Look Good 🧚‍♂️ Feel Good 🦋 (& Smell Good) 😌

Look Good Feel Good (& Smell Good)

To match a scent with your dress is to complete an outfit! Most of us spend a moderate amount of time trying to look good every time we go out. We may or may not possess fashion expertise, yet either way we never step out without spraying ourselves with fresh or spicy fragrance. To look good is to feel good and how would you feel good if you smell weird?

First impressions last longer than we’d like, and a major part of those is how people smell. A man dressed in a suit looks good, but if he smells of his socks, it would only be polite to avoid him. Smelling good is a big part of looking good. Just like Pinterest is our go-to spot for beach outfit inspos or Taylor Swift inspo outfits, we need a scent connoisseur to guide us in mixing different fragrances with separate occasions.

Scents Have Memories

What is scent memory? It is the way we remember certain odours with respect to incidents that have happened in our own lives. The scent of your mom cooking food back when you were a kid or the scent of your pupper who is the source of your happiness, all such memories associated with odours are stored together. You may not remember your memory distinctly, yet you will always remember how you felt back then every time you smell the same scent again.

There are studies that back this phenomenon. Odours associated with happy feelings continue to rouse happiness any time you smell them. Once you bake cookies with your friends, laughing as the night went on, you will always feel warmth whenever you smell cookies again. Isn’t that comforting?

Feel Good Hormones

Some hormones like serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin are known as feel-good hormones which help make you happy and de-stressed. There are many ways you can boost the secretion of these hormones, including using products that smell good. Essential oils, good-smelling candles, and warm baths with fragrant body care products, all help you to feel good about yourself and feel less anxious.

Smelling good every day boosts your confidence, improves your perceived first impressions, and makes you feel good about yourself. You may find yourself asking, “How to smell good all day, that too without perfume?” The answer is quite simple. Invest in the best body care products!
