Y2K-Era Body Mists Are Back & Better Than Ever
In the early 2000s, body mists — or body “splashes” — were a tweenager’s best friend. These yummy mists tended to be housed in coloful plastic bottles, and were generally considered the more playful younger sister to your typical perfumes. But as Millennials have grown up, so too have their favorite fragrance formats from the early aughts — and these days, body mists are back and better than ever. The Nostalgic Body Mist Glow UpIn the early aughts, body mist scents were often overwhelmingly fruity or sugary sweet, with hardly any options in between. If you didn’t like smelling like birthday cake or strawberry jam, you were pretty much out of luck. But now, the options on offer have been elevated to a whole other level. For one, the body mists of today are much longer lasting than their predecessors, positioning them much closer to traditional perfumes. Additionally, you can now find formulations that are designed for spritzing your body *and* hair, which are made with skin-and-strand-loving ingredients in lieu of drying alcohols. — @henryroseMost notably, though, shoppers are no longer limited to the same sickly-sweet scent profiles they were back in the early 2000s.
