The importance of a Nighttime Routine 🌙
During the day your skin care should reflect your skin needs and protection. At night, especially while we sleep our skin renews and repairs itself. Adding certain products to your evening routine can maximize the effects of each product depending on the goal you are trying to achieve.
NIGHTTIME ROUTINE BENEFITS 🌙
✨Cleansing your skin at night helps to remove harmful environmental factors you have encountered during the day, such as UV rays, pollution, dirt and free radicals. All of these elements eventually result in the aging of the skin. Using a gentle cleanser to wash away dirt and oils should be the first step in your nighttime routine.
✨Skin cells undergo cell regeneration while you sleep, so adding products that provide nutrients for your skin, help aid your skin in maximizing the cells regenerative process which results in younger looking skin. Using antioxidants such as Vitamin A and Vitamin C can be very beneficial
✨Skin experiences moisture loss at night, so using moisturizers with hydrating ingredients and humectants are important, a great ingredient to check for is Hyaluronic Acid
✨Temperature of skin rises at night as well as becoming more acidic, this combination results in drier skin. When skin is dry it increases the chances of irritation and sensitivities, therefore using ingredients which deeply moisturize the skin is beneficial at night. Some of these can include lightweight plant oils and shea butter.
✨ ✨ One of the most important things that happens at night is HIGH SKIN PE*******ON, which means that the skins barrier is down and it can easily absorb your skincare products. Products that aid in anti aging and brightening are best used in your nighttime routine because they aren’t competing with the effects of sunlight. If you are suffering from Acne, products that aid in acne control are a perfect addition at night!
