Tips and tricks for a healthy pre-sleep skin care routine

After a hectic day, sleep is the time when your skin can rejuvenate and relax. We’re sure you must be following multiple day-time skin routines like applying sunscreen but most people skip their night skin care routine which is equally essential. Here are a few easy to follow pre-sleep skin care tips.

Cleanse your face thoroughly

This is the first and most important part of the routine which cannot be ignored. Wash your face with a cleansing lotion suitable for your skin type before sleeping or applying any other night cream. Post washing your face wait for 5-10 mins to let your skin breathe before applying any night cream.

Hydrating your skin

The main complaint for night skin issues are that the skin gets dry overnight due to less moisture/hydration. Apply a sleep hydrating mask to prevent this. We suggest the Dior Hydra Life Jelly Sleeping Mask. This mask is to be applied just like a gel cream and kept overnight. It hydrates, cleanses, moisturizes and brightens the skin. A sleep hydrating mask also adds a cooling sensation to your face, de-stressing you and adding to a comfortable sleep.

Apply an under-eye cream

Dark circles and puffiness is the biggest problem associated with lack of sleep! To prevent this issue during lesser and hectic sleep hours apply an eye treatment cream before sleeping. We suggest the Shisheido Eye Correcting Cream. Massage a little of the cream below your eye area to wake up with bright eyes. However, make sure you evenly spread the cream for it to get absorbed in your skin before you sleep. Wrong application might cause irritation in the eyes while sleeping.
