Who doesn’t love bed time?! Its the time of the day where you get to snuggle up all cozy in your bed, relax from all the stress in the world and daze off into a deep calming sleep.
Well while your mind may be at rest, that doesn’t necessarily mean the rest of your body is. Did you know that while you sleep, many of your hormones are increasing in production to help give you better skin? Melatonin is the hormone associated with sleep, and while you sleep it helps to fight age spots and diminish fine lines. Other hormones begin to repair the cells that produce collagen to maintain your skin’s elasticity and tightness. Who would have known that while your mind might not be aware of it, there is so much going on in your body! While your hormones are helping on the inside, you still need to aid your skin on the outside. By using an intense nourishing balm and oil at night, your skin will be able to lock in moisture to help keep your skin soft and supple. When you sleep your body loses moisture and your cells need to maintain a certain amount of hydration to stay active so we also recommend using a hydrating mask before you sleep to give your skin the nutrients and water it needs. So get a comfy in bed and get a good nights rest and you are on your way to better, healthier skin!
