Want to sleep? Just before slipping into bed, don't forget the 5 essential steps to moisturize the skin of your face. Every night, these gestures have become reflexes that allow me to have soft skin when I wake up.
The night brings advice, they say. It is also restorative. While I sleep, my cells regenerate and repair themselves. My body regains strength before the hard day that awaits it when I wake up.
This is why before going to bed, I never forget these 5 beauty gestures necessary for a good regeneration of my skin. Little things that make the difference.
It is often said, it is essential to hydrate the skin well. Our bodies are made up mostly of water, so it makes sense to drink enough of it. It's kind of the fuel for our body.
I drink a glass of water before going to bed, and I do the same in the morning when I wake up. It hydrates and purifies me, all to good.
No secret, make-up removal is an essential step. Anyone who goes to bed with their make-up on their skin risks pimples, imperfections of all kinds and excess sebum. If with that, I still haven't terrified you...
We offer homemade recipes on our site to make your cleansing milk. That way, no more excuses!
Start your make-up removal with your eyes because it is the area generally the most fragile and the most made up. We finish with the rest of the face and the neck. Make-up removal can be considered satisfactory when the cotton remains white after passing over the skin.
Generally, after removing makeup, I take care to wash my face. Makeup remover residue can leave the skin slightly oily, which is not necessarily pleasant.
I use a mild soap-free cleanser so that my skin doesn't get too dry. I lightly massage my face at the same time, for more softness before going to bed.
I pat my face lightly with a towel after rinsing the skin with clear water. And I'm almost ready to go snuggle up in my clean sheets.
Once my face is clean, I move on to hydration. I choose the moisturizer that matches my skin type (dry, oily or combination).
And I finish with a soothing night cream, patting my face lightly so that it soaks in well.
Finally, I put on lip balm to hydrate my lips all night long.
Because it's not just my face that suffers from dryness, I'm also thinking of the areas that need deep hydration more than anything.
I generously apply moisturizer on my feet, elbows, knees.
It's okay, I did everything. I'm finally ready to go to bed. My face and my body are hydrated, all they need is a good restorative sleep to face the day of tomorrow!
