The human body recovers at night, and this is no secret to anyone. We can use this fact to improve the condition of the skin and hair. You need to give yourself just a few minutes before bed, and in the morning you will notice improvements.
What Things You Should Do Before Going to Bed?
1. Facial Before Bed
Skin condition plays an important role in the attractiveness of any person. By the end of the day, stressful situations and fatigue are reflected on the face. To “wash off” all the negative consequences of the past day, and wake up fresh in the morning, you should make masks before going to bed. Apply them to your face.
2. Aloe Facial Mask
Aloe is a real find for the fair sex. The plant has great benefits for the epidermis and is suitable for all skin types. You need to choose a suitable mask for yourself and apply it 2 times a week. This simple procedure has a rejuvenating effect, eliminates various skin rashes, and small wrinkles. Besides, aloe can whiten the skin tone. Remember to massage your skin in a circular motion.
3. Under Eye Mask with Vitamin E
The skin under the eyes requires more thorough cosmetic care, as it is very thin and therefore prone to early aging. To maintain hydration and tone of the skin under the eyes is necessary to make a mask with vitamin E. You can buy it at any pharmacy.
To enhance the effect, you can mix it with olive oil. But you should not abuse this tool. It is enough to make such a mask once a week, adding only 1 – 2 drops of vitamin to the mixture. Otherwise, skin irritation may develop.
4. Castor Oil for Eyelashes and Eyebrows
Any woman dreams of long eyelashes and thick eyebrows. A simple remedy – castor oil – will help facilitate and accelerate the path to your dream. Apply it every night before bed with a cotton swab or a clean old mascara brush.
5. Do Not Drink Alcohol
We strictly forbid you to consume alcohol before going to bed. It will not only harm your skin but your whole body. Making your face dull, it will make the glow of skin fade away. So, get yourself out of this trouble and avoid drinking. Those who are not able to do it themselves should contact the alcohol abuse hotline for better guidance on alcohol addiction. They will let you know via phone, how you can get better.
6. Coconut Oil for Lips
Vegetable oils such as coconut, olive, and sesame oils are very effective in treating dry lips. If you put them on before bed, then in the morning the lipstick or lip gloss will fall into an even layer. Also, you can use different masks prepared with these ingredients.
7. Hair Care
Like skin, hair is exposed to harsh environments every day. Because of this, they lose their natural shine and freshness. The main secret to maintaining the beauty of curls is to moisturize them. Of course, eating and drinking water play a big role in this. But home remedies for hair care will also help. The simplest thing is to mix apple cider vinegar with water (1 tablespoon per 1 liter of water) and apply the mixture to your hair using a spray bottle.
8. Hand Care
The condition of the skin of the hands can help others to determine the age of a woman. But if you use the following secret, you can deceive others. Wash your hands and then massage the scrub onto them. Rinse it off well. Moisturize your hands with natural cream or vegetable oil.
Put on special gloves and go to bed. After waking up, you need to apply cuticle oil to the area around the nail. This procedure not only moisturizes the skin of the hands but also makes them soft.
9. Feet Care
Legs also require self-care. While you sleep, you can get rid of coarse heels. To do this, “treat” the legs with a scrub, and then apply coconut, olive, or sesame oil. Be sure to wear socks. Thanks to this article, you can make sure that self-care does not require expensive tools and a lot of time. It is enough to purchase several universal products (base vegetable oil). Mix them or with other products you like and apply them to the body before going to bed.
10. Move the Phone Away
The more gadgets distract you from sleep in the evening, the more difficult it will be to rest and recover at night. It’s not easy, but it is better to send the last messages at least an hour before bedtime. And then leave your smartphone or tablet on the nightstand or even in another room. Harmful rays from such devices at night can harm your skin.
11. Turn Off All Lights
Studies show that the included light not only interferes with sleep but also affects excess weight. According to scientists, the darker the room you sleep in, the more likely you are to maintain a healthy weight. Sound sleep affects the quality of the skin.
12. Take A Bath or Shower
A sharp drop in body temperature contributes to better falling asleep, which is why it is useful to take a warm or even hot shower or bath before bed. Having cooled down, it will be easier to fall asleep, and the sleep will become deeper and longer. It will relax your skin and make it glow.
13. Observe The 20 Minute Rule
It’s very simple: if you can’t fall asleep, 20 minutes after you went to bed, it’s better to get up. Leave the bedroom and do something not too exciting. Start reading a long and boring book or watch golf – most likely, very soon the body will signal that it is ready to try to sleep again. The better you sleep, the healthier your skin will be.
Summing Up
Scolding yourself for insomnia and counting how many hours are left to sleep is useless, and it can only bring harm. Put aside all business and forget about problems, so that the very realization of the opportunity to rest helps you to relax. Normal healthy sleep is possible only if you are not too worried about it. We are hopeful that the above tips will help you improve your skincare regime.
