Do you usually take care of your skin? Do you follow a daily skincare routine? It’s important to pay attention to the needs of our skin to keep it beautiful, healthy, and youthful for a longer time. After all, skincare is responsible for balancing, replenishing nutrients, and protecting the skin from external aggressors.
One very important thing to remember is that this attention shouldn’t only happen when you wake up. Throughout the day, our skin is exposed to sunlight, wind, pollution, cold, cigarette smoke, and light, not to mention makeup. All of these factors contribute to premature aging. That’s why the nighttime is considered the perfect time to reverse potential damage. Additionally, during sleep, you can use stronger products in higher concentrations since there won’t be exposure to harmful factors. With this in mind, we’ve gathered some tips and steps you can and should incorporate into your NIGHTTIME BEAUTY ROUTINE.

➜ REMOVE MAKEUP WITH MAKEUP REMOVER OR MICELLAR WATER:
The first step to flawless skin is never leaving makeup residues on your face, which is why makeup remover is the first product to be used in your routine. For those with sensitive skin or those who didn’t wear makeup during the day, micellar water is a great choice as it removes all the impurities that the skin has absorbed, such as pollution and sweat.
➜ WASH YOUR FACE WITH A CLEANSER SPECIFIC TO YOUR SKIN TYPE:
The specific cleanser should not be neglected, especially at night. You can use liquid or bar products, but they should be suitable for your skin type, whether it’s dry, combination, or oily.
➜ BALANCE YOUR SKIN:
After thoroughly cleansing your skin, it’s time to balance the pH using toner or astringent. This product also helps to remove any makeup residue, sunscreen, and impurities that can stubbornly remain in your pores. Therefore, it’s essential for deep cleansing and balancing your skin to prepare it to receive the nutrients from other skincare products. If you have dry skin, it’s important to use a hydrating facial toner, and for oily skin, an astringent is recommended.
➜ DON’T FORGET HYDRATING AND ANTI-AGING CREAM:
The lack of hydration is one of the major factors in premature skin aging. Unfortunately, many women tend to forget or skip this step, especially those with oily skin. However, there are facial moisturizers for all skin types since the main function of the product is to replenish the water lost throughout the day.
For women in their mid-30s and older, it’s a good idea to boost your skincare routine with nighttime anti-aging or antioxidant creams that aid in skin rejuvenation and prevent the formation of fine lines.
