The night is a crucial time for our skin, because while we are in the arms of Morpheus, our cells take advantage of it to regenerate deeply. During these precious hours of sleep, the epidermis is in turmoil. It ensures that our skin is properly repaired to face the day and protect it from external aggressions. But the skin can also need a little help to be sure to offer us a luminous complexion in the morning without any trace of fatigue... Are you ready to optimize your sleep hours? Follow the guide!

HOW DOES THE SKIN REGENERATE AT NIGHT?

Once you are snuggled up under your comforter and sleep is gradually taking hold of you, your cells are in the starting blocks to begin regenerating your skin. At night, our body has favorable conditions to renew itself. The skin is not attacked by external aggressions and benefits from a moment of tranquility and calm. The cell renewal mechanism really starts around 11 pm and is at its peak around 1 am. During this nocturnal calm, the skin cells multiply 3 times more than during the day. This cell renewal corresponds to cell division: the skin's stem cells are divided in two. The first part gradually rises to the surface of the skin to fulfill its protective barrier functions and is eliminated by forming a horny layer. The other part remains in the same place to divide again. Between 11 p.m. and 4 a.m., the skin activates more blood circulation to get energy and start cell renewal. The skin's pores take advantage of this quiet time to open and evacuate the toxins accumulated during the day. It is also during these sleeping hours that the skin is more permeable and therefore more receptive to treatments.

From the age of 25-30, cell renewal becomes less and less efficient and the face shows the first expression lines. The skin is more vulnerable to external aggressions and may need a little help to keep a fresh and luminous complexion in the morning and boost cell regeneration. Fortunately, adopting a good evening routine and applying the right care products can help!

OPTIMIZE SKIN RENEWAL AT NIGHT (WITH THE RIGHT GESTURES!)

Make-up removal and skin cleansing

To allow our skin to renew itself in the best possible conditions and to prepare it for the application of skincare products, we head to the bathroom for makeup removal and cleansing. These are the most important steps to allow the skin cells to do their work while we sleep. If we forget these steps, what happens? Pollution, dust, dirt, sebum and dead cells accumulated during the day are happy to give you pimples, blackheads, dullness, dryness and redness in the morning. The skin will not have been able to renew itself properly as it is clogged with other substances.

For makeup removal and skin cleansing, we adopt the double or triple cleansing ritual. Double cleansing is suitable for people who do not wear makeup. This routine consists of simply cleansing the skin with an organic facial cleanser to remove all impurities, and soothing it with a rose water treatment mist to restore radiance to the complexion and eliminate traces of limescale (which promote skin dryness).

The second ritual, the triple cleanse, is perfect for people who wear makeup. It consists of a makeup removal withorganic makeup remover oil in order to gently dissolve the materials (even waterproofs), followed by a facial cleansing with an organic cleanser. Finally, as with the double cleansing, we finish with a bit of rose water care mist that we delicately apply on the skin with a washable cotton pad.

In less than 10 minutes, your skin is perfectly clean and ready to receive the active ingredients of the care products!

Tip: Once or twice a week, perform a facial scrub with fruit acids to revive the complexion's radiance and remove all the small dead skin cells. Without exfoliation, dead skin remains on the surface of the face. They make the complexion dull and hinder the proper renewal of cells.

MOISTURIZING THE FACE

Now it's time tomoisturize your skin. Moisturizing is an essential step in maintaining a luminous complexion, delaying the appearance of signs of aging, but most importantly, helping the top layer of the skin to perform its protective role during the day. To select the right moisturizer for your skin, it is important to know your needs and determine your skin type. Young skin, often combination to oily, prefers light textures such as aloe vera gel, which regulates excess sebum and cleanses the skin while intensely moisturizing. Mature skin prefers the application of a cream enriched with plant oils and butters and an anti-aging serum that stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin. The night is the ideal time to apply a specific treatment to target the skin's needs and take full advantage of the active ingredients.

Extra help for a beautiful skin in the morning

Self-massaging your face. When you apply your night care (moisturizer or face mask), take the opportunity to massage your face. Self-massaging your face stimulates blood circulation and allows the skin care products to penetrate better. The skin thus benefits fully from the active ingredients! These massages alsoreduce wrinkles, relax the facial features and calm the mind. You enter a phase of well-being that allows you to release the tensions of the day and ensures a peaceful and restful sleep.

Good body hydration. Good hydration of the body is essential to help the cells regenerate more easily at night and to prevent the body from being too dehydrated during those 8-9 hours of sleep. So, before going to sleep, we treat ourselves to a good infusion. Verbena, mint, linden, lemon balm... There is a nice variety of herbal teas. In addition, they are full of benefits depending on the plants chosen.

A light meal. In the evening, avoid a royal feast. An overly large meal causes digestive problems and impairs sleep quality. We prefer a light dinner with varied and balanced foods. Foods rich in vitamin C (citrus fruits, peppers, kiwis) help boost cell regeneration. Also, avoid eating dinner just before going to bed. Digestion increases the body temperature, but at night the body needs to lower the temperature to lull you to sleep.

Regular bedtime. Cell renewal is optimal if we go to bed at the same time and before midnight. Our body recovers much better and the different sleep cycles are respected. Our skin has all the time it needs to work the cells and absorb the active ingredients of our skin care products!
