Grown Alchemist Age-Repair Sleep Masque

The best way to get and maintain good skin is to always get enough sleep. No one can contest how beneficial clocking in zzzs is when to comes to keeping lines away and developing a natural glow.

 

No matter how essential, however, sleep seems to always elude us. My regular schedule for the week has me going to bed late but waking up early in the morning. I’m feeling the rush of the last few months of the year. We’re getting busier as the holidays approach.

 

That’s why I got to thinking about beauty products which can boost the effect of sleep. Or at least products you can use just before you call it a night to get the most out of your beauty sleep, no matter how many hours you get.

 

I’m not saying you shouldn’t aim for better sleeping habits because of these products. In fact, maybe these products will help you make sleep a priority.

 

James Read Tan Extending Sleep Serum nourishes the skin.

 

Sleep serum

 

As a fan of self-tanning, I try my best to maintain a sun-kissed glow through something like the James Read Tan Extending Sleep Serum. Available from Net-A-Porter, it also nourishes the skin with aloe vera, antioxidant tea leaf extract and antiaging hyaluronic acid. Apply it on your face, neck and body before you slip into your PJs.

 

Kora Organics has a Calming Lavender Mist for people who need to induce deep sleep. Aside from lavender, the mist also has flower water, noni fruit extract, aloe vera and bergamot water to help you destress after a long day.

 

Consider Sunday Riley Luna Night Sleeping Oil if you’re into facial oils. This product is slowly becoming a cult favorite. It promises youthful, luminous, even-toned skin in the morning. It uses retinol to reduce the visibility of pores, while blue tansy and German chamomile essential oil calms down redness. Apply a small amount after cleansing and exfoliating to boost moisturizing at night.

 

Grown Alchemist Age-Repair Sleep Masque

 

Reduce wrinkles

 

Another product for the face is the Grown Alchemist Age-Repair Sleep Masque. This lightweight overnight mask is made with oligopeptide to reduce wrinkles. It’s advised to press this gently into the face, neck, and decolletage as the final step to your skin routine.

 

Slip Silk pillowcases can make sleep a luxe experience.

 

If you want to truly spoil yourself, you can go for a silk pillowcase and sheets. Silk pillowcases are said to be beneficial to the skin and hair, and they don’t tug and have less friction on the skin so you don’t develop wrinkles. A popular pick is Slip with their Pure Silk Pillowcase in a variety of colors. You can also get a matching sleep mask to double down on sleeping like royalty.

 

No-rinse SachaJuan Overnight Hair Repair

 

Hair treatment

 

For hair, there’s the SachaJuan Overnight Hair Repair with sea algae and mineral extracts for strength, elasticity and shine. After washing your hair at night, apply this evenly. In the morning, you don’t have to rinse it out as it would have been absorbed by your hair.

 

Phyto Secret De Nuit Intense Hydration Night Treatment

 

Another hair treatment you can try is Phyto Secret De Nuit Intense Hydration Night Treatment. This is particularly for dull and dry hair as it provides deep conditioning and restoration. Get this one at Rustan’s The Beauty Source.

 

For tired feet

 

Feet shouldn’t be exempt from some TLC, too. Tired feet can benefit from Earth Therapeutics Aloe Moisture Socks. Apply your chosen lotion or foot cream before wearing it so you’re moisturized when you wake up.

 

Since the weather can get very dry that causes cracked lips and deprives our skin of moisture, you may also get a Levoit Cool Mist Humidifier. It helps you breathe better, avoid contracting airborne diseases, and can aid you with aromatherapy.

 

You can choose a few of these helpers suited to your needs to make the most out of your sleeping hours.
