How much do you know about your skin at night? Maybe you’ve heard about the benefits of sleep for skin, or that an overnight treatment is a must-have for waking up with a better complexion.
Well, as the sleep and night skin science experts, we’re here to talk you through the fact and fiction of skin at night. Discover everything you need to know about skin’s circadian rhythm, “beauty sleep” and more to elevate your PM routine.
TRUE: Your Skin Has a Circadian Rhythm
Did you know? Like our entire body, skin has a circadian rhythm. While we sleep, skin naturally renews, making night the optimal moment to recover from the effects of the day. When your skin’s “clock” and critical night renewal are disrupted by everyday life—endless scrolling, a busy schedule and poor sleep—it shows on skin.
The good news? Your nighttime routine can help optimize skin’s natural rhythm of renewal and protection.
FALSE: “Beauty Sleep” Isn’t Real
Have you ever looked in the mirror after a poor night of sleep and noticed more tired, dull-looking skin? Our research revealed that there’s a major connection between quality sleep each night and visible signs of aging. Getting your “beauty sleep” nightly can help with the look of fine lines, dryness, dehydration, uneven skin tone and more.
Our bestselling Advanced Night Repair Serum (aka “beauty sleep in a bottle”) can help sleep-deprived skin appear more awake with an overnight boost of radiance and moisture.
TRUE: Natural Collagen Production Peaks at Night
Your skin produces the most collagen, a major component in maintaining youthful-looking skin, at night. That’s why the nighttime hours are essential in giving skin the building blocks it needs to optimize its natural lifting, firming and anti-wrinkle activities.
FALSE: You Don’t Need a Dedicated Nighttime Skincare Routine
Did you know that natural skin renewal is at its peak between 11pm and 2am? Formulated with exclusive ingredients like our 1-in-60 million Night Peptide, our high-performance Advanced Night Repair nighttime skincare routine is curated to help optimize skin’s natural rhythm of renewal and protection.
