10 COMMON NIGHT TIME BEAUTY HABITS YOU SHOULD BE DOING AND AREN'T

www.facebook.com/fola.fasolaYour body does a lot of recovery during the night. Are you helping it? The beauty rituals you perform before going to bed are essential for having healthy, glowing skin and for making your hair smooth and silky. Here are some of the most important things you should get in the habit of doing before going to bed, in case you are avoiding these vital beauty steps.
1 CLEAN YOUR MAKEUP THOROUGHLY
You are certainly aware of this one but are you meticulous about makeup removal?
Use the right kind of makeup removal product and wipe your face and your eyes gently. All traces of mascara, eyeliner, powder and foundation should be removed before you go to bed.
2 USE A PURIFYING MASK
This ritual is very important for ladies that have a sensitive skin and for the ones trying to overcome a particular problem. A spot treatment with a purifying mask will give the active ingredients more time to be absorbed and to deliver better results.
3 EYE SKIN TREATMENT
Apply eye cream to this delicate skin. Even if you are still young and your skin is beautifully elastic, the cream will be essential. Hydrating the delicate skin underneath the eyes will prevent the appearance of fine wrinkles and potential puffiness.
4 EXFOILATION
There are various leave-on exfoliation products you can apply to your skin at night. The skin does a lot of repairing during the night and getting rid of dead cells is an excellent way of feeling rejuvenated in the morning.
5 PROPER HEAD SUPPORT
Is your pillow in good condition? You may actually consider two pillows during the night to give your head proper support. This way, you will be preventing eye puffiness.
The principle is very simple – you will be relying on gravity. Keeping your head at a higher level than your body will help with lymph draining and it will also improve your blood circulation.
6 USE A HUMIDIFIER IN THE BEDROOM
The air humidifier is one of the most important appliances that your home needs and probably misses. Dry air can lead to irritation and allergic reactions. It will also have negative consequences on skin health.
The humidifier will help you keep your skin properly hydrated. Use a moisturizing cream to increase the benefits even further.
7 MOISTURIZE YOUR HANDS
Get in the habit of putting hand cream on each night. The best varieties are greasy and plain. They will protect both the skin and your nails.
During the day, your hands are exposed to all kinds of environmental influences. Frequent washing leaves the skin dry, as well. This is why the hand skin is very vulnerable and should be moisturized properly during the night. The rule applies even for people that have oily skin.
8 WHAT KIND OF PILLOW CASE DO YOU USE?
To keep your hair healthy and beautiful, you should opt for a silk or a satin pillowcase. These tend to be more expensive than the cotton varieties but they can produce amazing benefits.
The cotton fibers are much rougher than fabrics like silk. This is why your hair may feel matted and lifeless in the morning. If you prefer cotton, you should get in the habit of changing the pillowcase every few days.
9 GET ENOUGH SLEEP
This is another essential that everybody is familiar with but few people are actually doing. Make sure you get your eight hours of sleep per night. You will feel refreshed and the sleep will have a positive impact on your appearance.
The body needs proper relaxation. While you are sleeping, many organs and tissues are recovering from harmful everyday influences. Try going to bed a bit earlier than usual and you will notice the difference in the morning.
10 KEEP YOUR HAIR FROM YOUR FACE
This is very important if you suffer from acne or a skin problem. The hair is covered by a thin layer of protective oil. When it gets to the face, this oil could aggravate any skin condition that you are struggling with. You will simply need to pull your hair back in a loose ponytail or a braid.t
