Ugh, washing my face. “I am way too tired” Here are some reasons that can help you remember why you want to wash your face every night.
Washing your face removes not only makeup but the dirt and dust that your face accumulated throughout the day. Makeup can clog pores and is filled with all the outside elements from the day like dirt, dust, smoke, smog etc. The makeup acts like a magnet for all of those things.
When you leave your makeup on too long your pores will get clogged and that can lead to enlarged pores, acne, rashes, and irritated skin. When you don’t remove your eye makeup it can cause eye irritation or even infection. Mascara can cause your lashes to become brittle and break, resulting in loss of lashes. So it’s very important to remove all eye makeup. Always use a gentle milk or gel cleanser, not soap that will strip the skin and leave it tight and dry.
Our bodies, as well as our skin, repairs itself at night while we sleep, a fresh clean skin will also absorb your night time skin care products better.
Your skin also needs to be exfoliated twice a week, exfoliate then apply your night serums and creams. Serums are more concentrated and the molecular structure allows them to absorb faster and deeper. Using a serum you will see results in about 7 days. Always be sure to have a skin analysis done with your Aesthetician to be sure you’re using the best products for your skin.
If you find you’re just too tired before bed, then when you get home. Wash your face, then you can unwind, relax and enjoy your evening.
