In the pursuit of radiant and healthy skin, the key is not just the products you use but also when you use them. Crafting a day and night skincare routine tailored to your skin's needs can make a significant difference in achieving that coveted glow. In this article, we will be exploring the art of skincare timing and creating the perfect day and night routine that works best for your skin.
Understanding Circadian Rhythms
First things first, you need to understand your skin's natural circadian rhythms. Just as your body has an internal clock, your skin also follows a similar pattern. For example, in the day your skin is exposed to environmental stressors, whereas in the night, your skin is more focused on repairing itself and regeneration.
Our new Sleep Range can help you with just this. Our collection of pillow mist, facial oil and sensorial balm can help you feel relaxed before drifting off to sleep. A good night’s rest is essential for your skin’s health, and as well as having a well put together beauty routine for the day time, it’s also vital for the night.
Daytime Skincare with Hemsley Organics
Speaking of, let’s start with your daytime skincare routine. Firstly, we would recommend starting with cleansing the routine. Every good morning beauty regime starts with a gentle cleanser to remove any impurities and prepare your skin for the day ahead.
A toner is also recommended. A toner works by removing excess oil and providing a clean canvas. Toners enhance the absorption of subsequent skincare products which allows the active ingredients in serums, moisturisers, and treatments to penetrate the skin more effectively.
Next up, we would recommend a serum or moisturiser. By opting for our Age Defying Intensive Face serum. A serum is full of antioxidants that will combat free radicals throughout the day and leave your skin feeling nourished. Follow up your serum with a lightweight and hydrating moisturiser.
Sun Protection All The Way
You might be wondering, why are we talking about SPF in the winter? Well, that’s because you should be wearing your sun protection all year round - yep, you read that right! No matter the weather, your skin needs protection from the UV rays. Without a good level of SPF, your fine line and wrinkles will become more prominent. Applying sunscreen is crucial during the day to prevent premature ageing and sun damage.
Transitioning to Night
As we’ve said above, a night time skincare routine is just as important as a daytime one. To wind down for the day, we recommend a gentle cleanse before bed. This is important for removing makeup and pollutants that may have accumulated throughout the day.
Also, grab a night cream, such as our Hydrating Age Defying Night Cream. With a cream specifically for the evening, you can seal in the benefits of your night time routine and ensure your skin remains hydrated throughout the night.
