We get it. The sun has gone down on a long day of working, cleaning, driving, eating, gym(ing)and more and that big comfy bed is practically singing your name. 

While COSMEDIX personally finds a nighttime skincare routine utterly indulgent, we understand that many people see it as the one thing standing between them and a night of beauty sleep. But hear us out. The truth is that your PM skincare is mega important to the overall well-being of your complexion and COSMEDIX wants to ensure you’re making the most of it.

So, if you’re looking to boost your night skincare routine—or just want to make sure your bedtime skin care habits are at their best—keep on scrolling to discover 4 COSMEDIX tips for the ultimate nighttime skincare routine:

Use Active Ingredients

Remember: A morning skincare routine is all about protection and a nighttime skincare routine is all about prevention. Because our skin hits “reset” at night, incorporating active ingredients like Retinol, Hyaluronic Acid and Salicylic Acid into your bedtime ritual is vital for optimal skincare results. This allows the skin to work it’s magic while you sleep as active ingredients soak in below the surface—ultimately giving the complexion an extra preventative boost.

Apply Skincare 1-2 Hours Before Bed

After a long day, we know it can be tempting to slather on skincare and jump right into bed… but you might want to think twice before slipping straight into the comfy pjs. No matter how “fast-absorbing” your skincare might it, it still takes time for those benefits to soak into the skin. And there is nothing worse than treating your complexion to indulgent ingredients, only to have them wind up on your pillowcase. Take it from us—apply your skincare 1-2 hours before bed to give your skin the time it needs to drink up active ingredients.

Don’t Sleep on Skincare Tools

Who says you can’t boost skin care product absorption and indulge in a bedtime massage? Easily add a little oomph to your nighttime routine by incorporating invigorating skincare tools. A facial roller and under eye applicator are both popular skincare tool picks, as they help revitalize the look of the complexion while massaging serums and moisturizers into the skin. Using a jade or Rose Quartz Facial Roller before bed can also help stimulate the complexion by reducing puffiness and rolling away tension.

Invest in a Night Cream

Sure, a daily moisturizer might have cut it in your teen years, but adult skin calls for adult skin care products. *Enter a Revitalizing Night Cream*. Night creams are typically thicker than your traditional daytime moisturizer and are packed with rich ingredients that encourage healthy skin renewal. Using a night cream to top off your night skin care routine not only helps restore the look of skin but helps replenish the complexion with necessary vitamins and nutrients.

And the good news? If you are on the market for your new favorite night cream, COSMEDIX has just the thing for you. Meet our latest launch: Resync Revitalizing Night Cream.
