The Truth About Beauty Sleep: Good Zzzs, Good Skin

If daylight savings time has your sleep schedule out of whack, it’s time to get back on track. After all, sleep is essential for overall wellness — skin health included. Don’t worry. We’re here to help you sleep soundly again. Keep scrolling for our dreamiest tips for looking and feeling refreshed for spring.

  1. Turn your bedroom into a calming retreat.

Simple luxuries like spraying your linens with a lavender sleep mist and maintaining clean pillow cases, sheets, and blankets will make it easier to fall into (and stay in) a restful slumber.

  1. Take time to unwind.

Step away from the phone and turn off other technology at least 30 minutes before bed to help switch your brain into rest mode.

  1. Avoid eating large meals before bed.

Studies have found that going to bed with a full stomach can make it more difficult to fall and stay asleep. If you’re hungry, opt for a nutritious snack instead, such as a banana or yogurt.

  1. Exercise daily.

Moving your body every day has been proven to lessen the likelihood of insomnia and improve the quality of Zzzs.

  1. Stop hitting snooze.

As difficult as it may be, maintaining a consistent sleep schedule will get your body in the habit of winding down and waking up at the same time.

  1. Wash away the day.

Forgetting to cleanse at the end of the day means you’ll be sleeping with all that built-up makeup, sweat, and dirt all night. Rinse it all away in a warm, calming shower with our multi-tasking Reflekt 1 Daily Exfoliating Face Wash. Then follow with our other three products to spend less time on your skincare and more time unwinding.

  1. Perfect your AM and PM routines.

Tuck yourself into bed with a simple yet luxurious skincare regimen followed by relaxing rituals, like reading or journaling.
