Trying to sleep after your night skincare routine and constantly worrying if everything will rub off on the pillow? Youβre not alone.
A few small steps can make a big difference and help your skincare work while you sleep.
π Start by keeping your layers light. Use thin serums first and avoid applying too much product. More product does not mean better results.
π Give your skincare time to settle. Wait at least 15 to 20 minutes before lying down so your skin absorbs what it needs.
π Choose textures wisely at night. Gel or lotion based products absorb faster and feel less sticky compared to very heavy creams.
π Sleep on your back if possible, at least for the first part of the night. It reduces friction and helps products stay on your skin.
π Use a clean, smooth pillowcase. Silk or satin pillowcases reduce absorption and irritation and are gentler on skin and hair.
π If your skin feels greasy or uncomfortable, gently press a clean tissue on your face before bed to remove excess product without disturbing your routine.
Good skincare should feel comfortable, not stressful. When applied correctly, your products work with your skin while you rest.
If you are unsure about what to use at night or how to layer your products, a personalised routine can make all the difference. Book a consultation or drop your questions in the comments.
