7 Beauty Sleep Tips For Gorgeous Skin!

7 Beauty Sleep Tips For Gorgeous Skin!

Getting a good night's sleep is not only important for your mind and body it is also vital for healthy, glowing skin!

Whilst we are asleep our skin gets to work regenerating and healing itself. Our body’s hydration levels also re-balance themselves which enables our skin to recover moisture. If you don't get enough sleep it can result in poor water balance which can lead to bags and circles under your eyes, as well as drying out your skin and produce more visible wrinkles. Not only that but when you are sleep deprived your skin makes more of the stress hormone cortisol. The increase in cortisol can lead to stress and inflammation in the body which can increase the severity of skin conditions such as acne and eczema.

 

1. Breathe
If you struggle to drop off at night try this simple breathing trick, it's the breathing equivalent to counting sheep!
Take a big breath in for five seconds then exhale for another 5 seconds
Focus on the sound of your breath, your heartbeat and the pace you're breathing at.
Repeat these steps until you fall asleep.
2. Switch Off
To drop off to sleep with ease and get a deep and successful night’s kip it is important to ensure that you switch off mentally and literally, so make sure you stop looking at your phone, tablet and laptop screens for at least 1 hour before going to sleep so your mind and body can relax!
 
3. Exercise
