It’s no secret that a good night’s sleep can do wonders for our health and mind however, did you know that sleep can affect our skin? Yes, beauty rest is a real thing.

Multiple studies have demonstrated that even one night of poor sleep (less than 5 hours of sleep) can lead to the temporary worsening appearance of dark under-eye circles, puffy eyes, droopy corners of the mouth, hanging eyelids, and fine lines! Long-term sleep deprivation can lead to more permanent changes such as deeper wrinkles, decreased elasticity, increased skin dryness, and uneven skin tone.

A good night’s rest helps the skin in many ways as it allows our skin cells to repair and regenerate. In addition, our bodies produce growth hormones, melatonin, and cortisol -all of which work together to promote collagen production and stimulate antioxidants to protect our skin, allowing our skin to appear more youthful, supple, and smooth.

While one night of poor won’t age you overnight, it’s important to develop and maintain healthy sleep habits to slow down the aging process. Invest in and utilize products that aid in the skin’s reparation, renewal, and restoral processes, such as those that contain peptides, hyaluronic acids, retinol/ bakuchiol, and antioxidants.
