DAILY CYCLES:

Your hormone levels shift during the morning so your energy amps up for your day and ramps down for your night’s rest. Your skin needs you to do something similar to support it.

In the morning, along with your usual skin care regimen, it’s important to protect your skin from daytime exposure to UV rays. A high-quality moisturizer is also a must. If you use foundation, make sure it has a sunscreen added as well.
Never go to bed without cleaning your skin. Even if you were inside most of the day, dirt and harmful pollutants floating in the air have become undesirable companions. These can clog pores and cause premature aging overtime. Besides, this stuff gets onto your pillowcase. You work hard each day; so does your skin. Treat it to what it needs: proper cleansing and replenishment with a moisturizer that’s specifically for nighttime repair.

Let’s face it. It’s easy to come home from a hard day’s work (or play) and go straight to bed, or wake up and run out the house without giving proper care to your skin. A few minutes can make a positive, long-term difference in how you look. Take care of your skin and it will take care of you.
