Not having enough sleep and worried about your skin for dating? Want a nearly flawless skin for your unforgettable date? With these few easy tips, you can impress your date with glowing skin.
1. Cleanse
A cleanser is always a starting point of beauty routine. Your skin type will determine the right cleanser that suits your needs. Gentle products are suitable for oily skin or dry skin while a milky, non-comedogenic cleanser is suitable for sensitive skin. Cleansing can control oil production, remove impurities, and eliminate the appearance of pores. Use cleansing milk can moisturize your skin and maintain its pH balance. You are encouraged to do double-cleansing if you’re wearing makeup. This can be done by using a facial cleansing oil first to remove makeup, then, gently massaged your skin with a foaming cleanser to remove any leftover impurities.
2. Use Retinol
Retinol or a Vitamin A derivative in the form of a serum or cream can increase the surface cell production and make your skin look brighter.
3. Use a Moisturizer that Works Overnight
Before going to sleep, it is better to give your skin some rest by applying a moisturizer formulated with antioxidants to restore any damaged parts of the skin. You will wake up with exquisitely revived skin. Additionally, you can use a sleeping cream to nourish the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles for younger-looking skin.
4. Sleep At Least 8 Hours
Although it may sound easy, many adults failed to get at least eight hours of sleep. But, try to make it before your date so that your skin could increase the production of the surface cell during the night and your eyes will look energized. It can be done by reducing screen time (cell phone, tablet, computer) at least an hour before bed. This is because the blue light transmitted from the screens can influence the levels of melatonin, which makes it harder for us to fall asleep.
5. Hydration
Your skin will never look radiant unless you properly hydrate your body. Throughout the day, you should drink water, herbal teas or fruit juices. Fruits also give hydration and contain antioxidants.
