A good night’s sleep is just what your skin needs to continue looking and functioning at its best, bringing a whole new meaning to the term “beauty sleep”.
Taking the time to rest is the best thing for our bodies and minds combined.
HOW DOES SLEEP AFFECT YOUR SKIN?
Sleep is an essential function that allows your body and mind to recover, and when you wake up, feeling rested and refreshed is essential to our wellbeing! Lack of sleep can lead to several issues like reduced cognition, delayed reactions, attention lapses, mood shifts and not to mention the repercussions to your mental and physical health.
Sleeping less than the recommended time can impact more than your mood, affect your weight, mental health and your overall immune system. After a full day of protecting us against UV rays, pollution, germs and bacteria, our skin also needs time to heal and regenerate. Without a good night’s rest, you may notice an increase in some skin issues like dark under eye circles, more prominent fine lines, reduced elasticity and a drier, blotchy complexion.

HOW DOES SLEEP BENEFIT YOUR SKIN?
According to research, healthy adults need anywhere from seven to nine hours of sleep per night. During this time, your body, including your skin, enters recovery mode and repairs itself. Skin can heal three times quicker overnight and blood flow increases, removing toxins as well as replacing and creating new cells.
Adults need at least seven hours of sleep each night, and you can maximize each hour with some ZO nighttime essentials.
