5 Overnight beauty hacks every beauty lover should know
Maximize your beauty sleep with these brilliant and nifty hacks.
After a long day at work, as much as our minds and bodies deserve a rest our skin deserves a pampering routine as well. Due to the lack of the time, the routine gets short changed and washing our faces and applying a cream or two becomes the norm. Well, all that is going to change as we introduce the lazy girl’s guide to overnight beauty hacks.
Let these hacks do their work on your skin while you get a good night’s worth of rest.
ACHIEVING BEAUTIFUL WAVES
If you’re looking to try a new hairstyle but you do not wish to wake up an hour earlier the next day to prepare for it, there is good news – you don’t have to spend an hour but just 5 minutes the night before. Simply divide your hair into two sections and twist them away from your face into a bun. Secure the twisted sections with a loose ribbon or rubber band and sleep away. Let your hair down the next morning and you’ll have gorgeous curls.
PROTECTING YOUR LATE NIGHT MANICURE
We have all tried painting our nails before bed time only to wake up with smudge or creased nails. Protect your late night efforts by using nail caps. These affordable tools are easily available and are the perfect shields for your beautiful nail work. To protect your nails further, use a fast drying top coat.
SMELL GOOD THE NEXT DAY
While your favourite perfume may be a spritz away the next day, it may be the last thing on your mind before heading out of the door. Kill two birds with one stone by moisturizing your body with a fragranced lotion. Not only will you wake up with baby soft skin the next day, your skin will also smell amazing. Try a blend of scents – it will not only help you sleep better but help the fragrance last longer the next morning.
ADDRESS SKIN CONCERNS
Your skin repairs the best when you are asleep. This would be the best time to treat skin concerns such as pesky zits. Using a treatment such as a drying lotion can help to calm the redness and swelling. Simply dab a tiny amount on the affected area and wake up with calmer skin the next morning.
PAMPER YOUR SKIN
If you are running short of time to apply a sheet mask or even a wash off mask, opt for the best alternative – a sleeping mask. This type of masking is fuss-free and simply requires a rinse off the next morning, leaving you with smooth radiant skin. With many different types to choose from, you can pamper your skin every night without fail.
