An esthetician’s guide for simple evening skin routine for anti-aging
When it comes to a healthy and youthful skin barrier, a key factor that many people aren’t aware of is how crucial your nighttime ritual is.
Intro
Your Nighttime skin care routine supports all the cellular activity that will occur while you’re sleeping. By preparing your skin before sleep you’re giving yourself a chance to obtain optimal skin health. Also what happens to the skin during the night can drastically improve treatment outcomes.
Skin is active during night time sleep.
When we go to sleep, the skin wakes up and goes to work. Toxins are removed, new skin cells are born as dead ones are released, and many anti-aging actions occur. If the skin is not cleaned, treated and nourished, the skin cannot perform its vital functions. In fact, many people go to bed without cleansing or removing environmental toxins, makeup, etc. This not only prohibits the skin to do its work, the skin absorbs these toxins and ages the skin dramatically and can cause skin asphyxiation. The skin is your largest organ, and it needs oxygen just like we do. So, if you’re going to skip your skin regime, do so in the morning, never at night. The best thing you could do in the morning is a quick cleanse, and a wonderful sunscreen to protect you.
Step 01: Cleanse the skin.
Use a non-abrasive, gentle cleanser that will clean off the environmental toxic and makeup residue from the day’s activities. We highly recommend using our esthetician’s favorite HALE AND HUSH CLEANSER, as it’s gentle but thoroughly cleans the skin from impurities.

Your skin can lose a lot of water during sleep.

If you’re looking for the perfect hydrating moisturizer for your evening skin routine, we recommend HALE AND HUSH Vital Lipid Lotion packed with powerful plant-based anti-aging ingredients to repair and strengthen skin’s barrier function and increase elasticity.
Evening vs Morning Skin Routine?
When you get up in the morning, the skin has excreted dead skin cells and toxins from the skin so it’s important to rinse and replenish, and re-protect. So if you only take a shower in the morning, please don’t forget to do your nighttime routine, because this is truly more important than the morning routine except for wearing your sunscreen! Sun damage is 90% of aging so never ever forget your sunscreen.
In Summary
At night, the skin is responsible for detoxifying and regenerating. Not only can an intentional evening routine for your skin feel nourishing and calming before going to bed, it will truly benefit your skin to do its job while you sleep.
