What is the importance of sleep for your skin?
How can beauty sleep improve your skin?
You’ve probably already noticed: during periods of fatigue, your complexion looks dull, and your skin lacks radiance.
That’s because sleep plays a vital role in your skin’s health. Let’s explore the connection between sleep and a glowing complexion in this article.
Why is sleep important for our skin?
Sleep is essential for our skin because it is a regenerative time for the body. Indeed, it is during the night that several skin regeneration and repair processes take place.
When we enter a deep sleep phase, our body produces growth hormones that promote cell regeneration and collagen production. This collagen production gives the skin a plump, youthful effect. Sleep also allows for the elimination of toxins accumulated throughout the day, restoring the skin's natural radiance.
Is sleep effective against wrinkles?
In addition to helping maintain a glowing complexion, sleep actively contributes to fighting the appearance of wrinkles. In fact, lack of sleep can cause skin dehydration, which in turn accentuates wrinkles and fine lines.
Cellular regeneration mainly occurs during sleep, which is why getting quality restorative sleep is crucial in fighting the signs of aging.
How to sleep better?
To sleep better, it's recommended to have a light dinner, eat early, and reduce alcohol consumption to avoid heavy digestion that could make falling asleep more difficult.
The trick? End your meal with an infusion to promote sleep. Our favorite? The "Letting go" infusion for its relaxing and soothing effects.
A little evening routine.
Adopting an evening beauty and wellness routine before bed can help you fall asleep. For this, our Night Routine set is perfect.
With this routine, start with cleansing using CLEANSE. This cleansing oil offers you a cocooning ritual to remove impurities and makeup without drying out your skin.

Next, a few delicate spritzes of MIST, our hydrating and anti-stress mist, which provides freshness and relaxation with its floral scent of Melissa, Rose, and Geranium.
Next, a few drops of NIGHT, the anti-aging night serum-oil that smooths, regenerates, and promotes relaxation, thanks to Ylang Ylang and Petit Grain. It helps you unwind and sleep while smoothing and revitalizing your skin.
Its aromatic fragrance, with notes of rosy floral heart and white flowers, provides well-being and relaxation, perfect for sleep and self-massage! The scent of white flowers and Ylang Ylang releases psycho-emotional tension, making it ideal for drifting into a peaceful sleep.
Little tip: take a moment to deeply inhale the scent of the NIGHT serum in your hands before applying it by massaging your face, to enjoy its aromatherapy benefits that help you let go.
Additionally, if you're in the mood, you can complete your routine with a self-massage after applying your serum-oil. Besides its relaxing benefits, it helps detoxify the tissues through certain movements, facilitating the elimination of toxins—an essential process for a glowing complexion.
Finally, a small amount of CREAM, with its smoothing benefits thanks to Calendula, a natural source of retinol. It nourishes with Shea Butter and hydrates with its natural Hyaluronic Acid from bio-fermentation.
Finally, prioritize the consistency of your bedtime and the number of hours of sleep. It is recommended to sleep between 7 and 9 hours per night.
