We’ve all done it; going to bed without having taken off your makeup happens to the best of us but it is one of beauty’s biggest sins. If you regularly hit the sheets without fully cleansing your face, you’ll be storing up a whole host of skincare woes.
WRINKLES: Sleeping with your makeup is instantly going to age your skin, simple. So find the time to have a proper cleanse – it’ll only take a minute and I promise you, your complexion will be very grateful!
My New Edition Cleanser contains my patented ABEETOXIN® formula so it not only deeply cleans but also tightens and firms. The addition of vitamin A helps resurface and repair cells, and also promotes eyelash growth.
DRY SKIN: By not removing your foundation at bedtime you starve the skin of essential oxygen, making it dry and sensitive. Sleep is vital when it comes to repairing, regenerating and restructuring the skin but you can help this process by finding time for an effective routine before you go to bed.
Thanks to its vitamin B content my Overnight Success Oxygen Cream releases oxygen to detoxify and replenish your complexion. Perfect for dull or damaged skin, its anti-ageing properties help boost collagen production.
BREAKOUTS: Unsurprisingly, if you continue to hit the sack without properly cleaning your face first then you will become far more prone to spots, especially around the chin and nose, and across your cheeks.
My Willowbee Mask & Cleanse not only detoxes your skin, but it heals imperfections too. It’s the first Heaven product to contain the bark from the willow tree, a natural and organic alternative to aspirin. Because of this it is ideal for all skin types, especially those prone to breakouts.
BLOCKED PORES: Pores are tiny openings in the skin, connected to your hair follicles. They release our natural oils – sebum – to ensure skin is healthy and moisturised. But just as night follows day, leaving makeup overnight means bacteria mixes with the sebum and causes blockages, making pores appear larger and darker.
Give your skin a helping hand with regular exfoliation; my Bee Peel has a potent mix of ingredients – including ABEETOXIN®, organic coconut and raw cane sugar – to resurface and even out tone, minimises the visibility of dark spots, blemishes and enlarged pores.
IRRITATED EYES: If your eyes are going to spend the night fighting off leftover bacteria then they will look red and feel sore by morning. The delicate skin around them will be dry, leading to dark circles and puffiness.
My hard-working yet gentle Heavenly Eyes Regenerating Complex is ideal for those mornings where darker circles are more visible as it hydrates the delicate skin around your eyes, penetrating fine lines and eliminating bags. Vitamin A and hyaluronic acid work in tandem to reduce heaviness, making skin brighter.
TOP TIP: If you really don’t have the time for a full cleanse before bed then ensure you remove leftover makeup with one of our Ella Jane Wipes. Refresh boasts peppermint and spearmint to minimise oil secretions, balance PH levels and refine pores. Because you’ll be cleansing your skin with a product that matches your natural oil production it’ll feel hydrated, rejuvenated and healthy.
