Hello Everyone,

Your night time routine will directly affect how your skin is going to look the next day, so its good if we follow good night time skin care routine.So today I am going to share my daily night time skin care routine. To keep it simple..I am going to describe it step by step....So lets start...

Step 1 & 2 : Cleansing & Toning

The first two steps is to cleanse and tone. If you wear heavy makeup that needs extra cleansing or waterproof mascara, liner etc. be sure to use a makeup remover of your choice.

Importance

• Cleanser removes all the dirt, impurities and extra makeup traces from your skin and makes it breathable. 
• Toner re-balances your skin’s pH level that might be altered when washing your face.
• Toners also prepares your skin and helps it to better absorb any other product that comes next.

Step 3: Eye Cream

The skin around the eye area is very sensitive and delicate, applying the eye cream before all other products not only helps to repair the damage caused by makeup and the stress and pollution.

Importance

• Repairs the skin damage around the eyes.
• Reduce puffiness and dark circles.
• Protect the skin from harmful ozone and pollutants.
• Prevents other unsuitable skincare products from entering this area easily.

You can use any good eye cream.

Step 4 : Pimple & Blemish Control Cream

Most Blemish or pimple control cream products contain certain amounts of acid or Benzoyl peroxide which helps kills bacteria. However, such ingredients also makes your skin more sensitive to the external environment such as sunlight or pollutants. Excessive drying of the skin may also occur thus I find that it is important to use stronger and thicker moisturizers to prevent excessive peeling.

Cost : 30 ml | Rs. 716 (Snapdeal)

Step 5 : Serum

Serum absorbs easily into your skin and refines your skin texture. Also it inhibit the production of melanin, the serum gives your skin a healthy and radiant glow. Over regular use you get visibly improved skin tone and texture.
