It is no longer a secret that sleeping offers a ton of benefits. Beauty sleep is REAL.
If you have ever stared yourself down in the mirror after a poor night’s sleep, then you know what we are talking about. The zombie stare, the dark undereye circles, the sallow skin, and the not-so-artfully disheveled hair.
Our skin requires adequate sleep to heal itself from the day’s damage. Skin is our body’s largest organ and it basically stops bacterias, viruses as well as UV rays.
How sleep helps you look your best:
1. Beauty Sleep helps Fade Wrinkles And Signs Of Aging
When we sleep our skin’s clock turns backwards and during that time our bodies pump out human growth hormones that help stimulate the production of collagen, a protein that helps your skin stay supple and elastic.
When collagen production is balanced you will not only have a natural glow but also a healthier and more beautiful complexion.
All we mostly have to do is just sleep, as it is basically like a free version of those expensive anti-aging creams.
2. Lower Risks Of Acne Lack of sleep leads to stress both physically and mentally and it is more likely for our skin to get stressed too leading to Acne.
Having and following a sleeping schedule helps to replace old cells with fresh, new ones leaving your skin with a clear and natural glow.
3. Stronger Hair And Nails
A good night sleep keeps a balanced and natural moisture distribution in your entire body.
When cells are adequately moisturized and hydrated it produces enough collagen, and makes your hair strong and shiny whilst also helping you avoid brittle, cracked and unhealthy nails.
4. You will be more likely to maintain a healthy weight.
When you regularly get the sleep you need, you are more likely to maintain a healthy weight.
In fact, people whose sleep schedules are off by just one hour are 33% more likely to become overweight or obese than those who regularly get enough snooze time.
5. You will flash more big, bright smiles.
Sure, it sounds a little cheesy, but a friendly smile really is everyone’s best accessory. But if you are stressed or depressed—as is often true for people who do not sleep enough—you are a lot less likely to be flashing those pearly whites.
Once we go to bed and get ready for our beauty sleep, our skin is more likely to repair itself up to 3 times of our normal cellular turnover giving it a chance to improve and eventually lead to radiant , rosy and velvety skin.
