Lucknow. Everyone wants their skin to always remain young, glowing and spotless. For this, people do not shy away from spending thousands of rupees on expensive anti-aging products and skin care treatments. But do you know that some minor and unknown mistakes in your night can spoil all these expensive treatments? According to dermatologists, night time is most important for the repair and reinvention (renewal of cells) of our skin. If some mistakes are made before sleeping during this time, then the skin starts appearing premature aging and fine lines and wrinkles appear on the face before time. Let us know about those 3 big mistakes from which you should avoid today itself.
Sleeping without washing your face or wearing makeup
During the day’s hustle and bustle, dust, dirt, pollution and sticky sweat get deposited on the layers of our face. Many people go to sleep due to extreme fatigue without washing their face or removing their makeup. According to experts, this habit is most fatal for the skin. Due to accumulation of dirt and chemicals on the face overnight, the pores become completely blocked, due to which the skin is not able to take oxygen freely. Due to this, not only pimples appear on the face, but free radicals destroy the collagen of the skin, due to which the skin starts becoming loose.
Sleeping in wrong position and using cotton pillow covers
The way you sleep also decides the age of your skin. If you sleep on your stomach or side in such a way that your face remains pressed against the pillow, then change this habit immediately. Due to continuous pressure and friction on the face, ‘Sleep Wrinkles’ i.e. permanent wrinkles start forming. Additionally, regular cotton pillow covers absorb the skin’s natural moisture and oil, leaving the skin dry. Doctors recommend that you always sleep straight on your back or use silk pillow covers.
Late night use of smartphone and incomplete sleep
Scrolling the mobile screen for hours even after switching off the lights at night is the biggest enemy of your eyes as well as skin. Blue light emitted from smartphones directly causes oxidative damage to skin cells, due to which the problem of dark circles and pigmentation increases rapidly. Apart from this, staying awake till late reduces the production of ‘melatonin’ and ‘collagen’ in the body, which are mainly responsible for keeping the skin young. At least 7-8 hours of deep sleep daily helps the skin heal naturally.
