Five Ways Sleep Improves Your Skin
While the power of a good night’s sleep has always been linked with improved mood and energy levels, the benefits of getting enough sleep extend beyond just waking up refreshed. In this blog we’re going to explore just some of the ways getting enough sleep can enhance your skin, leaving you waking up with newfound radiance as well as energy.
1. Cellular Regeneration and Repair
Quality sleep is your skin’s nightly spa treatment. During deep sleep your body enters repair mode, triggering an increase in the production of growth hormones. These hormones promote the restoration of damaged cells, aiding in the repair of daily wear and tear on your skin. Because of this, you wake up feeling rejuvenated and revitalised.
2. Collagen Production Boost:
Collagen, the protein responsible for skin’s elasticity, is produced during sleep. Adequate sleep enhances collagen synthesis, helping to maintain skin firmness and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. So while you’re busy counting sheep, dreaming of Tom Hardy, collagen is acting as your secret weapon for youthful, plump skin.
3. Reduced Inflammation and Redness:
Sleep is a powerful agent for reducing inflammation. A lack of sleep can lead to increased levels of inflammatory markers in the body - which manifest as redness, puffiness and even acne. Prioritising your beauty sleep is key if you want to reduce inflammation and ensure a calmer, more even-toned complexion.
4. Optimised Hydration Levels:
While you’re sleeping, your body is regulating your hydration levels, preventing excessive water loss. This natural hydration process helps your skin’s moisture balance, leaving it supple and hydrated when you wake up.
