Evening beauty routine to take care of yourself and detoxify your skin

At this time when we spend a lot of time at home, it is important to relax and get a good night's sleep. Nighttime plays an essential role in our health and our skin. It is at night that cellular mechanisms work best and the skin regenerates. It is therefore important to have an evening routine to relax, detoxify your skin and get a good night's sleep.

Nighttime is a good time to detoxify your skin

The night is a unique moment of rebirth for your skin. It is at night, when the skin is sheltered from all external stresses that it works the most and can regenerate at its best. It is between 2am and 6am that cellular repair takes place. The night plays an essential role in cellular and skin life.

The night is also conducive to facilitating good cellular cleansing: eliminating toxins. This natural cleansing is a process initiated by the cells of the epidermis. The skin gets rid of toxins accumulated during the day due to external aggressions that disrupt the proper functioning of the cells.

Before going to bed it is important to adopt a detox ritual which will help the action of the cells during the night.

Dr Pierre Ricaud probiotic night care stimulates the natural process of repair, detox and cellular regeneration. These treatments boost the natural stages of repair and detoxification for regenerated and detoxified skin upon waking.

A relaxing evening beauty routine

To relax and prepare for a good night's sleep, opt for a gentle and purifying evening beauty routine. When you apply your night care, give yourself a moment of well-being and use a relaxing gesture.

The first step in the evening beauty routine is removing makeup. Indeed, to sleep well, the skin needs to be clean and cleansed. When removing makeup, you rid your skin of all the impurities accumulated during the day. Once your skin is cleansed, it is ready to receive its night care which will regenerate and detoxify the skin during sleep.

Apply your treatments by massaging your face. You can watch our tutorial to find out how to properly apply your night treatments and refresh your skin.

If you are applying a serum, tap your face with your fingertips, pressing gently to make the treatment penetrate and finish by massaging your forehead to relax it. Your skin is now ready to receive other treatments.

Apply your eye contour treatment with smoothing movements around the eye to make the treatment penetrate and finish with small pinches to stimulate this area. For the lion's wrinkle located between the eyebrows, make crossed movements with your index fingers (10 times in a row) and finish on the temples by passing above the eyebrows.

Then apply the night cream starting from the center of the face outwards, without forgetting the neck. Use gentle movements to smooth your face. Place your palms on your eyes to relax them and finish by gently pressing your palms on your cheeks and neck.

Your skin is relaxed, ready for the night and so are you.
