6. Make the Pillowcase Switch

Sleeping on a silk pillowcase will greatly benefit your hair and skin. Silk has 18 essential amino acids, as well as natural proteins that your skin will actually absorb, making your skin look younger and more beautiful. Silk pillowcases prevent those “sleep lines” that often happen when you sleep on cotton pillowcases. Silk is also great for your hair. Silk will allow your hair to glide smoothly, which will cause fewer split ends.

7. Don’t Forget Eye Cream

The skin around your eyes is the first place where your complexion will show the signs of aging. Always remove all traces of makeup first, and then apply a good quality eye cream that contains peptides, antioxidants, and caffeine. Start at the inner corner of the eye, then gently massage it outwards towards the corners. Eye cream will help to prevent wrinkles, hydrate, reduce dark circles, and temporarily tighten the under-eye area.

8. Use a Humidifier

The last thing you want is to allow dry indoor air to dry out your skin. Especially during the winter months, when indoor heaters can dry the air out to the point of being desert like, you will want to turn on your humidifier. Using a humidifier will fill your room with moist air, which will not only help you sleep better, but will keep the skin hydrated so you can avoid dry, itchy, cracked skin. Support a beautiful complexion and turn on that humidifier just before you hit the sack.
