We all want to wake up to soft and glowing skin every morning but with the pollution and stress levels rising, the health of our skin only seems to deteriorate. But we have a solution that could actually make your wish come true. A DIY overnight sleeping mask that can help your skin get its lost glow back.
The reason why overnight masks and night serums work is because your body and skin both are at rest during the night. Your skin utilizes this time to repair itself and external product such as an overnight mask and night serum help aide the process. So, if glowing skin is what you’re looking for, try these masks on!
1. Lemon sleeping mask for pigmentation
Dark spots, pigmentation and uneven skin tone can make your skin look dull and tired. This mask contains lemon and almond oil which help in fading dark spots and pigmentation.
You will need:
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon almond oil
Step:
- Mix the two ingredients well in a bowl.
- Dip a cotton ball into the mixture and apply all over your face and neck.
- Massage using your fingertips in a circular, upward motion.
- Leave it on overnight and wash it off the next morning.
2. Tomato sleeping mask for brightening
Tomato contains lycopene which is an excellent ingredient for skin brightening. Coconut milk on the other hand corrects skin tone and keeps it nourished.
You will need:
- Small tomato cut into two halves
- 2 tablespoons milk
Step:
- Dip the tomato in milk and apply all over the face.
- Allow it to dry and then apply a second layer on it.
- You can apply a third layer or blend the two ingredients into a thick paste and apply it all over the face.
- Leave it on overnight and wash it off in the morning with cold water.
