Recently I was contacted by HSN to feature an amazing post written by one of their bloggers: Carly Woods. Carly is a beauty expert at HSN! If you know me & my love for HSN (hello, Giuliana Rancic’s fabulous clothing line), I was happy to share! The article is entitled: 4 Overnight Products You Should Be Using.
I don’t know if you’re like me, but there isn’t much I like better than a good night’s sleep. I have a pretty strict routine before bed: washing my face (rotating the Clinique 3-step with a facial mask to shrink pores), whitening my teeth, brushing my teeth, putting on Carmex, and putting lotion on my legs.
And now for the best part: SLEEP. When it comes to beauty sleep, it’s safe to say that we generally fall into two categories; those who manage 8 hours of sleep a night and those who don’t! Whether it’s puffy eyes, dry skin, or your desire to simply have brighter skin when you wake up, this piece from HSN is a must-read!
Per Carly’s recommendations, here are the 4 Products You Should Be Using:
1. Begin With The Base
First, I always recommend using a serum. Facial serums are used to address specific problems such as wrinkles, aging and brightness. Apply a few drops to clean skin and using your hands press the serum into your skin.
2. Add The Primer
Especially in the colder months, you want to follow step one with a layer of oil for added hydration. Plus, you will wake up with beautiful and plump skin.
3. Don’t Forget To Moisturize!
Lastly, simply apply a moisturizer. My advice is to opt for a comforting and hydrating formula. I like to see it as a blanket; keeping in the goodness of the serum and oil.
4. Last But Not Least – Give Your Eyes Some Love
Don’t forget an eye cream! Try to use a powerful wrinkle reducing formula. Make sure you always use a very tiny amount; overloading the skin around your eyes with too much of a heavy product can cause puffiness and sometimes breakouts.

So this totally made me think more about my skin care routine before bed…what about you?
Ah I need to be doing these things!
