Coming back home after a busy day at work makes crashing on your bed look tempting, doesn’t it? Well, hold that thought. Before you hit the bed, we urge you to follow a quick nighttime skincare routine. Skincare in the night is more or less a form of self-care, and we say this with experience. It doesn’t only help achieve visible benefits on the face but makes you feel SO GOOD from the inside.
The feel-good factor also depends on the kind of products you use. That’s why we recommend staying away from harsh chemicals and adding clean beauty products to your arsenal. Clean beauty treats your skin right because it’s free of all kinds of baddies like alcohol, artificial perfume and dyes, parabens and animal-derived ingredients. Ahead, we tell you how to build an easy nighttime skincare routine with clean beauty products. Rest assured, your skin will thank you in the long run.
Step #1: Take your makeup off
Sure, your makeup makes you feel ready to take on the day. But it can be your skin’s biggest woe if not wiped off before sleeping. And this is the first step in your nighttime skincare routine. Steer clear from a chemical-laden cleanser and switch to the cruelty-free Simple Kind To Skin Micellar Cleansing Water. It’s free from baddies like alcohol, artificial fragrances, dyes and, instead, is formulated with skin-loving ingredients like triple purified water, vitamin C and B3, which not only remove makeup but also smoothen and hydrate your skin. Win-win!
Step #2: Cleanse your face
Do you know what else you need to properly clean your skin of all the impurities collected through the day? A refreshing, nourishing face wash! We suggest using a gentle, soap-free formula like Simple Kind to Skin Moisturising Facial Wash for your nighttime skincare. It removes any stubborn dirt and excess sebum from your face and leaves it looking clear, soft and moisturised, thanks to its skin-friendly ingredients like bisabolol, vitamin E and pro-vitamin B5.

Step #3: Use a moisturiser
All the hydration and moisture your skin lost during the day can be regained by using the right moisturiser before you hit the bed. The Simple Kind To Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser is our go-to for this. Formulated with a superb blend of vitamin E, pro-vitamin B5 and borage oil, it readily absorbs into your skin, feels light and keeps the skin moisturised for up to 12 long, allowing you to wake up with soft, supple skin in the morning.
