If you want to wake up every morning to smooth, radiant, glowing skin, a carefully planned night skincare routine is your answer. At night, your skin repairs and regenerates much faster, making this the best time to feed it with all the good nutrients and moisture it needs. Here’s your definitive, step-by-step routine to unlocking natural, overnight luminosity—with an Ayurvedic twist.
Step 1: Remove Makeup & Cleanse
Always start with a gentle cleanse to remove makeup, oil, dust, and pollutants. Makeup residue can clog pores and dull your complexion if left overnight. Choose sulfate-free cleansers with natural botanicals—like aloe vera or sandalwood—to prevent irritation.
Step 2: Gentle Exfoliation (2-3x a week)
Getting rid of dead cells helps reveal fresher, glowing skin and primes it to absorb your next treatments. Look for mild scrubs (with walnut or oats) or natural fruit enzyme exfoliants.
Step 3: Balancing Toner
A balanced pH means less redness and better product absorption. Opt for a toner with rose water, cucumber, or witch hazel. This calms your skin and shrinks pores—great prep for the next steps.
Step 4: Targeted Serums/Masks
If you have pigmentation or fine lines, use serums loaded with vitamin C or niacinamide. Weekly treatment masks with turmeric, neem, or licorice provide a boost for skin clarity.
Step 5: Hydration with Night Oil
The hero step! Use an Ayurvedic face oil like Vaasna Care PRAKRTA 9PM Face Glow oil for overnight nourishment. Massage a few drops onto damp skin, moving upwards for 2-3 minutes. This boosts blood flow and circulation for natural luminosity.
Step 6: Eye Cream
The under-eye area is fragile and needs extra TLC. Dab a lightweight cream (with aloe, almond oil, or caffeine) to fight puffiness and fine lines.
Step 7: Moisturise & Rest
Finish with a non-comedogenic night cream or light moisturizer if extra hydration is needed. Sleep for 7-8 hours for cellular rejuvenation.
