Your skin sheds cells and over time that leads to building up of dead skin cells. These can clog your skin pores, if not taken care of.

Cleansing the face at night, removes all the dirt and grime from your face and unclogs the skin pores. If you have time, exfoliating the skin weekly can make this process even more efficient.

Have you ever noticed that when you remove your mascara in the morning, your eyelashes seem to come off more? The ample coats of mascara that we put on our lashes make it hard.

Keeping the eye make-up on can cause irritate your eyes and might cause an eye infection.

Nighttime skincare routine has become a huge thing lately. You will find nighttime moisturisers and night creams flooding the market. These products aid the process of skin rejuvenating itself during the night. Your skin absorbs these products and they work their charm overnight on your skin while you sleep. But, you can not use these products on the tired and dirty skin of the day. You need a clean and healthy palette to work with. The make-up on your face won't let the products get completely absorbed into your face. Wash your face gently and thoroughly, pat it dry and put on your night skincare products.
