Waking up with dewy skin is the dream, right? It sure hasn't been easy to achieve this winter though - I'm waking up tired, puffy, dull, dehydrated and nothing helps. Until now. The short version is that the @emmalewisham Supernatural Sleeping Mask is a lush, buttery soft dream that kicks your skin's repair and resilience into gear, hydrates and renews. Can confirm you'll wake up looking fresh and well-rested. The long version? The hormone responsible for sleep onset is melatonin - it's heavily involved in our circadian rhythm. It's made in the brain and in the skin. It's very beneficial for skin, too, triggering natural antioxidant and defense mechanisms. As we age (yep, this is going exactly where you'd think) we make less. And when we sleep less, our skin regenerates less. I'm also extra spicy when I'm tired. Devices certainly don't help and can interfere with melatonin production (largely because of your eyes' response to the blue light. There's not really enough blue light from devices to impact skin directly). It's all well and good to just give skin extra melatonin, but we can also trick it into thinking there's extra melatonin and that's where Gardenia fruit extract comes in - it's converted to a melatonin-like compound (crocetin) by the skin's microbiome (so cool), enhancing melatonin's already wonderful effects. There's also a super gentle AHA from hibiscus, to help unglue old, dead skin cells, and antioxidant-rich edelweiss extract (a source of leontopodic acid, which calms skin and strengthens the barrier). Plus it's lush, hydrating, and designed to be circular and refillable ♻🌏 Here's the business stuff: You can shop @emmalewisham online ✨ right now ✨ at @meccabeauty #ELPartner #Sponsored
