Evening Beauty Ritual: Prepare Your Skin for Sleep with Niuk

If there's one time our skin deserves to be pampered, it's in the evening, just before diving into a well-deserved sleep. Evening is the perfect time to create a pampering beauty ritual and prepare our skin to regenerate overnight. Today, I'm going to share with you my evening ritual with Niuk, my beauty ally for soft and luminous skin when you wake up.


Why is it so important to care for your skin before bed?

At night, while we're fast asleep, our skin is in turbo-regeneration mode. In fact, this is THE time when it repairs itself from the stresses it has suffered during the day (pollution, sun, makeup, etc.). According to dermatological studies, it's between 11 p.m. and 4 a.m. that the production of new skin cells is at its peak. Yes, while you're dreaming, your skin is working hard! Hence the importance of preparing it well with targeted treatments before bed.

By applying this revitalizing ice ball to your face before bed, you stimulate *blood circulation*, which allows for better oxygenation of the skin. The result? Brighter skin when you wake up, ready to face a new day!


Niuk, your anti-aging ally for the night

Okay, let's not kid ourselves, one of the biggest challenges at night is slowing the appearance of wrinkles (no one wants them, or they just disappear when you wake up ;). You guessed it, Niuk, with its *cold* effect, will firm your skin by stimulating the production of **collagen*. For those wondering what collagen is, it's that magical little protein that gives skin its elasticity and bounce.

But how exactly does it work? By giving your skin an incomparable feeling of freshness, extreme cold causes blood vessels to contract (hello vasoconstriction) followed by dilation (hello vasodilation), which activates circulation and helps smooth the skin. And hey presto, goodbye wrinkles! And that's not all: studies show that cold also boosts the production of fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production.


Add the Polar Night Serum for a Winning Combo

Now that you have your Niuk on hand, it's time to pair it with an effective night serum. The Polar Night Serum, enriched with Rhodimenia Borealia, a mysterious algae that stimulates microcirculation, helps deeply moisturize. Its silky texture absorbs quickly, and with Niuk, you maximize the effect by allowing better penetration of the active ingredients.

Why is this combo so effective? The coldness of *Niuk* tightens pores, helping to retain moisture, while the active ingredients in *Nuit Polaire* deeply nourish your skin while you sleep. Together, they create a *hydrating* and repairing effect. You wake up with soft, hydrated skin, fresher than morning dew.


The steps of my evening beauty routine with Niuk and Nuit Polaire

Here's my evening routine:

1. Makeup removal: I start by carefully removing all traces of makeup and the day's impurities.

2. Cleansing: I use a gentle cleanser to deeply purify my skin.

3. Polar Night Serum: I load the Polar Night serum into the Niuk. 4. Massage with Niuk: I gently massage my face with Niuk to allow the serum to penetrate and benefit from the cold, deeply nourishing my skin while I sleep.


Adopt a relaxing routine to promote sleep

Last but not least: your evening beauty ritual should be a truly relaxing and blissful moment. Using Niuk and suitable skincare products like the Polar Night serum not only provides benefits for your skin, but also helps create a soothing moment before going to sleep. The cold massage helps release tension in your face, and the refreshing sensation promotes relaxation. In short, a perfect combination to prepare both your skin and mind for sleep.
