Most of us are known to sleep with makeup on, which is not a good thing. We shouldn’t make it a habit.
Its not good for your skin or your sheets. Here are the reasons you should stop sleeping with makeup.
Pores get clogged: Going to bed with makeup can leave you with clogged pores, which leads to bumpy skin.
Eye Irritation and infection : Neglecting to remove makeup can cause eye irritation and infection. Eye makeup especially mascara and liner left on the skin for prolonged time can cause styes, irritation and infection.
Wrinkles : Dirt and makeup trapped against your skin cause environmentally induced oxidative damage which can cause premature ageing and wrinkles.
Broken Eyelashes : Prolonged eye makeup like mascara and eyeliner causes the eye lashes to break.
Chapped Lips : If you fall asleep with lipstick on, they suck moisture up and lead to chapping and chapped lips are painful.
You get Acne :Prolonged wearing of makeup while sleeping can cause clogged pores and with clogged pores the skin can’t breathe properly due to which acnes start appearing on your skin.
Skin Dries out and becomes dull : Leaving makeup on overnight causes flakiness, dullness, and dryness.If you properly cleanse you face at night and use moisturiser, it helps your skin cells to repair and replenish at night.
Premature Ageing : Makeup can trap dirt and environmental pollutants inside the skin which can result in increased free radicals that can cause collagen degradation and premature ageing which makes you look older, rougher and less radiant.
