Applying skincare at night can help maintain healthy skin while sleeping.

Brilio.net - Caring for facial skin with acne is not only about treating existing problems, but also preventing the appearance of new acne and maintaining overall skin health. One of the main keys in caring for acne skin is implementing a basic nighttime skincare routine that is correct and consistent.

Night is a crucial time for skin to regenerate and repair itself. When we sleep blood flow to the skin increases, collagen production accelerates, and dead skin cells are replaced by new cells. This is why a basic nighttime skincare routine is very important, especially for those who have acne problems.

Acne-prone skin has special needs that need to be considered. Excess oil production, clogged pores, and acne-causing bacteria are some of the factors that need to be addressed in your care routine. Basic nighttime skincare specifically designed for acne-prone skin not only helps clean and soothe the skin, but also provides the nutrients needed for the healing process.

Apart from that, basic nighttime skincare also plays an important role in maintaining the skin's moisture balance. Many people with acne-prone skin tend to avoid moisturizer for fear of making their skin condition worse. In fact, skin that is well hydrated is actually better able to fight acne-causing bacteria and speed up the healing process.

A proper basic nighttime skincare routine also helps optimize the absorption of the active ingredients contained in skin care products. When the skin is clean and ready, it can absorb nutrients and healing ingredients more effectively, providing more optimal results in treating acne and improving skin condition.

So, here is the order of basic nighttime skincare along with product recommendations as summarized by briliobeauty.net from various sources, Tuesday (6/8).
