No one wants to be told they look tired. Unfortunately, sometimes it can be hard to get enough sleep. If you're chronically exhausted, here are four beauty tips you can use to look more well-rested:
1. Invest in a good eye cream.
Nothing makes you look tired more than dark circles under your eyes. Fight dark circles by investing in a great eye cream. Using this product every night before bed can hydrate your under eye skin so you look well-rested in the morning. Remember that the skin under your eyes is very delicate, so be gentle when applying your eye cream. Use your ring finger to apply the product and use a light tapping motion to pat the cream into your skin.
2. Try a sleeping mask.
Humans generally sleep best in darkness, so light can make it hard to fall asleep. Unfortunately, it can be particularly hard to find darkness if you live in a city where lights shine through your window. If you want a better night's sleep, invest in a sleeping mask. This convenient little item can block out external lights so you can drift into a pleasant sleep. If you're concerned about your significant other seeing you in a sleeping mask, try a lace sleeping mask. Lace sleeping masks are as beautiful as they are functional. Nothing will make you look as well-rested as a full night of sleep.
3. Sleep with a humidifier.
Heaters are notorious for sucking all the moisture out of a room. Unfortunately, sleeping in dry air can cause chapped lips and dry skin which can both make you look tired. Wake up with more luminous, hydrated skin by running a humidifier while you sleep. A humidifier will replenish the moisture in the air which will keep your skin from drying out overnight. To enhance the effect, use a moisturizer containing humectants before you sleep. According to Very Well Health, humectants pull moisture from the air and draw it into your skin.
4. Switch your pillowcases to silk.
Frizzy hair can make you look like you overslept and didn't have time to tame your mane. Hair frizz is caused by dryness and breakage, and your pillowcase could be exacerbating the problem. If you toss and turn in your sleep, your pillowcase could be rubbing against your hair creating friction that leads to split ends and broken, frizzy hair. Switch to a silk pillowcase to wake up with smoother, more manageable hair.
