We never think about the impact one night’s of sleep deprivation can have on our skin, but studies shows that a person may look a decade older in response to stress-induced changes in facial tissues that often accompany insomnia, and that those damaged tissues can lead to skin disorders like eczema, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis. Lack of sleep can also affect the optimal process of the skin’s collagen formation, so to maintain healthy, youthful-looking skin, most experts recommend you to get at least 7 to 8 hours of restful sleep each night and perhaps even a 20 to 30 minutes nap during the day. Meditation, breathing exercise, or even reading a book can help you catch that so desired sleep, no matter what technique you decide to use, always try a natural approach, and enjoy refreshed, health-looking skin.
