Make sure that you follow it without skipping a day and you will get the skin that you have always desired.

Step #1 Makeup Removal

• The first step when it comes to the bedtime skincare routine is to remove the makeup.
• It is a must that you remove the makeup before sleeping as not doing so can clog the pores and cause skin damage like pigmentation and acne.
• The best method to remove makeup off the face is by using an oil cleanser.
• An oil cleanser targets the dirt as well as the oil-based makeup and removes it from the deepest layer.

Step #2 Cleansing

• Once you are done removing your makeup, it is time for an intense cleanse.
• A foam or a gel-based cleanser will work on the pores and remove impurities from there to prevent any sort of pore damage.
• For this, you can opt for a cleanser that best suit your skin type.
• If you have dry skin opt for a moisturizing cleanser.
• If you have sensitive skin, opt for a cleanser which balances your pH.

Step #3.Toner

• A step that’s skipped by most, toner is essential if you are following a skincare routine.
• It hydrates the skin and provides it nourishment.
• Due to its consistency, a toner can easily penetrate the skin and repair the damage faster.
• There are endless toners available in the market.

Step #4. Serum

• If you are facing skin problem or if you want to rejuvenate your skin, it is a must that you include a serum in your routine.
• Using a serum especially in the night work wonders for the skin as the skin goes in a repair mode during the night.
• It targets the problematic zones and treats them permanently.
• If you are opting for a natural serum, include ingredients like glycerin, vitamin E oil and aloe vera gel to reverse the ageing signs and for a rejuvenated skin.

Step #5. Moisturizer

• The last but the most important step is hydration.
• Be it any skin type, it is a must that you hydrate it by using an ample amount of moisturizer on it.
• A moisturizer locks the goodness of the cleanser, toner as well as the serum.
• If you have oily skin, don’t refrain from using a moisturizer.
• You can opt for a gel-based one to prevent pore-clogging.

Step #6. Spot Treatment (Optional) 

• This step is strictly for people with an acne problem.
• Using spot treatment on acne helps in treating them faster and better.
