It’s not called your beauty sleep for nothing, you know. Cell turnover speeds up significantly while you sleep, and creams and potions are more easily absorbed by the resting body. Anyway, what could be nicer on a winter’s evening than snuggling down in the leaba with a good book while enjoying the goodness of an effective night treatment?
