Let’s face it; we have all been guilty of sleeping with a full face of makeup. After all, who enjoys scrubbing and cleansing in front of the mirror after a long day’s toil? But no matter how tempted you might be to dim the lights and crawl under the sheets – taking your makeup off first is crucial.

Wearing makeup overnight is detrimental to your skin’s health. It can clog your pores, leading to acne bumps and eruptions. Moreover, the layer of makeup on your skin attracts dirt, debris and pollutants (when outside), often resulting in unwarranted buildup. To steer clear of flare-ups, uneven skin tone, and dullness, we bring you Foxtale’s Hydrating Face Wash which doubles as a makeup remover. Scroll ahead to learn more about this innovative offering.

 Why should you never sleep with your makeup on?

Sleeping with your makeup on is out of the question! Here are all the reasons why wearing makeup overnight can harm your skin.

1. Disrupts Skin Repair And Rejuvenation Process: Your skin prioritizes its protection during the day and initiates repair at night. It sheds the unwarranted build of dead cells and debris to cue healthy cellular regeneration while you count sheep. A layer of makeup disrupts this repair process, leading to the formation of skin-harming free radicals. This grave oversight can slacken the collagen production process in your skin, resulting in early signs of skin ageing.

2. Clogged Pores And Acne Breakouts: Makeup overnight can clog your pores, leading to menacing acne breakouts,  whiteheads, and blackheads.  A makeup remover dislodges these deep-seated impurities and makeup residue for a refined complexion.

3. Inflamed Or Irritated Skin: Sleeping with eye makeup can make the eyelids more prone to styes, cause the eyelashes to shed and make the eyes irritated. A good makeup remover cum cleanser prevents harmful bacteria, viruses and pathogens from spreading across your skin’s microbiome.

4. Dullness: The layer of makeup on your face collects debris, impurities, and pollutants throughout the day. This can weigh down your complexion, making you look dull and beat. A potent hydrating facial cleanser + makeup remover disintegrates the buildup on the dermis, to reveal a smooth, glowing surface.

 Why should you add Foxtale’s Hydrating Face Wash to your makeup arsenal?

Our hydrating facial cleanser helps simplify the makeup removal process. The gentle formula carries gentle surfactants that melt away the most stubborn traces of makeup and SPF for a clean, bright surface. So, no more aggressive scrubbing or rubbing that may strain your skin!

Why Hydration Is Important For Your Skin?

Dry, oily, sensitive or combination – hydration is indispensable for all skin types. Here is a quick refresher on the many benefits of hydration.

1. Upholds The Acid Mantle: Ample hydration is essential for a sturdy lipid barrier. For those unaware, the lipid barrier or acid mantle acts as the first line of defence for your body. It helps ward off pollutants and aggressors for healthy, happy skin.

2. Reverses Skin Ageing: Ageing is natural and beautiful, however, its early signs can be a little disconcerting for many. Regular and sustained hydration to the skin helps soften premature wrinkles, fine lines, crow’s feet, and more.

3. Prevents Dryness And Dullness: Dehydrated skin can appear dry, flaky and even dull in some instances. A tall glass of water for the dermis helps revive it to its former glory.

4. Controls Sebum Production: The lack of hydration often cues the sebaceous glands into overdrive mode. This can be counterproductive to efforts for a balanced microbiome – especially for people with oily or combination skin.

5. Helps Your Skin Heal: Hydrated skin recovers faster from nicks, cuts and bruises. Continued and mutl-level hydration of the skin plays an important role in your skin’s health and healing.

Hydration Vs Moisturization: How Are They Different 

The two terms, often used interchangeably, serve different purposes for your skin. Let’s delve into these here.

1. Hydration: The process of hydration replenishes your skin’s moisture reservoir. Ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerine (& other such humectants) bind water molecules to the skin, keeping it soft and supple. 

2. Moisturization: Regular moisturization of the skin prevents the loss of water molecules. A potent moisturizer forms a barrier on the dermis, doubling down on efforts for continued hydration. 

Luckily, Foxtale’s Hydrating Moisturizer with Ceramides checks both these boxes. It ensures multi-level hydration while reinforcing the skin's moisture barrier. The result is hydrated, glowing and supple skin all day long.

Why Should You Try Foxtale’s Hydrating Moisturizer With Ceramides

2. Ceramides and Vitamin E in the formula form a protective shield against external aggressors and pollutants, making it the best glowing skin moisturizer.

3. Our moisturizer uses the Barrier Repair Formula that helps reverse any damage. Additionally, the cream replenishes your skin’s ceramide levels for its taut and supple appearance.

How To Use The Hydrating Moisturizer With Ceramide

You can use Foxtale’s Hydrating Moisturizer in your morning and nighttime skincare routine. But before you whip out this jar of nourishing goodness, here are the steps you must follow.

1. Cleanse First: Cleansing removes dirt, grime and impurities from the pores, ensuring a healthy microbiome. Foxtale’s Hydrating Face Wash guarantees a thorough cleanse without overdrying the skin. Additionally, it contains humectants like Sodium Hyaluronate and Red Algae Extracts that help double down on efforts for hydration. Alternatively, for oily skin, you can use the Acne Control Face Wash with Salicylic Acid. The star ingredient, Salicylic Acid, curbs sebum production without disrupting your skin’s pH.

2. Serums For Treatment: Next, apply your concern-led serum to target underlying concerns. To combat dark spots and boost your skin’s glow – Vitamin C serum should be your go-to formula. For oil control, our Niacinamide Serum, for acne, try our AHA BHA Exfoliating Serum and for hydration, try Foxtale’s Hydrating Serum.

3. Moisturize And Hydrate: Now, use a coin-sized amount of our Hydrating Moisturizer to add (more) and seal the dermis’ water content. This protective layer also holds the active ingredients, therefore boosting its effectiveness

4. SPF SPF SPF: Apply two fingers’ worth of sunscreen SPF 50 on your skin 15 minutes before stepping outdoors. Use a broad-spectrum formula that shields your skin against UVA and UVB radiations.

Hydration Vs Moisturization: What Does Your Skin Need?

Even the most seasoned skincare enthusiasts make this rookie mistake – use the terms hydration and moisturization interchangeably. To dispel all clouds of confusion, we delve deep into the difference between the two. 

Moisturization: Moisturization helps create a protective barrier on the skin that prevents TEWL or transepidermal water loss. Moreover, the process puts a big, sturdy lock on any active-infused treatments or serums you may be administering to your skin. 

Hydration: Hydration helps replenish your skin’s water reservoir. This is where humectants like Hyaluronic Acid come into the picture. 

If you are wondering which one you need in your daily skincare – the simple answer is both. To reiterate, hydration is indispensable for your skin’s health. But all efforts for skin hydration become futile if you don’t have a moisturizer to seal the water bank.
