Are you familiar with waking up feeling puffy and weird because you were too tired to clean your face the previous night? Well, we all had those days and that’s totally okay. What matters is you don’t give up on your nighttime skincare routine just because of a few unsuccessful instances. You must be aware that your nighttime skincare routine is the best time to give your skin some extra love and care. Nighttime is when you rest and your skin repairs and regenerates, making it the perfect opportunity to nourish and rejuvenate your complexion. 

While using store-bought products can work wonders, people with extra sensitive skin may want to be wary of most products before incorporating them into their skincare routine. One of the safest ways to enhance your nightly routine is by creating your own face cream using natural ingredients. This ensures that you’re avoiding harsh chemicals and preservatives, especially if you have sensitive skin.

In this blog post, we will provide an easy DIY recipe that will help you wake up with beautiful, moisturized skin.

What You Need

1. Aloe Vera Gel – 1 tablespoon
2. Glycerine – 1/2 tablespoon
3. Lemon – 2 drops
4. Malai – 1/2 tablespoon

How to Make Your DIY Night Cream

1. Combine Aloe Vera Gel and Glycerine
   Start by mixing 1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel with 1/2 tablespoon of glycerine. Aloe vera and glycerine will form the base of your cream, providing hydration and soothing properties.
2. Add Lemon Drops
   Add 2 drops of lemon juice to the mixture. Stir well to blend the lemon juice evenly throughout the mixture.
3. Incorporate Malai
   As a final step, add 1/2 tablespoon of malai to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are combined into a creamy, smooth texture. 
4. Store and Use
   This is a one-time-apply cream. Use it immediately and dispose of the extra amount. 

How to Apply the Cream

1. Cleanse Your Face
   The first step in a nighttime skincare routine should always be to wash your face with your favorite face wash suited to your skin type. 
2. Apply the Cream
   Scoop a generous amount of the cream and apply it to your face evenly until it is fully absorbed.
3. Let it Work Overnight
   Leave the cream on overnight, allowing it to work its magic while you sleep. Avoid touching your face or rubbing it against your pillow to ensure the cream remains on your skin.
4. Rinse in the Morning
   Rinse your face with warm water in the morning and continue with your usual morning skincare routine.

Caution: Always perform a patch test before applying new products to your face to ensure you don’t have any adverse reactions, especially with ingredients like lemon.

Creating your own night cream is not only fun but also a great way to pamper your skin naturally. With just a few simple ingredients, you can enjoy soft, glowing skin every morning. Happy DIY skincare!
