G et enough sleep
You might be like, WHAT! Sleep really? Sis, YES, really! While you sleep, blood flow to the skin increases, which helps to deliver oxygen and nutrients to your skin cells. This increased circulation can give your skin a healthy, radiant glow. In addition, your skin cells work to regenerate and repair themselves. Lack of sleep can disrupt this process, leading to dull, tired-looking skin and an increased risk of wrinkles. Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night to help your skin repair and rejuvenate.
