This Week’s Mindful Reminder:
"Sleep is the best meditation." - Dalai Lama
In Today's Issue:
The power of sleep for skin health
Establishing a soothing bedtime routine
Nutritious dinner recipe for better sleep
Getting enough sleep is more powerful than you might think..
..especially when it comes to maintaining the beauty and longevity of your permanent makeup.
During sleep, your body goes into repair mode and rejuvenates itself, which is vital for skin health.
This regeneration helps diminish under-eye circles and keeps your skin - and thus your permanent makeup - looking vibrant and crisp.
Alongside a healthy sleep routine, it's essential to manage other lifestyle factors.
Protect your skin by staying out of the sun and avoiding sunbeds, as UV exposure can fade your makeup prematurely.
Also, steer clear of smoking, which can accelerate skin ageing and affect the appearance of your permanent makeup.
Create a soothing bedtime routine to encourage quality sleep: dim the lights, avoid screens, and relax with a book or calm music before bed.
These habits not only promote deeper sleep but also support the longevity and freshness of your permanent makeup.
Tip Of The Week: Create A Great Sleeping Environment

Your bedroom should be a sanctuary for sleep.
Keep it cool.
Quiet.
Dark.
How can you do this?
Use blackout curtains, eye masks, or white noise machines to block out disruptions.
Ensuring your sleeping area is conducive to rest will help you achieve the deep, restorative sleep your body needs.
