THAT'S WHY THE EVENING ROUTINE IS ESSENTIAL FOR MATURE SKIN

When you go to sleep, your skin becomes active. It uses the night to renew itself from within. With a continuous and skin-specific care routine, you support the optimal development of the skin's own self-healing powers and promote a smooth, fresh complexion. To understand the needs of your skin and thus the importance of night care, it is important to know which everyday internal and external factors influence skin aging.

Mature skin is in constant change, which is determined not only by the natural, genetic aging process but also significantly by the external factors it is exposed to during the day.

• Stress
  Your skin and your psychological well-being are closely intertwined. Stress actually "gets under the skin," because the nerve endings are located in the skin and release the stress hormone cortisol. Chronic stress subsequently weakens the skin's own protective shield of the epidermis, the upper skin layer, which promotes inflammatory reactions in the skin. Cortisol makes the skin thinner and prone to irritation. Your skin's sensitivity to stress increases with age, as the skin barrier loses protection. Therefore, your skin reacts more to the hormone cortisol, which promotes skin aging. It appears irritated, tired, and saggy, and tends to develop more wrinkles.
• Sleep
  Your skin actively works to regenerate and repair damaged skin cells while you sleep. Consistently getting too little sleep hinders this natural, cell-renewing anti-aging process of your skin. This leads to premature skin aging.
• lifestyle
  The consumption of indulgences such as alcohol, an unbalanced diet, and especially UVA and UVB radiation promote the formation of free radicals. These cause negative chain reactions and inhibit collagen regeneration, leading to wrinkles and lines. To meet the needs of mature skin, prevent permanent skin damage, and maintain a healthy complexion, we recommend a continuous evening skincare routine.

THE DOCTOR Mi! EVENING ROUTINE FOR MATURE SKIN

With the Doctor Mi! evening routine, you provide your skin with high-quality and skin-specific ingredients that effectively care for it during the night.

CLEAN

CLEAN is a gentle yet thorough cleansing gel. Use a small amount and spread it over your entire face, including the eye area. With wet hands and circular motions, massage the product into your face for 2–3 minutes. This will free it from the deposits that have accumulated throughout the day. Then rinse your face with lukewarm water. Use a clean towel to dry off.

EYE

Then gently tap a small amount of EYE around the entire eye area, avoid rubbing, and let it absorb. Start using EYE once daily and gradually increase to morning and evening if well tolerated.

TONE.S

Spray 2–3 times TONE.S onto a cotton pad and apply it in circular motions to the face, neck, and décolleté. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes when using this product. Due to the high salicylic acid content, dead skin cells are removed and clogged pores are cleansed. TONE.S leaves a soothing sensation on the skin.

Use either RED or NIGHT as care in the evening:

NIGHT

NIGHT is an effective and soothing night care. It supports your skin's moisture retention and stabilizes its natural skin barrier. Use NIGHT in the evening after cleansing and apply it evenly to the face, neck, and décolleté. Gently massage the care in until it is fully absorbed. The effective night care contains the active ingredient retinol, which helps you reduce uneven pigmentation. Additionally, the Defensil®-Plus active ingredient complex contained in it supports your skin's natural skin metabolism regulation during the night and reduces fine lines and wrinkles overnight.

RED

Use 1–2 pumps of RED and apply it to your face. The high concentration of retinol immediately stimulates your collagen production and prevents skin aging. RED is a true active ingredient superhero and helps you achieve a long-lasting radiant complexion.

Note: Here you will find specific application instructions for the Doctor Mi! DERMAROLLER.

LIP

Apply a small amount of LIP to your lips daily or as needed and let the nourishing balm absorb. Repeat several times a day if necessary. LIP effectively prevents lip wrinkles, increases lip volume, and naturally intensifies the red color of the lips.

MORE TIPS FOR RELAXING IN THE EVENING

With your evening care routine, you prepare your skin optimally for the regeneration processes that take place during the night. Here you will find more tips on how you can promote inner calm through simple and recurring rituals and thus also relax your skin.

• Stretch it out!
  In everyday life, you don't always get enough movement, and in the evening you feel tension? Many of us experience this. Ten minutes of light stretching, combined with conscious and deep breathing, promotes blood circulation and supplies your skin with sufficient oxygen. This not only stimulates the skin-rejuvenating process of collagen regeneration but also leads to an immediate improvement in physical tension through conscious breathing.
• Facial steam baths
  A steam bath for the face is a time-tested care ritual and prepares your skin optimally for further care steps. Blood circulation is promoted, and the complexion looks immediately refreshed. Additionally, there is the relaxing effect of warmth. For a facial steam bath, pour 1.5 liters of hot water into a large bowl, hold your face at least 10 centimeters above the water surface, and cover the back of your head with a large towel to prevent the steam from escaping prematurely. For a special wellness factor, add soothing tea leaves such as chamomile or lavender blossoms to the water. Sea salt can also be used and has a disinfecting and calming effect on your skin. Since your pores open due to the warmth, a steam bath prepares your skin optimally for the evening care routine.
• Handy-Detox
  If possible, try not to take your phone to bed. For many of us, it has become a habit to scroll through social media channels or read messages on the phone before going to sleep. The blue light from the mobile device prevents our brain from releasing the sleep hormone melatonin, which disrupts our natural sleep rhythm and makes healthy, restful sleep more difficult.

FAQ: FREQUENT QUESTIONS ABOUT THE EVENING ROUTINE FOR MATURE SKIN

Here you will get concrete answers to the frequently asked questions about the evening routine for mature skin.

• Are all products labeled with "Night" or "Nacht" suitable for mature skin?

  Mature skin is a general term and is defined by various characteristics that vary in each skin and are expressed to different degrees. Night care products are generally richer than products for daytime care, but this does not automatically mean they contain the right ingredients to optimally and specifically care for the skin in the evening. There are ingredients, such as Retinol, that particularly promote the skin health of mature skin and are well tolerated. We recommend incorporating NIGHT into your care routines. It supplies your skin with all the important ingredients that help you visibly improve your complexion.

• Does mature skin require special cleansing in the evening?

  Mature skin also needs to be gently cleansed in the evening to remove the dirt particles that have accumulated on the skin throughout the day. Since mature skin tends to be dry, we recommend using a mild product that gently cleanses your skin without irritating it. CLEAN frees your skin from sebum and dirt without drying it out. The included miracle ingredients panthenol and vitamin B5 provide your skin with moisture during cleansing and keep its pH balance.

• What is the difference between NIGHT and RED?

  The skincare products NIGHT and RED differ in the composition of their active ingredients. Retinol and ProRenew Complex CLR are the basis of both products. The NIGHT care also contains the following active ingredients: Defensil®-Plus, SyriCalm CLR, and Niacinamide, a vitamin B3. These active ingredients have an anti-inflammatory effect, stabilize the pH value, and regulate skin metabolism. The RED care additionally supplies your skin in the evening with Extremoin, Ectoin, and vitamin B5. These active ingredients soothe skin irritations and support the regeneration process.
  Important: In your evening routine, only one of the two products should be used at a time.
