Daylight Savings Self-Care Essentials at Aventura Mall

Self-care essentials - Aventura Mall

Now that we’ve sprung forward and once again traded that precious extra hour of sleep for more daylight, we can’t help but wonder if this is the last year we’ll have to make this transition. In case you missed it, Florida’s proposed Sunshine Protection Act is aiming to keep this transition permanent. In 2019, a survey by Garnier SkinActive revealed that 63% of participants felt tired and 48% felt sluggish after losing an hour of sleep when the clocks ticked forward. The respondents also reported looking more tired, seeing dark circles, and experiencing a general loss of luminosity, dryness, and puffy eyes. If it sounds like these respondents are describing your own look this week, don’t worry…. you’re not alone! There’s actually an interesting scientific connection here because, like our bodies, our skin has its own circadian rhythm! We truly need protection during the day and optimized sleep at night to allow our skin to restore itself.

While we’re leaving nitty gritty politics and science to the pros, we’re happy to help you discover this season’s must-have wellness products to help you look and feel better than ever thanks to a few simple tricks. All the items in this wellness edit can be found right here at the best mall in Miami. Prepare yourself because people will be questioning whether you actually lost an hour of sleep and your friends will be begging for your secret!

SLEEPING BEAUTY

Getting adequate sleep is the top recommendation for overcoming Daylight Saving Time. Experts suggest trying to go to bed 15, 30, then 45 minutes earlier in the week leading up to the switch. Limiting alcohol and caffeine consumption 4 to 6 hours before bedtime and avoiding electronics an hour before bed will also promote healthier sleep. If you have trouble sleeping, consider incorporating some of these top-rated items.
