These superstar products do the work while you sleep so you don't need to waste time in your day.Let's face it: Most of us don't have a lot of time to devote to pampering, least of all in the morning. Good news: There's a slew of products on the market designed to work while you sleep so that your skin and hair can recharge while you do. These tips from Fitness and Shape beauty director Kate Sandoval Box take mere minutes (max two, we promise!) to prep and then work their magic overnight so you don't have to think twice about them.
Get a youthful radiance (15 seconds)
Skin renewal kicks into overdrive while you sleep, making it the best time for a supercharged mask treatment. An overnight mask won't leave behind any goop or grease on your pillowcase.
Smooth skin with a peel (20 seconds)
An overnight peel with exfoliating alpha hydroxy acids like glycolic, lactic, or citric will resurface and soften the appearance of fine lines overnight. If acne is your main skin concern, try zapping it overnight with one of these blemish fighters that work their magic while you snooze.
Silky, healthy hair (30 seconds)
Apply a leave-in, overnight hair mask to you hair—damp or dry, it doesn't matter. The formula will seep into your strands and reverse over-processing and repair damage while you sleep.
Score Easy, Tousled Waves (2 minutes)
Take a shower before bed, then braid your hair in one loose braid for loose waves. When you wake up in the morning, unbraid, muss it up with your fingers a bit, spritz on a shine-enhancing spray, and go.
