Sleep deprivation is a reality and the consequences of not sleepingThe effects of stress, which are evident in our bodies, are also evident in our bodies. Too little rest can become the cause of discomfort, lack of mood, being tense and, above all, the cause of increased stress.
Many studies recommend sleeping between 8 and 9 hours, although the minimum you should sleep should always be 8 hours. If, for various reasons or circumstances, you start to sleep less than the recommended hours and make it a habit, you will see how your body notices and reflects it. A part of us that is probably the first to show the lack of rest is the skin.
Poor sleep takes a toll on your skin and body
Many of us probably think that too little sleep is only reflected in the dark circles under our eyes and the continuous yawning during the day. However, lack of sleep not only has these effects, but also has a greater impact on our bodies than we think:
- Making this habit a habit affects the way glucose is processed in our body. One of the most serious consequences is the possible onset of diabetes and, as a consequence of poorly processing the sugar in our body, also overweight.
- Lack of memory. The fact is that too little sleep greatly affects our brain. Several studies show the relationship between lack of sleep and poor information retention.
- Increased appetite. More of the hormone cortisol is generated and this makes us want to eat more.
- Hair loss. Lack of sleep is directly implicated in hormonal disorders, which cause increased hair loss.
- Emotional changes. States of depression, anger, sadness... These are more common when we rest less than the recommended number of hours.
- Skin problems. Too little rest is also visible on the skin. The appearance of spots, redness and bacteria, among others, are some of the problems that our skin can suffer from a lack of rest.

Some of the consequences of poor sleep for the skin are:
- Approximate 50% increase in expression lines. Wrinkles will also suffer the same increase.
- Increase in facial blemishes. Not very high percentages, but high enough to pay attention to.
- Bacteria take the opportunity when we rest less than we should and increase their presence by 16%.
- Increased redness and blotchiness leading to a visible increase in skin imperfections.
Once we are aware of what a lack of rest causes in the medium and long term in our organism, we must take the necessary measures to correct it. Start by giving more importance to sleep than to watching a film at night and discover the properties of Aloe Vera to remedy the problems caused to our skin.
Aloe Vera: An ally within everybody's reach
The skin treatment with Aloe Vera is highly recommended to combat various problems. It has astringent properties, that is to say, it regulates the grease that may appear on the skin and reduces acne and blackheads as a direct consequence of its application.
This plant has a texture that serves to moisturising facial skin. The Aloe Vera-based masks that we can find in specialised shops are well known, masks that help us to recover the joy of the skin of the face.

Benefits of Aloe Vera for the face
- Moisturising benefits
A substance known as lignin is responsible for entering the layers of the skin to provide vitamins and amino acids, a large amount of essential amino acids that prevent water loss from the face.
- Rejuvenating properties
The plant produces fibres that are inherent to the skin, but causes them to regenerate at a faster rate than usual (7 to 8 times faster). These fibres produce collagen and make wrinkles less visible.
- Bactericidal property
The antibiotic properties of this plant are well known. It is able to prevent and combat problems caused by bacteria on the skin.
- To achieve total nourishment of the skin
Its components are responsible for encouraging proper nutrition of the skin. It helps the cell regeneration process and prevents more serious diseases.
Finally, there are many ways to apply aloe vera to the skin. Some choose to cut a piece of the plant and apply it directly to the skin, while others opt for ready-made creams. At Soivre we offer the following ampoules Flash LiftingAloe Vera, an ally for your skin on days when your face looks tired due to lack of sleep. The ampoules of instant dermotensive action are composed of collagen, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and Aloe Vera.
Whichever option you choose, one thing you must bear in mind is that living a healthy life is the main thing to prevent and cure skin diseases and diseases of the body in general. Sleep as much as you can, drink water and move around - it's all good stuff! ;-)
