Your Routine Before Bed

[CaptainRaven40]

I shave in the morning as do a lot of others. I know there are many who shave at night. But for those who shave in the morning what is your routine with your face before bed? I am trying to find something that might work for me and keep my skin moisturized and healthy in between shaves. So share your routine if you don't mind.

I usually fall asleep in front of the TV with the right side of my face leaning lightly on the leather recliner. I'm not sure it helps my morning shave, but I seem to be good at it.

I sadly don't have a leather recliner...

It really depends on the day. I often just go to bed without doing anything.

However, if my shave that day was rough at all, I put on a little Thayers witch hazel and a moisturiser.

If my shave was ok but I have been sweating more then usual then I wash my face with a mild soap and then apply Aveeno.
Yet another scenario, in the winter if my face is a bit dry, I also wash but then I apply cetaphil cream. Its a bit thicker and very moisturizing.

I wash my face when I get home from work (about 1am) and follow it up with Nivea sensative skin balm before bed. My face always feels pretty good in the morning... YMMV

Warm, wet face washer: a gentle wipe/scrub all over, moisturizer or balm. Helps.
