While it’s no secret that we all dream of falling asleep and being able to wake up looking gorgeous, this typically doesn’t happen all that often. But luckily there are more and more beauty products specifically designed to work while you sleep, so you can wake up looking like you’ve slept a full eight hours, even if you haven’t. From lotions that soothe and calm to hydrating night oils, we’ve rounded up our seven must-have products that give the term beauty sleep a whole new meaning. Sweet dreams!
The Eye Cream
For those nights when you go to bed much later than usual, apply this overnight eye treatment. It defends against wrinkles, puffy eyes, and dark circles and overall signs of fatigue. Persian silk tree helps supports your skin’s natural night-time detox, while a blend of encapsulated retinyl palmitate, hyaluronic acid, botanical oils, and plant extracts helps support natural cell renewal. 29Secrets Pick: This Works No Wrinkles Tired Eyes, $77

If you have yet to treat your skin with oil-based skincare, Sunday Riley’s Luna Sleeping Night Oil is the perfect product to start with. This retinol goes to work overnight to give you brighter, more luminous, and even-toned skin by morning. Blue tansy and German chamomile help calm the skin and balance out redness, while the trans-retinoic Acid Ester (retinol) encourages exfoliation and revitalization for the appearance of smoother, younger-looking skin. 29Secrets Pick: Sunday Riley Luna Sleeping Night Oil, $135
