Relaxing Melatonin and Lavender Mask
Most face masks either hydrate or relax you, but stressed skin needs both because tension and poor sleep literally age your face faster. This one works on two levels: melatonin absorbs through your skin to signal your nervous system to calm down, while lavender and chamomile extracts reduce the cortisol that breaks down collagen when you're stressed. The botanical blend targets inflammation at the cellular level, since chronic stress creates low-grade inflammation that makes your skin look tired and older. Willow bark gently exfoliates stress-damaged surface cells while sage boosts circulation to bring fresh nutrients to tired skin. This doesn't just make your skin look better temporarily but interrupts the stress-aging cycle, so you wake up with skin that looks as rested as you feel.
