How Circadian Misalignment Causes Skin Reactivity and Dullness

Your body's master clock coordinates skin's 24-hour rhythm: daytime defence mode boosts antioxidants and barrier strength against stressors, while nighttime repair mode peaks collagen synthesis, DNA repair, and lipid replenishment for recovery. Disruption from inconsistent sleep, late light exposure, or irregular meals raises inflammation, weakens barrier function, destabilises oil/cortisol balance, and slows healing—showing as redness, dehydration, jawline congestion, pigmentation reactivity, and dullness despite good skincare.

The Importance of Sleep for Health and Skin Health: Your Most Underrated Performance Lever

Sleep acts as your body’s overnight repair system, promoting collagen synthesis, strengthening the skin barrier, lowering inflammatory markers, and stabilising hormones so skin looks brighter, feels calmer, and responds better to treatments. Poor or fragmented sleep elevates cortisol, disrupts the gut microbiome, weakens immune balance, and slows recovery, often showing up as reactivity, breakouts, prolonged redness post-treatment, and a cycle of dullness despite consistent skincare.
