You know skincare is my thing, so it probably won’t be surprising to you that I have quite the evening skincare routine before bed. It’s something even my best friends have been a little in awe of.
It’s really changed the way I wind down from my day. Not only is it incredibly relaxing, but it has allowed me to really tune into what I need. Whether it’s calming essential oil on my temples or an exfoliating scrub. I consider it the time I get to come back to myself and give my skin lots of love.
Go ahead and watch the video to get the full list of things I do before I hit the pillow at night. And be sure to join the conversation in the comments below. Do you have a bedtime ritual? If so, I want to know all about it! If not, what resonated most with you about mine?
PS – Here are the links to the products I mentioned in the video:
Oat Face Polish by Naturopathica
Aimee Raupp Organic Coconut Sugar Scrub
Fresh Creme Ancienne Ultimate Nourishing Honey Mask
Fresh Creme Ancienne Eye Cream + Naturopathica’s Vitamin K Brightening Eye Serum

I love it Nitika! It’s so important to have a ritual to transition to dreamland 🙂 I always count my blessing while I’m cleansing and massaging oils into my skin, filling myself with plenty of gratitude.
Happy Valentine’s Day gorgeous! Xo

I love that you’re asking your skin (inner self) what kind care you need! I’ve never thought of doing that 🙂
The whole ritual is like giving love and nourishment to both your body and inner self 🙂
Nitika 02/14/16
Yes, that’s exactly it beauty! So glad you liked the video. Lots of love! xxx

Hey Nitika,
Loved this video… could you please leave us the links for the products you mentioned?…. I make a lot of natural face packs over the weekend with things I find in my kitchen and some of the products you mentions really piqued my interest! 🙂
One face exfoliator I absolutely love which I use often on my ‘very dry’ skin is a mix of honey lemon rosewater – i love roses, the warmth of honey and the energizing lemon scent!
Thanks so much! and yes I was very inspired!

What a beautiful way of adding a soulful and sacred intention behind your evening ritual.
Nitika 02/15/16
Thanks so much Teresa!! Glad you liked it 🙂 xxx
Annie 02/18/16
This is absolutely amazing!
I’m so excited to incorporate the “speaking to myself” aspect to my nightly regimen.
I love pampering my skin, so much that I created my own line, but this is a great way to seal the deal with your recommendation!
Thank you, you are absolutely AMAZING xox!
Nitika 02/19/16
You are so welcome, Annie! Thanks for all the love + SO glad we found each other!! Lots of love xxx

Beautiful video! I love the way you talk about your routine and I’m always excited to see what other people are using. I’m a skincare junkie as well. People always ask what I’m doing in the bathroom at night when I’m only “washing my face”. Rather than rushing through it like we do most other things, I really slow down when it comes to my skincare practice. If you get a chance you should check out some Leahlani Skincare products. They are hand made with SO much love on Kaua’i with top notch all-natural and exotic ingredients. You would love her Mermaid Mask, it will nourish your skin and fil you with love! Sending bigs hugs 🙂 xo
Nitika 02/24/16
This is exactly it Lauren – I love what you said! Thanks for getting it, so beautifully 😉
I haven’t tried that brand but OMG it sounds like I should. Will see if I can get my hands on some of their stuff. Thanks for the recommendation!! Lots of love xx

Hi Nitika,
I’m actually visiting Leah on Kauai right now and I would be more than happy to send you some of her products to try. Only because I know how much you would truly enjoy every single drop! I sent you an email to info@nitikachopra.com so you can let me know 🙂
Sending warm smiles and vibrant aloha! xo
