Why Sleep Directly Impacts Skin Aging (The Science)

Why Sleep Directly Impacts Skin Aging (The Science)

The Neuropharmacology of Beauty Sleep

As a PhD neuropharmacologist, I developed Lumineur Sleep & Glow after 6+ years studying how sleep deprivation accelerates skin aging at the cellular level.

The Science:


- During deep NREM sleep, growth hormone spikes 300-500% to repair skin cells
- Cortisol surges 50% higher with <6hrs sleep = collagen breakdown accelerates
- Poor sleep reduces antioxidant defenses by 30%, increasing UV damage

My Formula Targets:

  1. Neurotransmitter balance for faster sleep onset

  2. HPA-axis regulation to cut nighttime cortisol spikes

  3. Cellular repair signaling during deep sleep phases

Takeaway: 7 nights better sleep = visible skin firmness improvement.
