Yet there are an infinite number of ways that someone can go about it.
First up: Rachel Brosnahan, star of the award-winning Amazon Prime showThe Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Miriam Midge Maisel, the titular protagonist ofThe Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, has a rather extreme nighttime routine.
For Brosnahan, having a routine that helps her sleep, andstayasleep, is the priority.
Im not a great sleeper; sleeping is hard, she tells SELF.
Maiselpremiered its third season on December 6 and was renewed for a fourth season a week later.
Especially as you get really busy, these kinds of routines become more important, she says.
Read more on what its like to sleep with Brosnahan, below.
On her backward skin-care routine
I shower at night, rather than in the morning.
When I get out of the shower, Ill use theCetaphil Gentle Makeup Remover.
After, Ill do theCetaphil Purifying Clay Maskonce or twice a week.
Then I use theVintners Daughter Active Botanical Serumto follow it.
I dont wash my hair every day.
I try not to wash my hair every day, especially because I color treat it.
After I shower Ill usually lie down with my dogs.
I like to cuddle with my dogs at nightthats kind of my consistent form of self-care.
At some point I kick them off onto their own beds.
At the end of the day, my feet hurt so much.
Sometimes Ill step on a ball, or Ill do some twisting in bed.
Recently Ive been really intoThe Daily.
I have, many times, fallen asleep with a script on my face, especially withMaisel.
I actually dont have a TV in my house.
I havent had one for seven years.
I dont think I would ever have a TV in my bedroom.
Or, Oh, crap, I have to respond to that text message.
I do think it keeps me up, so I try not to do it.
But Im not very successful at that.
I charge my phone overnight on the floor under my bedside table.
I dont want to be tempted to reach for it.
On the best tools for bad sleepers
I need to sleep with an eye mask.
Extra light filters into my apartment, so I sleep with one of those silk ones.
Its super simple, but I really love theDohm White Noise Machine.
It just has two parameters; its not anything complicated.
I love it, and I travel with it when Im in strange hotel rooms or apartments.
Im not a great sleeper, in case you couldnt tell.
On going commando
I alternate what I wear to sleep.
Sometimes I wear pants and a T-shirt.
But generally its just a T-shirt and stretchy pants.
No socks, no underwear.
Well, listenwe should be open about this stuff.
I always set three, and theyre 12 minutes apart.
Im about five minutes late for things, no matter how much time I give myself.
I could wake up an hour before I need to leave and Im five minutes late.
I hate being late and I stress about it all the time.
If anyone has any advice, its my New Years resolution every year.
