Night time routines are more important than morning routines because through out the day our skin is exposed to environmental stressor like dirt, oil and air pollution. If we neglect taking care of our skin properly before we lay down at night then all of that bacteria and debris will skin deep into our skin, clog our pores, create fine line and possibly worse.
