Bringing a new meaning to beauty sleep.

Imagine for a second that you could take a nap and wake up in full glam. Well, apparently that's the reality for Cara Delevingne. On Instagram, the model and actress shared a hilarious video of herself fast asleep in the makeup chair. “Here is something natural for you to chew on... or maybe not so natural,” she writes in the caption. “Commence the snoring.”

Her caption referenced the noticeable snores punctuating the video that confirmed she was well and truly asleep throughout the entire getting-ready process. It's a feat that's especially impressive given that her makeup artist was in the process of applying her mascara — but even with one lid lifted and a mascara wand combing through her lashes, she persevered through her power nap.

Cara has always been open with her social media followers, especially when it comes to sharing the not-so-glamorous aspects of her job (like, for example, having such a busy schedule that she had to use her getting-ready time to catch up on her beauty sleep). We're just impressed she managed to find a way to snooze and execute a camera-ready look at the same time. One note: Although the idea of sleeping while getting your makeup done sounds ideal, this is not to be confused with sleeping in your makeup. As we've found out, that particular beauty habit will yield results that are significantly less entertaining.
