Many people buy one moisturizer, usually a day cream, and use it all year long — both day and night. The thought of adding an additional cream to your daily skincare routine may sound trivial but it can work wonders.
Today we’re exploring the top four reasons why you should incorporate a night cream into your skincare routine…
Quality night creams are packed with anti-aging and smoothing ingredients. A great choice for superficial wrinkles that works with all skin types is Yon-Ka’s Phyto 52. This night cream naturally firms and nourishes the skin with beech bud peptides and hazelnut oil. Repairing aloe and vitamin E also protects and hydrates the skin. With nightly use, skin is revitalized, regains suppleness and vitality.
Some anti-aging and exfoliating ingredients make your skin more sensitive to sunlight like acids and retinoids. For this reason, their optimal use is during the night when you won’t be at risk of UV exposure.
If you’re currently using an anti-aging cream for day usage and are suffering from redness or irritation, this may be why. Consider switching to a daytime specific moisturizer, and save your exfoliating anti-aging ingredients for nighttime. A good night cream will allow you to get the same benefits without the irritation.
Either way, you should always be wearing sunscreen during the day to protect skin. Especially if you are using any products with anti-aging, brightening, or exfoliating ingredients. Even when they are not on your skin, these ingredients can increase your sensitivity to the sun long after they’ve been washed off.
While you’re sleeping, your skin temperature rises about half a degree because blood travels away from internal organs to the skin. While this change is very subtle, it does allow products to absorb into your skin better.
Wearing a night cream allows you to deliver ingredients more effectively, and for a longer period of time. Most of us sleep an average of 6-8 hours a night. When you apply a night cream before you go to sleep, you are giving it the right setting and time to work its magic without interruption or makeup getting in the way.
Heavier creams packed with hydrating emollients can provide deep moisture, but they aren’t always convenient for daytime use. Whether worn alone or under makeup, they aren’t exactly formulated for on-the-go wear.
At night, there’s no hesitance in looking “oily” or wearing a heavy cream. This is just another reason why you should save the anti-aging and deep moisturizing products for night, when you can wear them in comfort and fully take advantage of their benefits.
