Why do you need a night cream?

What is the overnight recovery process?

While we sleep, our bodies are designed to recover and repair themselves. Nighttime is not only a time for you to relax and recharge, it’s also the perfect time for your skin to regenerate . The skin goes through its own nightly repair process, similar to how the body works to recover. Your skin is busy protecting itself from environmental aggressors like air pollution and UV rays during the day, but at night, it switches to a “healing” phase. Your skin’s metabolism increases as you prepare for bed. Since an increased metabolism is responsible for the production of new skin cells, this is the perfect time to use nourishing skin care products as they work more efficiently and produce healthy skin cells. As a result, adding proper skin care routines before bed can help enhance the overnight recovery process and produce better results. The most important thing to achieving and maintaining beautiful skin is maintaining a strong skin barrier. When we use a night cream, it adds an extra layer of hydration and protection to the skin's natural nighttime process. A night cream is great for all skin types, but it is especially helpful for dry, sensitive or dehydrated skin because it is generally more emollient and works to nourish and restore the skin.

What is the benefit of using a night cream?

1. Protects against environmental stressors: The skin is your body’s first line of defense against environmental aggressors that it is regularly exposed to. This leads to an increase in free radicals in the skin, which affects premature aging, dryness and dullness of the skin. It is only when our body is asleep that our skin then has the opportunity to rest. It is important to use a restorative and moisturizing night cream to prevent the impact of environmental stresses on the skin. 2. Prevents Transepidermal Water Loss: We know how vital it is to maintain a healthy and strong skin barrier, this will also help prevent transepidermal water loss if you use a night cream. In our Vitality Sleeping Mask, UNISOOTH ST 32 supports and improves the resistance of the skin barrier, while the HYDRASOME Plumps plumper fills and hydrates the skin, its matrix traps water molecules to become a “real reservoir”. The other ingredients in the Vitality Sleeping Mask such as NOVHYAL + MG2+ will regenerate cells to restore volume to the skin, smooth fine lines and refresh the look in the long term. Applying a night cream enriched with vitamin C will infuse the skin with these powerful active ingredients so that you wake up with nourished and hydrated skin. Everyday life can often be tiring and stressful. So make sure you take time for your nighttime routine. Once you give yourself and your skin the love and care you deserve, you'll wake up feeling refreshed and radiant, ready to face the next day!
