Do I really need both day and night cream?
Some things are just better when combined. Salt and pepper. Girls and shoes. Cocktails and the beach. The same goes for your day and night cream.
You’re probably not questioning the importance of your day cream, your regular moisturiser. But the thought of needing a night cream has probably crossed your mind. It’s okay, we get you. You want to be as minimal as possible, but your day and night creams aren’t something you want to choose between. Your skin has different needs, based on what you’re doing. For example, walking the city streets vs. sleeping. One activity requires protection, while the other is time for healing.
Why you need separate day and night creams,
The different roles of your AM and PM lotions.
There are two key features that separate day and night creams. Daytime moisturisers protect you from environmental stressors. They tend to be more lightweight and easy to apply sunscreen and makeup over, without looking shiny. Night moisturisers are thicker and contain ingredients like retinoids and glycolic acid – which are designed for night use because they can make your skin sensitive to the sun.
While day and night creams share some ingredients, they do serve different functions. A day cream combined with sunscreen will protect you from the sun and oxidative stress, and act as a powerful antioxidant (for age-reversing). At night, your moisturiser will heal, tighten, tone and empower your skin.
