When it comes to skincare, there’s one thing that isn’t up for debate: everyone should be using a night cream in their skin regimen. Especially for mature skin, using one daily is crucial for keeping your complexion looking its best and preventing signs of aging.

Why Night Creams Are So Important For Anti-Aging

Your skin absorbs ingredients better at night than during the day. This is because while you sleep, your body enters repair mode. In this reparative state, your skin is very receptive to the products you applied before bedtime. That’s why they call it beauty sleep!

A night cream is way more than a just a nighttime moisturizer. It’s designed to deliver powerful anti-aging ingredients and nutrients to your skin during its regeneration process to prevent dryness, fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of firmness.

The Benefits Of Using A Night Cream:

  • Hydrate and moisturize your face
  • Soothes redness and irritation
  • Boosts collagen in your skin
  • Noticeably softens skin
  • Firms and prevents skin from sagging
  • Reduces wrinkles and fine lines
  • Renews and nourishes skin cells

It's easy for mature skin to become dry and dehydrated because your natural oil product decreases. Using an ultra-hydrating mask at night is a great way to replenish your skin's moisture barrier while you sleep. “Avocado is ultra hydrating, while a polyhydroxy acid called gluconolactone exfoliates dead cells to brighten the skin,” Dr. Zeichner tells Health.
