Do I Need a Night Cream?

Do I Need a Night Cream?

At Nakin we believe that we do not need to use a separate night cream. This is because skin does not change during the night, and it still needs exactly the same amount of nourishment, hydration and nutrition. During the night, our skin goes into repair mode, so it benefits from support for this, to help it do a good job. But this support comes in the same form as the ones we use in the day, such as antioxidants, skin revivers, hydrators and protectors. So at Nakin we believe that we do not need to use a separate night cream, and a good day cream like our natural moisturisers are more than adequate. We cannot speak for everyday cream available as it will depend on the ingredients that it is formulated with. But we know our face creams contain the absolute best in plant actives and extracts, to support skin beautifully during both the day and night.

At Nakin all of our products are made with lots of anti-ageing plant actives and extracts and we have two face creams that are for day and night use, and can be chosen based upon skin type. The Matt Formula Face Cream is for oily, combination, normal and sensitive skin and the Active Dew Face Cream is for dry, combination, normal and sensitive skin. Both of our face creams are for day and night use and free from SPF. This is because they are rich in natural actives and extracts that give all the hydration, nourishment, and protection for both day and night use. If your skin is normal or combination then you can pick one based on the finish you prefer, if you like a more hydrating dewy finish then the Active Dew Face Cream might be a better option, but if you prefer something that sinks in more quickly, or use a thick foundation then the Matt Formula Face Cream would be better.

There is also a common misconception that during the night our skin needs a much thicker cream, and this is something that we do not agree with at Nakin. This is because a thick cream can be too much for skin during the day and night, and will potentially just sit on the skin surface and affect the way skin breathes, so to speak.

We hope that you have found our blog about using a night cream useful. Night creams are claimed to be important by many companies, but the truth is that your skin needs consistent care throughout the day in order to remain healthy and youthful. During the day, your skin is exposed to environmental pollutants such as UV rays and other toxins. These pollutants can cause oxidative damage which leads to signs of ageing like wrinkles and sagging skin. To combat this damage, you need a good antioxidant-rich daytime moisturiser like one of ours, and extra SPF protection. This will help protect your skin from harmful toxins while also providing hydration and nourishment, these then work just as well during the night. Additionally, it is important to make sure you cleanse properly both morning and night—this will help remove dirt and oil build-up that can clog pores and lead to breakouts. By making sure you are taking proper care and protecting your skin from environmental damage, you do not need an additional night cream. So instead of spending money on another product, just make sure you’re properly caring for and protecting your skin during the day and night with good natural anti-ageing face products.
