The ability of splurging and leaving without a hole in your wallet is simply amazing. I get my regular L'oreal and Barbary Daly from Tesco's quite a few times. I wish I had more of those larger Tesco's in proximity.
Anyhow, here's another gem from their skincare aisle. Skin Wisdom's Ultimate Lift Night Cream (£7.50). If I am correct, I have only seen this line retailing at Tesco's and no where else. I reckon UK skincare expect Bharti Vyas only makes it for them.
It is targeted towards those between 35 and 50 but prevention is definitely better then cure hence I do not see the problem in using this in my 20's, especially after knowing that skin starts losing it's elasticity after 25. Freaky I know!
A night cream is not a must-have in my opinion as I myself do seem to get lazy and forget applying one quite often. However I would seriously like to get into a habit of applying one before going to sleep.
I especially have combination-dry skin which needs every bit of moisture available and the feeling of going to sleep with a 'tight face' just makes me cringe.
Night creams in my opinion should be rich in texture and ingredients as opposed to a day cream. Cleansing and Toning strips off moisture which then should be replenished and I feel this cream works just right. It's rich and leaves skin dewy and supple, however not in a way that it may clog pores.
The consistency of this is light and fluffy, think L'oreal creams? I think they have the best texture ever!
I have been using this at night for a while now and my skin definitely feels more firmer, hydrated and supple as compared to its confused, dull self. I feel my skin's loving this extra pampering at night and the extra hydration is really showing results.
I feel this is definitely more suitable for those with Dry/combination skin types as compared to those with Oily skin.
I've heard a lot of raving about a certain Beauty Balm from the Skin Wisdom range which is supposedly meant to be a dupe for a pricey Clarins product. I might just pop that in to mum's gift bag for her Birthday!
Just to remind you that Tesco's Beauty Awards are still running and need your votes especially if you're a frequent shopper there and know about the products nominated. Voters have a chance to win a set of 55 products each week for 16 weeks and are entered into a prize draw to win a 7 day trip to Antigua for two.
What is your take on Night Creams ladies?
In the wintertime, i use 'night' cream all the time for my face because it gets so dry. but in the summertime i do without.
i just use the day cream whenever i feel dry, not even all the time.
I have tried the Beauty Balm from Skin Wisdom and its fab! I'll have to try this product now :)
This is beyond cool!!! :D ♥ night creams!!
