Our bodies absorb the most nutrients while we are sleeping, which makes
night creams and moisturisers the best way to treat our skin with all
those juicy vitamins, mineral and anti-ageing agents. Take advantage of
your sleeping hours and wake up with skin you can only dream of with one
of these gorgeous night creams.

Anti-ageing
skin care professionals, La Prairie, give you a night cream that is

levels of collagen to reduce wrinkles and enhance smoothness. You can

cream has to offer.
RRP $280. Available at selected David Jones and beauty salons nationally
La Prairie’s International Head of Training, Jo Jackson, explains the difference between a day cream and a night cream:
La Prairie’s Day Creams are designed to work in harmony with your skins natural day time functions, for example, defence and protection. In fact, the skin is so busy defending itself during the day it has little time to focus on anything else. As a result, La Prairie’s Night Creams work in harmony with the skin’s natural night time functions, support the skin with cell renewal, replenishment and regeneration. Its only at night, while you sleep that your skin has time to repair damage done during the day. So a night cream is very important to invest in especially if you want to keep the signs of premature aging at bay.
Wrinkle Busting: L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Night Cream
The
hero ingredient of this night cream is pro-retinol A, a fantastic
anti-ageing agent which stimulates skin regeneration to thicken the
skin. This is a great option for those of you who don’t want to spend a
fortune, but are looking to treat your ageing skin with a little bit
more attention and care.
RRP $30.95. Available at pharmacies, department stores and variety stores.
L’Oreal Paris beauty experts explain why you will benefit from a night cream:
Before you go to sleep, carefully select products which will help care
for your skin. You should avoid day creams which are designed to hydrate
and protect your skin against external aggressions. Instead, use night
creams which are designed to act when the skin is at rest and not being
exposed to external aggressions. The formulas tend to be richer and are
designed to give your skin a real boost of care.

in antioxidants to improve the health and quality of your skin, this
