Night cream is an important element in one’s skincare routine, thanks to the number of powerful moisturising ingredients included in these products, which are slow-absorbing and designed to soak into the skin over several hours. Night creams vary from lightweight moisturisers to thick, rich formulas that nourish your skin and target dryness and dullness.
Many night creams are also packed with radiance-boosting ingredients and have anti-ageing qualities, working to reduce fine lines and wrinkles while firming the skin. If you’re not yet on the night cream train, now is the time.
After a browse of the Sephora Australia website, we have rounded up the five top-rated night creams available at the beauty retailer. Consider making one of these cult products your next beauty purchase.
