Yes, it’s true.  A night cream is different from a day cream, and without it, you cut your results in half if not more.  This is partly because of the way the body works.  Frankly speaking, at night, your pores open up.  This doesn’t sound appealing, especially for those with large pores already.  But it’s actually a good thing.  The skin is able to properly repair itself and also better absorb things around it if you are getting that restful beauty sleep you need.  If you use a night cream therefore, they tend to be higher in moisturizers as well as using active ingredients, and you can therefore get the right results.

In addition, while a night cream during the day would actually clog the pores, your skin is prepared to deal with it at night, and therefore it can give the greater results you want without causing further damage such as acne or otherwise.  So when you ask why night creams are important, here’s your answer.  They help your skin to repair itself, which is well over half the battle.

 They will dress better, use make up if they have to, and frankly celebrities have used cosmetics for years.  Even men have used it not only for parts, but in general terms.  So why not follow that trend.  That being said, there are male specific lines even.  You should remember not to pay more or for that matter trust them any more than you would others, because to be honest, skin types do not differ between sexes. 

They differ between individuals.  But of course, people aren’t inclined to think about it that way.  They listen to marketing ploys.  So of course, while there are some men’s lines that actually do have some of the right ingredients, don’t base your decisions on that, because of course it won’t hold out under the harsh light of day.

You can use more intensive ingredients with a night cream, because your skin can handle it and even benefit from it at night whereas the same ingredients might cause irritation and otherwise in a day cream.  It is a fine balance.  But you definitely need both.  I’m just saying I value the night cream more.  Moreover, if you use a serum both day and night with both day and night creams, you will actually multiply your results that you would see with either one of those creams.  So a serum is also quite essential all things considered.  If you combine it with your night cream however, it can ensure even deeper seated results and greater benefits over a shorter period of time.
