Your Dermatologist Doesn’t Use An Average Night Cream, Why Do You
Night cream have been hugely successful selling millions of dollars of product every year. In some instances they might not be worth the container they are packaged in. The internet, drugstores, and beauty boutiques have been bombarded with a multitude of night creams, each promising to be the new fountain of youth. Many doctors agree including Dr. Patty Farris, a Louisiana dermatologist, “there are a lot of expensive night cream that don’t have the bang for the buck.”
Night Cream Manufacturers Distort Results
Makers exaggerate the individual results that most women see after using a night time moisturizer. These companies are out to sell a product and, of course, try to portray it in the best light possible. However some doctors believe that the companies behind the products go too far. “These companies make outrageous statements, claiming that the skin undergoes all sorts of strange processes at night that it doesn’t during the day. This is patently wrong and without proof,” according to Dr. Les Baumann, professor of dermatology at the University of Miami.
According to Doctors There are Several Proven Anti-Aging Compounds
Some ingredients, however, do a great deal to help. Dr. Baumann suggests that some well-known compounds like retinol should be used at night because they are inactivated by sunlight. Many other dermatologist also agree that there it is extremely beneficial to use night creams that contain Peptides and Vitamin C, which boosts the production of collagen smoothing wrinkles and increasing skin firmness.
To be effective a night time moisturizer must (a) contain the right ingredients (retinol, vitamin C, and peptides) in the right concentration and (b) be used for a long enough period of time to activate and work. Typically for at least five hours a night for eight weeks. If the creams are used inconsistently, the desired results will not be achieved. According to Seattle, Washington dermatologist Dr. Sandy Read, “A moisturizer will not do any good unless it is given enough time to penetrate the skin.”
In Sum
Price does not necessarily indicate the quality of a night cream. Before you purchase though, look for those that contain proven anti-aging products like retinol, vitamin C, and peptides. A resource that I recommend is http://www.nighttimemoisturizers.com. This site focuses exclusively on night creams and night cream. This online portal contains a wealth of information regarding the use and efficacy of night cream and research on the subject. Do not succumb to the unwarranted claims and do not purchase products that don’t contain the right compounds in the proper concentrations. A good night cream will help soothe the skin, increase collagen production and fight the effects of aging.
