Skin needs as much care at night as you take care of it during the day. The skin gets damaged a lot due to sunlight, dust-soil, pollution and makeup throughout the day. In such a situation, it becomes very important to clean it and use night cream before sleeping at night. Most of the women think that if they are using a good moisturizer during the day then night cream is not necessary. However, it is not like that.
Not only this, people have different thoughts about night cream. Many times we start using day cream only at night. We think it won't make any difference, but this is also a myth. Since the skin is in repairing mode at night and hence the right products are used, it gives immense benefits to the skin. So, today in this article, we are telling you about some such myths related to night cream and their truth-
Myth 1: Only day cream can be used at night
Truth- Many people think that day and night creams are the same thing. Therefore, they can use the cream used during the day at night as well while this is wrong. You might not be aware, but day creams are usually lighter than night creams and contain SPF to protect the skin from the sun. Some sunscreens can clog pores, so it is not considered appropriate to use them at night. At the same time, night cream proves helpful in skin hydration and repair.
Myth 2: Young age doesn't need night cream.
Truth- Many people avoid applying night cream because they see it somewhere like an anti-ageing product. In such a situation, they feel that there is no need to apply night cream for 20 or 30 days while this is also a complete myth. You may not know, but the production of collagen in the maintenance of hair, skin and nails can start decreasing from the age of 25. Many night creams contain ingredients that help keep your skin, hair, and nails healthy. In such a situation, you should start using night cream only after the age of 20.
Myth 3: Night cream works only if it is expensive.
Truth- This is a common misconception people have about skincare products. They think that night cream or any other cream works on the skin only when it is expensive. If it is expensive, it means that it must be of good quality. While this is completely wrong. High-end luxury brands range from celebrities to fancy packaging and spend a lot of money on marketing. Therefore, their products are also more expensive. It is better that before buying any night cream, read its label and know in detail about the ingredients.
