As it turns out, beauty sleep is a very real thing and it pays to treat your skin to some extra nourishment while you snooze. Our Vitamin C Ceramide Night Cream helps replenish your natural ceramide levels overnight, brightens and evens out skin tone, and reduces appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Okay, so how does it work?
Ceramides are oils naturally found in our skin, working their magic alongside fatty acids and cholesterol to form what’s called a ‘lipid barrier’. This barrier works like a waterproof seal, locking the good stuff inside and keeping the nasties out.
Unfortunately, our ceramide levels decrease as we age, causing skin to gradually lose its youthful glow and develop fine lines and wrinkles that we all work hard to keep at a minimum.
There’s a silver lining though - supplementing our ceramide levels at night tops the skin up with the tools it needs to lock in hydration, block external stressors, and keep our complexion gorgeous and glowing during the day.
Think of it as a few extra-nourishing bricks added to your skin’s protective wall every night.
Vitamin C on the other hand is the turbo-charged ingredient responsible for that elusive ‘lit-from-within’ glow, working to brighten and rejuvenate your skin while you sleep.
The benefits don’t stop there either, vitamin C also helps stimulate collagen production - a protein our skin produces to retain bounce and elasticity. It’s the stuff that keeps us looking youthful and full of energy (even if our Fitbit sleep score tells us otherwise).
Here’s a quick look at some of the ingredients doing the heavy-lifting:
