Night is the time when the skin works.
While our body is resting, our skin is working hard: regenerating cells, fighting inflammation, repairing damage from the day, and even “learning” from the stress of the day. This cycle is not a myth – it is a biological fact.
Studies show that around 10:00 PM–2:00 AM, skin cells reach maximum renewal activity at night, and skin permeability increases during the night, so active ingredients are absorbed more efficiently.
What actually happens to the skin when it sleeps?
1. Increases cell regeneration
Skin cells multiply faster at night – up to 2-3 times faster than during the day, especially in the epidermis. This process helps to repair damaged or “tired” cells.
2. The protective function decreases – penetration increases
At night, the skin barrier becomes thinner and more permeable. This means that serums, ampoules, and night creams have the ability to penetrate deeper – if they are selected properly.

3. Oxidative stress decreases – “repair” begins
During the day, the skin accumulates free radicals, suffers UV and pollution damage. At night, the body activates antioxidant systems that help neutralize damage.

4. Collagen production is activated
During sleep, more melatonin and growth hormones are released, which directly contribute to collagen synthesis – meaning firmer, more elastic skin in the morning.

Why is "night cream" not a marketing gimmick?
It's a common myth that night creams are just day creams with a different name. But science shows otherwise: night creams often have:
-
stronger concentration (e.g. peptides, antioxidants, ceramides),
-
without SPF, so the active ingredients work without interference,
- deeper moisturizing and restorative effect, because the skin does not need to be protected from UV or pollution.
