Sleep gives our skin the chance to renew, leaving it softer, smoother and plumper by morning. And the right night cream can play a big role in that. Our new Dream Night Cream is the key to waking up with rested, refreshed, radiant skin that looks and feels great all day.
What Is a Night Cream?
Night creams have traditionally been incredibly rich, hydrating moisturizers designed to be applied before bed. When we sleep, our skin is prone to water loss. The good news? This is also the time our skin goes into repair mode; cell regeneration accelerates, and skin is more receptive to nourishment. Now, all of this is automatically going to happen if you're getting your recommended eight hours a night. That said, a night cream is the best way to support your skin’s natural repair phase. While you sleep, the active ingredients in your night cream can really go to work, undisturbed, without getting broken down by sunlight, makeup or sweat.
So What Makes Our Night Cream Different?
We wanted to develop an overnight moisturizer that goes beyond the benefits of a typical night cream and actually revives dry, stressed, aging skin. When you’re stressed, your skin shows it in the form of dullness, dryness, dark circles, wrinkles and breakouts. Life comes in waves. Give your skin a rest with Dream Night Cream. Our latest innovation was inspired by psychodermatology—a field that deals with the connection between our mind and skin. After dedicating years to research and development, we've finally created a product that targets the root causes of premature aging: stress and sleep deprivation. We designed our new cream to work with the skin’s natural overnight repair functions that are already in action. But this isn’t an ordinary moisturizer; it’s the first night cream clinically shown to reduce the effects of stress on skin.
Wake Up to Results You Can Sea
A lot of testing had to happen to get the formula just right. First we performed clinical testing on our formula to assess its effects on the seven signs of stress on skin: dark circles, dullness, dryness, uneven texture, fine lines and wrinkles, lack of elasticity and lack of firmness. Dream Night Cream was clinically proven to firm skin in just two weeks.* It was also clinically proven to visibly reduce dark circles by 80% in 4 weeks.*
Then we did a consumer-perception study. The subjects recruited for testing had moderate to high stress levels as determined by the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), the most widely used psychological instrument for measuring the perception of stress. The results blew us away:
- 97% agreed skin instantly felt softer & smoother*
- 94% agreed skin felt instantly hydrated, moisturized & soothed*
- 90% agreed skin looked more radiant & firm*
- 94% agreed skin looked brighter*
*Based on a clinical & consumer-perception study conducted over 4 weeks on 30 women ages 33-60, using before bed.
So can a less stressed, more peaceful mind really transform your skin? In the case of Dream Night Cream, the answer is a resounding yes.
How It Works
Our formula harnesses some of nature’s most potent stress-relieving ingredients, backed by extensive clinical research.
King of Bitters
This powerful super-plant improves signs of fatigue in tired skin. This is where the formula’s ability to reduce the effects of stress on skin really kicks in. Fun fact: This extract was tested on night-shift workers and was shown to reduce undereye bags, dark circles and wrinkles.
Organic Wild Lavender
Renowned for its calming and relaxing effects on your mind and skin, the lavender used in this unique formula was tested on sleep-deprived individuals and demonstrated visible improvements in texture, wrinkles, dark circles and skin radiance. The herb we use is sustainably sourced from Provence, France.
Bio Retinol
Bio retinol is a safe and stable alternative to retinol that visibly improves lines and wrinkles and provides retinol-like results without irritation. Ours is derived from blue-green microalgae from the pristine Klamath Lake in Oregon and is loaded with linolenic acid, amino acids and vitamin B12. The beautiful thing about our bio retinol is that there’s no need to start slowly, like you would with traditional retinol, or avoid specific ingredients (like your favorite AHAs and BHAs). Our bio retinol does not cause photosensitivity, but you should always apply sunscreen prior to sun exposure.
Pink Rock-Rose Extract
Improves dullness and dehydration for healthier, more youthful-looking skin. Rich in antioxidants, polyphenols and flavonoids. Sustainably hand-harvested from the Mediterranean, this flowering shrub can withstand multiple environmental stressors, particularly harsh desert temperatures, as well as photo-oxidative stress.
5 Vital Hydrators
And last but not even slightly least, we blended five of the creamiest hydrators to smooth and deeply moisturize skin.
Squalane: 100% plant-derived (from sustainable sugarcane); provides powerful, long-lasting yet weightless moisturization.
Shea Butter: Revives dry skin, leaving it soft, smooth and deeply moisturized.
Glycerin: Gently moisturizes, smooths and hydrates.
Macadamia Oil: Moisturizes, nourishes and conditions skin.
Safflower Seed Oil: Emollient oil derived from the safflower plant nourishes and soothes dry skin.
How to Maximize Your Night Cream
For next-level beauty sleep, we recommend using our new Dream Night Cream after cleansing and applying face serum but before face oil for skin that looks and feels its best round the clock.
Cleanse
Every night before bed, use our bestselling seaweed-infused Ocean Cleanser to remove everything from makeup to excess oils.
Treat
Follow with our Hyaluronic Sea Serum, clinically proven to instantly increase hydration and visibly minimize lines and wrinkles.
Moisturize
And now for the main event: Massage Dream Night Cream into your face and neck until it has absorbed. Take a few moments to enjoy the relaxing lavender scent while it sinks in.
Exfoliate
When your skin is well exfoliated, your products can sink in more easily to do their best work. Twice a week, use our Seaglow Overnight Serum AHA Treatment right before Dream Night Cream for smoother, softer, brighter-looking skin by morning.
Sweet dreams!
