Spotlight on Night Cap Cream
The best winter night cream to boost moisture and blood flow and make your skin glow in a time when cold weather and a cranking heater sap moisture from your skin and body.
This top-tier cream is a wonderful addition to your nightly ritual. Although it can be used day and night, I love to layer it on top of my regular lotion as a highly moisturizing “night cap”. The “cap” indicates a top-layer product and points to its powerhouse antiaging ingredient: capsaicin.
Capsaicin, the active compound in chili peppers, employs strong antioxidants to combat the free radical damage that causes premature aging, wrinkles, and dryness. It also has been proven to help with hyperpigmentation issues like melasma and sun spots.
This multi-tasking cream also incorporates a powerful cocktail of other antioxidants combined with Vitamin A to diminish fine lines, wrinkles, and premature aging due to sun exposure. Vitamin A boasts a long list of clinically proven restorative properties to fight free radical damage as well as restore and renew firmness, elasticity, and thickness to the skin.
