Richer and more potent than your day moisturizers, night creams are formulated to work hard while skin is in sleep mode.

Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Night Cream Review Skincare Natural Beauty Wise Up

We put Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Night Cream to the test, as we clock in some much-deserved beauty sleep.

Dynamic Resurfacing Night Cream gently exfoliates and stimulates cellular ‘spring cleaning’ capabilities at night. As cell turnover is increased, excess oil is cleared without blocking the pores or causing breakouts.

This ‘sleep in a bottle’ serum reduces the levels of aging toxins in our skin, so skin looks fresher, brighter and (crucially) more youthful.

The cream absorbs well without an uncomfortable or greasy feeling. We apply this regenerating night cream before hitting the pillow and, oh boy, does this Dynamic Resurfacing Night Cream work – the next morning we wake up with renewed, brighter and clearer-looking skin that feels incredibly soft, supple, hydrated and (crucially) more youthful.

How to use Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Night Cream?

Squeeze a pea size amount into the palm and warm hands together. Smooth over cleansed and toned face neck, and decollete. Use daily, at night time.

Results

Renews, smoothes and nourishes the skin. Existing lines and wrinkles and imperfections appear reduced as a younger-looking skin is uncovered.
Skin feels soft and super-hydrated.

Who it’s for

For all skin types, even oily skin
