How does an evening cream differ from a day cream, and why do you need both?

Day creams are usually formulated on the assumption that make-up or sunscreen will be applied over them: their texture is lighter, they absorb quickly and do not leave a film. Evening creams, by contrast, can be denser and more nourishing — their job is to work during the period when the skin is not exposed to UV rays and environmental pollution.

This cream is positioned specifically as an evening product: its texture is richer than that of a typical day cream, which makes it particularly suitable for those who feel tightness or dryness by the end of the day. The vitamin E in the formula helps protect the skin from environmental factors, while vitamin A is involved in renewal processes — both ingredients are often included in evening formulas; vitamin A can also increase the skin's sensitivity to the sun, which is why it is better applied in the evening.

If you already use a day cream, this product complements your routine logically: a lighter product in the morning and a more nourishing one in the evening. If, however, you use just one cream round the clock, bear in mind that this product is not intended for daytime use.
