Day Cream vs. Night Cream: Why Your AM and PM Skincare Routine Matters

Madaming magandang benefits ang paggamit ng cream dahil madami itong nagagawa for the skin. Pero kailangan mo ba ng hiwalay na creams for day and night?

The Philippines’ tropical climate means there’s a chance of hot sunny days year-round. For many Filipinos, this means frequent sun exposure that can cause your skin to lose moisture and become dry and flaky. One way of preventing this is by having a day and night skincare routine, including applying day cream and night cream.

Day Cream and Night Cream: What’s the Difference?

There are products labeled as day creams or night creams. This can be confusing for some. Bakit kailangan pa ng separate creams? Hindi ba puwedeng one cream ang gamitin for the whole day?

The answer is: yes, there’s a real difference between day creams and night creams and it’s recommended that you have both.

During the day, your skincare routine should be focused on protecting your skin. Your skin is exposed to harmful UV rays and pollution when you’re out, so your day cream has to offer sun protection and hydration. This is to reduce the effects sun exposure, dirty air, and other factors that can affect your skin’s quality.

At night, your skincare routine should switch to repair mode to fix the damage incurred during the day. That’s why night creams are focused on recovery and moisture. When you sleep, your skincare products are focused towards rejuvenating your skin for the next day.

Building your AM/PM Skin Care Routine

It’s important to have both a day and a night routine for your whole skincare to maximize the effects of every product you use.

For your morning routine, your products should offer moisture and sun protection. A great addition to your regimen is the Gluta-C Facial Day Cream with SPF 25.
