What are the skin's needs during the day and at night?

More than just a protective envelope, the skin is a true organ. Like you, it works during the day (to defend itself) and then, in the evening, uses your sleep time to switch into “repair” mode. Discover what the skin needs day and night to build a suitable skincare routine, preserve the youthfulness of your face, and maintain the radiance of your complexion.

During the day, your skin is exposed to a demanding environment. Pollution, UV, stress, temperature variations, wind: these external aggressions weaken its balance. In the morning, it needs a routine that delivers hydration, protection, and radiance.

This is a fundamental need of the skin. After a gentle cleansing, turn to hydration to maintain and reinforce the skin barrier. Day cream, balm, fluid: choose a texture that leaves your skin supple and comfortable. Hyaluronic Acid or Plant Glycerin are star actives for this mission. They boost the skin’s capacity to capture and retain water. In doing so, they prevent dehydration, which causes discomfort and fine lines on the skin. Over time those lines can deepen: wrinkles appear.

Every day your skin fights an invisible battle. First come UVA rays which, even on a cloudy day, accelerate skin aging. The skin loses firmness earlier, wrinkles take hold, and spots dull your complexion. Sun rays, but also pollution, lack of sleep, your hectic lifestyle, and smoking generate oxidative stress. That means there are too many free radicals in your body. These unstable molecules damage your skin cells: cutaneous aging accelerates.

To help your skin defend itself, rely on skincare containing antioxidants such as Vitamin C or Niacinamide. Their mission: neutralize free radicals. During sunny days or when exposed to sun for extended periods, be sure to also apply a broad‑spectrum sunscreen. This UVA/UVB protection shields you from sunburn and prevents premature skin aging. Choose a protection suited to your skin tone and the intensity of sun rays.

In the morning, your complexion may look somewhat dull, especially after a few short nights. A hydrating treatment plumps the skin: it becomes more luminous. By fighting free radicals, antioxidants also act on radiance, helping you rediscover a glowy* complexion.

It is at night that skin’s cellular renewal is most active. While you sleep, regeneration kicks in: it’s the time to support it with targeted treatments.

While you sleep, the skin sheds dead cells and forms new ones. It recovers from the daytime aggressions, receives the necessary nutrients and water, stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. The hydrolipidic film (the skin barrier) also takes the opportunity to strengthen, preparing for a new day.

Take advantage of the night to feed your skin with expert actives. Anti‑age, anti‑spots, anti‑imperfections: your treatments work while the skin’s cellular activity is at its peak. When you wake, skin looks truly rested, your complexion more even.

Skin’s needs differ day and night, which is why there are day creams and night creams. To simplify your beauty ritual without sacrificing effectiveness, NUXE has developed two anti‑age Exceptional Care treatments. Offered in a luxurious 75 ml format, they deliver continuous efficacy, addressing all fundamental needs throughout the day.

The Exceptional Day & Night Care Merveillance Lift was designed to correct wrinkles and help the skin regain firmness. Its non‑greasy, non‑sticky texture melts into the skin. Its formula, with a light floral scent, combines Ultra‑corrective Micro‑Algae Oil with Niacinamide.

By day, your treatment hydrates your skin, protects it, and restores radiance. By night, it strengthens the skin barrier, smooths wrinkles, leaving skin firmer and more toned. In just seven days, skin quality improves, becoming visibly more beautiful and radiantly youthful.

To boost the efficacy of Exceptional Day & Night Care Merveillance Lift, choose Super Serum [10]. You benefit from the power of 10 serums in one for universal anti‑age correction. Want to target firmness loss above all? Prefer the Firming Activator Oil‑Serum Merveillance Lift. In one month, firmness improves by 32 %***.

As the first Exceptional Day & Night Care, it has become one of NUXE’s best‑sellers in just a few months. It combines the Alfa [3R] technology, more effective than retinol**, with Niacinamide to deliver a comprehensive anti‑ageing effect. It targets deep wrinkles, skin laxity, and loss of firmness. From the very first application, skin is smoothed. Over days, it regains uniformity and radiance. The melting texture of Exceptional Day & Night Nuxuriance Ultra Care meets the skin’s day and night needs without a sticky effect or greasy finish.

Super Serum [10] makes a powerful duo with Exceptional Day & Night Nuxuriance Ultra Care. It smooths wrinkles, plumps skin, reveals radiance, hydrates, tightens pores, and repairs. Nuxuriance Ultra Spot Correcting Serum more specifically targets complexion uniformity and radiance.

Respecting the skin’s natural rhythm allows you to build an effective beauty ritual. With NUXE Exceptional Day & Night Care, enjoy a simple routine with powerful anti‑ageing action. Their expert formulations respond to skin’s needs day and night to preserve its youth.
