HOT ! Luzern Crème Nuit

Supercharged night cream with retinol that works across a wide range of skin types / 2 oz full size

Luzern’s new Crème Nuit (formerly Retinol Crème Luxe) might just be our favorite nighttime moisturizer.

First of all, we love retinol — which, like Retin-A, is a derivative of Vitamin A — because it\'s the gold standard in anti-aging skincare. There are decades of data to attest to its efficacy and safety, and new formulations have rendered it less irritating. Even the more delicate flowers among us can enjoy its benefits: smoother skin, increased collagen synthesis, less hyperpigmentation, even the reversal of sun-induced damage from days gone by. (Fantastic news for those of us who might have tanned a tad too aggressively during spring break in college. For example.)

Nighttime is the ideal time to benefit from supercharged ingredients like retinol — your skin is in its rest and repair mode, free from its struggle with sun and pollution — and this nighttime moisturizer with retinol packs a serious punch. It blends 0.15% retinol with 0.5% bakuchiol, a plant extract that boosts retinol’s efficacy without irritation. And, because it’s a high-achiever Luzern formula, it’s also loaded up with other proven-to-perform goodies: long-chain hyaluronic acid to hydrate and plump, short-chain hyaluronic acid to firm, a lipid complex to strengthen skin’s barrier, brightening Vitamin C and Swiss alpine botanicals, and the brand’s signature oxygenating, glow-boosting fermentation complex (which now includes CoQ10). In short, this pot of whipped buttery magic is perfection.
