Öökreeme

"Öökreeme" is the Estonian word for "night cream." It refers to a skincare product designed for application before sleep. Night creams are typically formulated with richer ingredients and are intended to work with the skin's natural repair cycle during the night.

The purpose of öökreeme is to provide intensive hydration and nourishment to the skin while it rests. Ingredients commonly found in öökreeme include emollients, humectants, and occlusives, which help to lock in moisture and prevent water loss. Many formulations also contain active ingredients such as retinoids, peptides, antioxidants, and ceramides, which can address specific skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, dullness, or dryness.

Unlike day creams, öökreeme usually does not contain SPF protection, as sun exposure is not a factor during sleep. The thicker consistency of many night creams allows them to create a protective barrier on the skin, aiding in the absorption of beneficial ingredients. Regular use of öökreeme is believed to contribute to a smoother, plumper, and more revitalized complexion upon waking. The specific formulation of an öökreeme will vary depending on the brand and its intended target audience or skin type.
