With a promise that big, we'll give you the answer up front: night cream.
Slathering on a quality night cream before you go to sleep can lead to clearer, smoother, glowier skin. And all you have to do to make it happen is sleep — it doesn't get much easier than that.
So how do you find the right one, you ask? Start with these night cream reviews. Our readers have tried more than their fair share of face creams and reported back to us which picks are firming, anti-wrinkle and even acne-fighting — and we've also added in a few Total Beauty editor-approved picks. Now all you have to do is peruse our favorites and decide which of the many options you'll love.
A few things to keep in mind as you weigh your choices:
1. Pick a cream that works with your skin type. You want to add moisture while you sleep (it's the best time to do so since you can look greasy for a bit without being in public) but oily or combination skin needs less hydration than dry skin.
2. Focus on your biggest concerns. Whether it's acne, uneven skin tone, fine lines or wrinkles, there's a product for you. Just make sure you find the right one.
3. Give it some time. Most night creams are not going to miraculously transform your skin in one night — they take days and even weeks to show their full effects. So be patient and don't forget to apply the product every night.
4. Get enough sleep. If you're only in bed for three hours, that night cream isn't getting much time to work its magic. Aim for seven to eight hours of shut-eye; it's better for your health and gives your products ample time to sink in.
Now, without further ado, check out these reviews to find the best night cream for you.

The Olay Age-Defying and Body Shop Aloe both look like good affordable options to try.

I have dry and very sensitive skin, and not many skin creams work for me; Neutrogena's Continuous Hydration Ageless Essentials is a good match for my skin, but not for night use. I would need something much heavier to last the night. It is great for daytime, excellent under makeup, and seems to visibly smooth out my skin and leave it with a nice feel. The consistency is very light and almost has a "whipped" look to it, and the first time I slathered it on my face and neck it was absorbed in seconds. The second (or even third) coat seems to be necessary for me, in order to last through several hours of wear. It has a pleasant aroma, and I especially love it on my neck and upper chest area, which soaks it up like a sponge. Well worth having if you like to vary your face creams and try something new, but don't expect it to be a thick night cream. Light and lovely it is, for thirsty skin in a world where your skin, because of pollution, etc. needs constant tender loving care.

I can testify to that Olay firming cream. I've been using it for years and I love it! It's basic, but it works.

Go ahead and use these Night Creams, but make sure you sleep on a DreamSkin pillowcase, it's not a silk pillowcase or satin. It's the first fabric formulated for skin care that acts like a cosmetic moisturizer. This pillowcase will keep the cream and moisture in your skin all night long.
