Night cream that's not in a jar!

here's a challenge...
I have an aversion to night creams that are sold in heavy glass jars and much prefer tubes or lighter weight packaging.
Can anyone recommend a good night cream that isn't in a pot or a jar??? I've looked everywhere and not had much luck apart from using samples from Clarins where you get their lovely night cream in a tube, albeit a tiny one!

Can't really answer your question, but I also prefer my face creams to come in tubes. I use the same cream (Avene) night and day - it comes in a tube.

I am using Ren Frankinsense night cream that is lush. It comes in lightweight plastic packaging - more of a pump than a tube. Def not a pot/jar though.

I share your aversion- can't stand dipping fingers in to get a bit of them; more so with eye creanms that need a small amount and come in tiny jars ..

strixaderm which I use is in a tube and you only need a tiny amount so despite the price it lasts ages. Afaik though only available at Fenwicks

What about Dermalogica here? I use the Intensive Moisture Balance (tube), which I luuuurrve - although it doesof course depend on your skin type.

Another vote for Ren Frankincense, lush indeed.

REN skincare- all in plastic bottles with a pump action- their frankinsence night cream is fab.

A good reason not use pots/jars is that the stuff starts to go rancid the moment it's in contact with air, which is, er...every time it's used. Not mention fingers and hands in the stuff.
