Ive used Decleor for years so always put on the night bslm.
However am transferring to LE which is straightfrward hot cloth cleanse, toner and moisturise.
So i was wondering if im supposed to moisturise at night or use something else

Yes. Why do you think there is such a huge market for night cream? I always moisturise my face after cleansing it. My skin feels tight if I don't.

Yes but theyre specialist night creams. Can you just use your usual moisturser

yes you can use any moisturiser at night, but you should use something richer/oilier than normal as you're not wearing make up and it's the best time for your skin to suck it up - otherwise just your usual cream with a bit of extra oil mixed in? anything, even sweet almond would help

With the LE, if you have dry skin I would use the Superskin moisturiser at night, but you can use the normal one instead - it hasn't got an SPF in it so can use for day or night. They do a nice concentrate too, but if you haven't got dry skin then you probably don't need to bother

I use the same moisturisers morning and night - Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel and Clinique Moisture Surge.

I use the Liz Earle superskin concentrate at night. Smells gorgeous and makes my skin feel lovely. My skin is nit dry, more combination and a bit prone to spots but the oil doesn't make my skiing greasy at all.

I have stopped using a night cream and my skin is SO much better for it!

I use the Sanctuary Facial Oil on top of my normal moisturiser each night and it's a god send. Otherwise I'd look even greyer than I do at the moment (8 month old DS) Grin
