Affordable Night Creams We Love For Mature Skin
All Bright Hydrating Night Cream Moisturiser With Natural AHAs, £4.66 (was £6.99) | Botanics
Best For: Fast Results
This small but mighty cream is backed by some impressive results. Up to 92% of testers said it instantly moisturises skin for a softer feel and smoother appearance. With exfoliating AHAs, it boosts cell turnover and rids any unwanted dullness on the surface of the skin while plant-based hydrators deliver long-lasting hydration. Over time, it works to minimise dullness and smooth uneven texture. We love the calming, lavender scent that provides some on-the-spot calm. Add in recyclable packaging and vegan-friendly ingredients, and you have a £4.66 cream that ticks every box.

Revitalift Volume Filler Night Cream, £13.31 (was £19.99) | L’Oréal Paris
Best For: Boosting Firmness
If you prefer your cream on the lighter side, you’ll love this one from L’Oréal Paris. A gel texture, it absorbs fast while hyaluronic acid plumps skin up as you sleep. After just a few uses you’ll see a real difference in your skin, notably that it looks suppler and feels softer. It’s ideal for those wanting to zap any dryness, but also anyone seeking a tauter feel – even if the results of this are only temporary. We love how smooth skin feels the morning after application – make-up glides on easily and skin looks that bit brighter.

Ceramide Night Treatment, £14.99 | The Inkey List
Best For: Instant Hydration
Ceramides are one of the most important ingredients for overcoming lost collagen, hydration and smoothing the appearance of fine lines. That’s exactly why high-street brand The Inkey List has included it in this overnight treatment – put it on in the evening and wake up to smoother, healthier-looking skin. Dubbed a ‘pot of calm for your complexion’, it is ideal for those prone to inflammation, or anyone wanting to hit reset.

Rich Revitalising Nourishing Night Cream, £19.75 | Avène
Best For: Soothing Sensitivities
French pharmacy brand Avène is great for on-the-spot nourishment – and this rich cream is no exception. Loaded with thermal spring water, it’s a drink for dry, mature complexions, while vitamin E boosts cell turnover for a brighter complexion over time. The best bit? The lightweight formula is gentle and means no stickiness or residue come morning, so you can wear make-up on top without any movement or sticky feel.

HydraLuminous Overnight Recovery Cream, £14.95 | No7
Best For: Combination Skin
Created with all skin types in mind – but particularly those prone to issues of oiliness and uneven texture – this affordable cream is so quenching. Like others on the list, it’s a gel, so it supplies skin with a light layer of hydration as you sleep. When you apply it, you’ll find it melts in at speed with a weightless texture that’s hard to beat. Ingredients like glycerine nourish skin deeply while vitamin E helps to strengthen skin’s cells for a smoother appearance. Immediately it helps to refresh and soothe while minimising any dryness and feelings of tightness within your skin.

Nordic Hydra Hydration Recharge Overnight Cream, £19.90 | Lumene
Best For: Boosting Glow
Nordic brand Lumene is known for the glow-giving benefits of its skincare. We love this rich overnight cream that uses Arctic spring water, Nordic birch sap and shea butter to provide overnight hydration for even the driest of complexions, locking in moisture for unbeatable radiance come morning.

Regenerist Retinol 24 Night Moisturiser, £19 (was £38) | Olay
Best For: Anti-Ageing
Proven to firm skin with regular use, this one’s won countless awards. That’s all thanks to anti-ageing ingredients like retinol, niacinamide and peptides, which work in tandem to enhance brightness and give skin a lifted look, as well as a softer feel. Though it contains retinol – which can be drying – it’s cushioned by other hydrating ingredients for well-rounded results. You’ll likely see the best results the more you use it, but even after night one you should see your skin has a better bounce and freshness to it. We love that it contains so many anti-ageing hitters in one, meaning you don’t have to double up with serums or other products.

ProVitamin Overnight Cream, £8 | Your Good Skin
Best For: A Luxe Feel
This anti-ageing overnight cream earns consistently strong reviews for a reason. Packed with vitamins C, E and B5, it deeply hydrates skin while you sleep, working to plump and firm your complexion over time. We love its decadent, creamy texture, which completely belies its affordable price tag. It’s a lesser-known brand, but one worth having on your radar for the impressive and non-aggravating results it yields.
