Night cream hydrates your skin while you sleep. Make sure you choose the right sort of cream for your skin type for optimal results.
Darphin Hydraskin Night Relaxing Cream (HK$550/50ml)  
The smooth texture makes application easy and it is very nourishing.  Sandalwood and extract of chicory give a powerful soothing effect, calming stressed skin.  Its rich texture is only really suitable  for dry skin.  It's a bit pricey, too.

Two Girls Night Cream (HK$330/50ml)
This bottle has an innovative pump which means you don't have to dunk your fingers in and cross-contaminate the product. Not hugely moisturising but quickly absorbed, this is suited more to combination/oily skin, leaving you with smooth cheeks when you wake up. 
Tel: 2861 5808
Ettusais Emollient Supplizer (HK$220/29g)  
Although specially formulated for sensitive and acne-prone skin, this white cream is a bit oily and takes  quite a while time to be absorbed. The moisturising effect is  satisfactory but you may find a thin film of  grease remaining  in the morning. 
Tel: 2758 7181
Clinique Youth Surge Night (HK$550/50ml)  
No youth surging found here. The moisturiser is rich and satisfyingly soothing but some might find it a  bit too much.  
Tel: 2196 8480
Barbie Plastic Smooth Mantra Night Cream (HK$188/30g)  
The moisturising effect is average, but the yellow colour and the sticky texture  are scary. Also it smells, ironically, like plastic.
