We all know the difference a good night's sleep can make to our minds and bodies, but what about those pesky wrinkles, uneven skin tone and under-eye circles of the face?

While the jury is out on whether the skin's renewal process is more active at night, there are circadian rhythms that affect sebum excretion, water loss and acidity levels while we sleep.

Skin also tends to be drier and more vulnerable to irritation at night, making it a perfect time to turn to a richer and more soothing treatment.

It's also the best time to apply heavy-duty ingredients such as retinols, which can cause damage when exposed to UV rays.

Whether you choose a powerful anti-ageing cream or thicker moisturiser, these six new solutions provide a bit of pampering for party-weary faces.

Annick Goutal Creme Splendide Nuit harnesses the power of active rose serum as well as mimosa tenuiflora and blackcurrant bud to repair and regenerate the skin.
