Pregnancy-Safe Night Moisturisers That Actually Soothe

Night-time is when you can replenish everything daytime stress stripped away. You do not need heavy fragrances or retinoids to get the job done—just calming ceramides, amino acids, and occlusives that passed a MamaSkin scan.

How to build a night routine

  1. Gentle cleanse to remove SPF and pollution.
  2. Hydrating mist or serum (hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, or peptides).
  3. Barrier-loving moisturiser that seals in the goodness while you sleep.
  4. Silk pillowcase + clean bedding, because bacteria loves dirty fabrics.

Night moisturisers we rate

  1. Glow Recipe Plum Plump Hyaluronic Cream – whipped, refillable, and loaded with polyglutamic acid plus hyaluronic acid for lasting bounce.
  2. Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask – use as an overnight mask when your skin feels parched, or as a thick moisturiser on long flights.
  3. The INKEY List Omega Water Cream – water-light but surprisingly nourishing thanks to omega fatty acids and glycerin, perfect if you dislike heavy textures.

Massage any of these into damp skin, then spend two minutes doing light facial massage to ease swelling. You can even take it down your neck and chest if those areas feel itchy.

Bonus bedtime boosters

  • Add a humidifier or place a glass of water by the radiator to add humidity.
  • Sip a caffeine-free tea and practise deep belly breathing to calm cortisol.
  • Keep a notebook by your bed to brain-dump worries that would otherwise keep you awake.
