I think it depends on one's skin. On some nights, I can do with just a serum, and some nights I use just oils but other nights, I need a lot more.

May be as one grows old, to prevent dryness, one should apply a film of moisture but nothing which actually an intensive night treatment. That's probably a waste of money according to me but everyone to their needs. In summers, of course, I can't really out anything on my skin. Its so hot that I feel skin is getting stifled.

First I wasn't sure about the whole skipping the night creams thing but I did give it a go. I have a combination skin and haven't used a night cream for 4 months now and to be honest I love it. My skin has never looked better, my blackheads have reduced by 95%!!! My skin feel fantastic in the mornings. Dr Hauschka suggests to use a facial cleanser that won't strip off your beneficial skin oils, if your skin feels tight after cleansing you are using the wrong cleanser! For the first week after switching to Dr Hauschka my skin felt very tight at night and thats because I have been using very harsh products before. After about a week my skin has adjusted it self and now feels wonderful! I am 29 years old and my skin has never looked better. My T-zone is not as shiny during the day and seriously my blackheads are barely visible now. I understand that some of you don't want to spend so much on Dr Hauschka products but there are a lot of pure organic creams out there that you can substitute. I use a very gentle cleanser now from the Dead sea spa range but I kept the Dr Hauschka toner as I found it fab fab fab for my combination skin (its the claryfing toner) and as to my day cream I use the Balancing Day cream from Jurlique and I like it. I also will not use anything on my bode that its not 100% organic, I find that it makes a very big difference. I have been using Dr Hauschka products for 4 months now.

So, yes, your skin can regenerate itself if you are in a clean environment, but with modern urban pollution and central heating, it needs protection at night. <font color="#990033"><strong>RRobin</strong>: Yes, agree that we need protection at night.</font> I tried using the Hauschka producs and eschewing night cream and have decided that the philosophy is a product of its time — 50 years ago in rural Germany.
