Lloydspharmacy YOUR Organics Anti-Ageing Night Cream 2 in 1

RRP: £4.99 for 50ml

--What does the promo say?--
"Combining Vitamin E to help fight the signs of ageing with a night cream, YOUR Organics Anti-Ageing Night Cream 2 in 1 moisturises you while you sleep to help decrease skin roughness and reduce the look of facial lines and wrinkles."

--Packaging--
Clearly in keeping with all the others in the range in terms of the colour scheme, but I reckon this has the best packaging of the lot - loving the Nuxe-style pot. While perhaps not the most practical of things, it is certainly the king of the crop.

--Application--
Massage liberally into face and neck every night after cleansing and toning.

--Scent--
While certainly a calm scent, you do get a whiff of the pomegranate in there, as is common across most of the range.

--Appearance--
A thick, creamy, pale yellow substance. Just gorgeous. On the face there is no visible residue after use.

--Texture/consistency--
Not greasy, and very smooth with no lumps. It is thick and indulgent, but massages into the skin easily.

--Long-term effects--
It's difficult to tell how it feels on the skin since you're sleeping while it works. With continued use, skin feels healthy, and as an acne sufferer who had never previously used a night cream because of this, I am a complete convert. My skin seems calmer (though not perfect yet!) and it seems that it's definitely a myth about night creams only being for drier or older skins.

--Value for money--
This, to my mind, is a brilliant night cream that helps to calm troubled skin. Used in conjunction with the equally laudable Eye and Lip Lift, I reckon Lloyds are onto a winner with this.
