I used to be a loyal user of the Dove Essentials & Sensitive Essentials night creams, but of course they have long since been discontinued. :(
I've used Dove Energy Glow night cream, but it didn't seem to really do much. Nor did the Pro-Age one either.
I've been using Olay's Night of Olay's firming night cream for the last couple months. It does a great job, but I just cannot stand that sickening rose soap smell any longer.

If you use a night cream, please post what you use.
Thanks! :D

I'm using Burt's Bees Radiance Day Cream at the moment, which isn't a night cream per se, but there is a night time version of this also. While the texture is really fluffy and not greasy, it does have a rather strong smell that you might want to check out first before you buy it (Ylang-Ylang Essential Oil). I've gotten used to it, but in the beginning, it was a bit much. The cream itself makes my skin feel really soft and I think it is a bit brighter already (could be my imagination though).

I'm using Weleda's Almond Intensive Facial Cream for Sensitive Skin. I love it, and actually just bought the Wild Rose Intensive Eye Cream and Almond Cleansing Lotion last night. You can find these products at Target in the special skincare section near the makeup (where the Soap & Glory products are found). They are expensive ($19.99 to $24.99) but they are so worth it. They are fragrance-free and come in cute metal tubes that are very convenient and sanitary.

Olay's Total Effects Night Firming Cream :) Due to my combo/oily skin, it's always been kind of difficult to find something that is compatible with my skin --many night creams seem too heavy for me--, but this one is perfect, it's non-greasy, fast-absorbing and doesn't cause me breakouts, plus it makes my skin very smooth and even.

I use the Night of Olay cream also. I like it a lot. It moisturizes well and doesn't break me out. It's my fall/winter night moisturizer.

You use it too eh? Tell me, do you enjoy that rosy soapy smell?
I'm finding hard to get past it, even after 2 months. :confused:

I love using a rich moisturizer at night, so I use Pond's Dry Skin cream. It's amazing!

I saw some Dove Night Cream yesterday. Its in a dark blue box. Is this the one that is discontinued? Lots of Dove stuff is available here even though its discontinued in the US. Same thing when Olay discontinued their makeup.
Last light I tried my sample of Kiehls Creme D'elegance Repairatuer. My face is uber soft and the dryness is finally gone. I found my natural cleanser with the grapefruit seed extract really dried my face out. Out that is going!

I have oily skin though, so I wonder if the Pond's Dry Skin cream would be okay for me?
Also, what does it smell like?
The reviews on MUA are average, lots of positives though. Plus, I know this is super cheap!
:D

Right now, I use Yes to Carrots "C Today or C You in the Morning." (http://www.yes-to-carrots.com/face_prod_1.html) I got it in a gift set. It is for both night and day. I apply a little more at night than during the day. It doesn't make me greasy. It soaks in shortly after you apply it. It has a light, neutral smell, too.
They also have a night cream, but since I'm oily I went with the less heavy formula. I also use their under-eye cream. It will probably take me 2 years to use it all, so good thing I like it! ;) The third product in the gift set was their body butter, and it is AMAZING. It is so smooth and gives you an all-over glow and it doesn't make me break out (rare that a butter doesn't do that to my thighs). The set I found was only $19 for the three. Worth it!

If I need it, I'll use a moisturizer at night (but I wouldn't necessarily say I use night cream). Depending on how dry my skin is, I use either Alba Aloe and Green Tea Oil-Free Moisturizer or Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream.

If I use a moisturizer at night its usually MDF Antioxidant Lotion or Clinique TTA Cream. Something light/simple.

I actually don't mind the smell much, it's not too strong or overpowering.

I use the similar night Olay, but it's the antiwrinkle formula. Definitely has the similar scent you talk about. I like the product enough put up with the fragrance for now...but I likely will not repurchase solely on the fragrance.

All I've tried from Weleda so far is the toothpaste, but I love that they don't test on animals. What do you think of their other products? And do any of the products have a strong scent? Even some natural scents are icky to me.

Opps. My question ended up at the end of the post. Considering using more Weleda products because they don't test on animals. What do you think of them?

I really like them. They are gentle and are all fragrance-free, and I love that they come in sanitary metal tubes. They are worth the money IMO. I only use the cleanser before I go to the gym to wash my makeup off when I get home from work (because I don't want to bleach my gym clothes with my benzoyl peroxide cleanser), but it is a great cleanser.

I use GIGI's lotus night moisturizer every night before I go to bed. I also apply an eye gel and a serum underneath to get the maximum potential out of my skin :)
