| So far Juvedical Renewing Night Cream is the #1 on my list. It's the only one gives me a glow in the morning. |

I alternate between using a beta-hydroxy cream - Olay Age Defying, and just pure grapeseed oil (great anti-oxidant properties) at night. I too have combo skin and find that this results in smoothness, small pores, even toned skin, and that my skin is less oily as well!  |

Hello gracedhy
Grapeseed oil is a carrier oil, and the brand is Carapelli. I bought this at Loblaws grocery store in the "oils" aisle (yes - I'm serious), at about $7.00(Can.) for 750ml. (Best to take some in a small bottle for use, and store the big bottle in the fridge for up to one year, as this is a delicate oil. You can use it for salads and frying then as well  ).
Just apply it sparingly on your face (and neck if you choose, although tie back your hair) , as a little oil goes a long way. I also use this as an all over oil, as it moisturizes well, is great as an anti-oxidant treatment, and absorbs better than many other oils. |

I used Cellcosmet Ultra Vital and Valmont AWF Cyto Complex EJ-D - Factor III but they did not give me a glow as Juvedical did. |

I use Cellcosmet and found it to be perfect for my skin, I just need to be sure that I exfoliate on regular basis so I cannot get any build up from the moisterizer.
Occasionally, I use Valmont renewing pack that gives a nice glow but you should not use it on daily basis.
If you want that extra shine(glow) I would suggest Sonya Dakar Omega 3 oil and it will not clog your pores. I found that it brighten my skin, made my skin look firmer and yes if you apple a one full pump on your face and neck it looks a bit greasy from some people point of view. I've only used half a pump. I no longer purchase Omega 3 because Sonya Dakar does not ship to Canada and Shop the States is out of business. |

one of my favourites is nature by valmont's night cream, it's not too thick and melts into my skin
it does a great job keeping my skin soft and hydrated
one other night cream which made my skin radiant is helena rubenstein's force c night cream..i really notice the difference in the morning! |

| I have tried Valmont's Regenera a couple years ago and find it a little too rich for my skin and I have combination skin and hormanal acne along my jawline plus I tend to flake when seasons change. IMO, I think at 32 Gracedhy you might be too young to try even Regenera I but presently I am using Regenetic and I find it quite pleasant, it is rich but not greasy and absorbs quickly by the skin, it lessens fine lines and hydrates my skin so maybe you can ask for samples from EDS and try it before you splurge? I also tried Radiance and like it too but if I remember correctly Radiance is really for daytime. |

hi milodomi, i heard the force c mask from helena rubenstein is great too, it is like a wake up mask, somehow similar to renewing pack! but i have never given it a try. |

I have a sample of 24 but have not tried it as of yet. I don't know if it could clog my pores and I have not seen anyone rave about it. I might use mine as a foot cream!  |

| I would recommend a beta or alpha-hydroxy oil-free lotion to help remove dead skin cells and dissolve excess sebum. I alternate my retin-a with Age-Limit Refinishing serum each night. It is formulated for sensitive skin, is oil-free and has a 10% glycolic/lactic acid mix. Another I have used is the Neutrogena Rapid Clear Acne Defense Lotion (2% Salicylic acid)which seems to work well over a series of days. You would have to decide if you think you need to remove dead old skin (Age Limit) or remove excess sebum from pores (Neutrogena) to achieve the result you want. |

| My favourite is Decleor's aromessence night balm even though they say ylang ylang is for combination skin. |

The best night cream for me isn't really a cream, but a balm - Decleor's Ylang ylang. I alternate this with an AHA cream (Dr Renaud's Hydrafine).
I'm now experimenting with Olay Total Effects for Blemish Prone Skin. It seems to be giving good results so far - I wake up to smooth, clear, glowing skin. Being young if you don't want to splash out on pricy anti-aging creams this shoud suffice, I would think.
HTH!  |

| Jansen & Beckett’s Alpha Lipoic, Vitamin C Ester, DMAE Night Cream penetrates easily and is moisturizing without being oily plus a great combination of ingredients |

| I second the janson becket night cream. I disliked it at first, it clogged the pores on my oily face, but I still use it on my decollete area and I am liking the way it keeps it moisturized throughout the day, and night. I use it both. I also like the way my skin tone on my chest is looking. I have used it since we got the first offer and still have some left. |
