Benefits for Dry and Sensitive Skin

A good night cream for sensitive skin should feel comforting without needing a complicated routine. Gentle Night is designed for skin that feels dry, tight, delicate or easily unsettled, especially when lighter moisturisers do not feel enough.

The rich base of organic shea butter and cocoa butter helps soften and condition dry skin, while evening primrose oil supports a smoother, more supple feel. Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, is included to support the look of calmer, more even skin tone.

Because the texture is very rich, it is best used in small amounts. This makes it a practical night moisturiser for dry skin when you want long-lasting comfort from just a little product.

How the Natural Ingredients Work

• Organic Shea Butter: an intensive moisturising butter, rich in vitamins A and E, that helps dry skin feel softer and more replenished. Our shea butter is fair trade and sourced from Ghana.
• Organic Cocoa Butter: cold-pressed from the cocoa bean to help retain its naturally rich fatty acid profile. It gives the cream its dense, buttery feel and helps condition dry skin.
• Organic Evening Primrose Oil: naturally rich in gamma-linolenic acid, also known as GLA. It helps nourish dry skin and support a more supple feel. You can also explore our pure Organic Evening Primrose Oil.
• Vitamin B3, Niacinamide: included to support skin comfort, tone and a smoother-looking complexion.
• Organic Comfrey Extract: naturally contains allantoin, valued in skincare for helping skin feel soft and cared for.
• Calendula Tincture: a traditional botanical extract used in skincare for delicate and dry-feeling skin.
• Organic Frankincense Essential Oil: gives a warm, resinous aroma and makes the cream feel especially comforting in an evening routine.
• Organic Sandalwood Essential Oil: adds a soft, woody scent that pairs beautifully with frankincense for a calm night-time ritual.

This natural night cream is built around rich plant butters and nourishing oils, with botanical extracts chosen for the comfort-led Gentle range. You can find the full ingredients list in the ingredients dropdown on this page.

How to Use Gentle Night Cream

• Use in the evening after cleansing and toning, if using toner.
• Warm a pea-sized amount between your fingertips.
• Press gently into the face, neck and décolletage.
• Use more only if needed; the texture is very rich.
• Blot away any excess with a clean tissue if your skin feels over-coated.

Our creams are designed to melt on contact with the warmth of your skin. In hot weather, the cream may soften or melt in the jar. If this happens, place it somewhere cool or in the fridge until it firms again. This does not affect the cream.

Use as Part of Your Gentle Evening Routine

For a simple dry and sensitive skin routine, cleanse first with a gentle face wash, apply toner if you use one, then finish with Gentle Night Cream. It can be used as the final step in your evening routine when your skin needs richer comfort overnight.

For daytime, pair it with our Gentle Day Face Cream for Dry Skin. You can also explore the full Gentle skincare range if you want a cleanser, toner and moisturiser routine designed for dry and sensitive skin.

Gentle Night Cream is available in a plastic-free 60ml full size and a 5ml sample size, so you can try it first. You can also save with the Gentle Day and Night Cream bundle.
