Dermalogica PowerBright Overnight Cream 50ml

Night cream against pigmentation spots with hexylresorcinol and vitamin C

At night, the skin switches to repair mode. Cell renewal peaks, blood circulation increases, and skin cells are more receptive to active ingredients than at any other time of day. For those working on pigmentation spots, the evening routine is therefore just as important as morning care—perhaps even more so.

The PowerBright Overnight Cream is a nourishing night cream that optimally supports the skin’s natural repair processes. The combination of niacinamide, hexylresorcinol, and stable vitamin C works during sleep to visibly fade pigmentation spots. Pumpkin enzyme evens skin texture, while nourishing cranberry and raspberry seed oils restore a soft, radiant complexion. In the morning, the skin wakes up hydrated, smoother, and brighter.

Advantages

• Fades pigmentation spots overnight with hexylresorcinol and vitamin C
• Evens skin texture with the enzymatic action of pumpkin ferment
• Restores the skin’s natural radiance and luminosity
• Richly nourishes with cranberry and raspberry seed oils without feeling heavy
• Reduces the appearance of fine lines through long-lasting hydration

Active ingredients

Hexylresorcinol: The brightening ingredient that inhibits excessive melanin production and fades existing pigmentation spots. Hexylresorcinol works optimally at night because the skin is more receptive to active ingredients and repair processes are at their peak during this phase.

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (stable vitamin C): A water-soluble and well-tolerated form of vitamin C that slows melanin production and provides antioxidants to the skin overnight. Stable vitamin C is more suitable for sensitive evening routines than the more irritating ascorbic acid variants.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3): Reduces the transfer of melanin pigment to the upper skin cells while simultaneously strengthening the skin barrier. An essential active in pigmentation care because it works on both fading and prevention.

Pumpkin Ferment (Lactobacillus/Pumpkin Ferment Extract): A mild enzymatic ingredient that evens skin texture overnight by dissolving dead skin cells without mechanical exfoliation. This makes the skin smoother and allows other actives to penetrate deeper.

Cranberry and raspberry seed oil: Two cold-pressed oils rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. They deeply nourish the skin, protect against oxidative damage from free radicals, and help reduce the visibility of fine lines.

Lactobacillus Ferment & licorice root: A probiotic ferment and the soothing dipotassium glycyrrhizate together support the skin barrier and reduce mild redness. Important for long-term use of brightening actives that might otherwise irritate sensitive skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I combine the PowerBright Overnight Cream with retinol?

Yes, retinol and this night cream are a logical combination. Apply the retinol serum first on cleansed skin, let it absorb for one to two minutes, then use the Overnight Cream as the final step. The nourishing texture of the cream helps support the skin barrier during retinol use.

Can I apply a face oil over this night cream?

A face oil can be used, provided the instructions explicitly state it as the last step. In that case, apply the Overnight Cream first and finish with a few drops of face oil. If your oil has no specific instructions, use the Overnight Cream as the final step.

How many weeks should I use this night cream for visible results?

The first improvements in skin texture and hydration are noticeable after one to two weeks. For visible fading of pigmentation spots, a usage period of at least 4 to 8 weeks is recommended, as pigmentation is addressed layer by layer. One tube contains approximately 78 applications, enough for over 2.5 months of daily use.
