Night-Time Layering Ritual: Hydrate, Nourish & Glow Without Harsh Chemicals

On-trend skincare doesn’t need to involve harsh chemicals, suffocating occlusives, or complex routines. Our Night-Time Layering Ritual combines the power of hydration, deep nourishment, and rejuvenating oils to help your skin repair and glow while you sleep. Say goodbye to dryness, dullness, and irritated skin – welcome plump, radiant, and healthy-looking skin every morning.

This ritual is perfect for all skin types, from sensitive to dehydrated, and is a gentle alternative to the viral “slugging” trend.


Step 1: Cleanse Your Skin

Before you start, make sure you’ve checked your true skin type so you can tailor your routine perfectly. Clean, fresh skin is the foundation of any effective night-time ritual. Use a gentle cleanser to remove makeup, dirt, and daily pollutants without stripping your skin’s natural oils. This ensures your serums and moisturisers absorb effectively.

Pro tip: Avoid hot water – it can dry out the skin further.

Step 2: Apply UR Concentrated Hyaluronic Serum

Many brands use only a small percentage of hyaluronic acid in formulas mostly made up of water or fillers. UR Concentrated Hyaluronic Serum is different — it contains a high concentration of multiple forms of hyaluronic acid, designed to deeply hydrate and plump your skin. This ensures maximum effectiveness and long-lasting results compared to diluted alternatives.

Key Benefits:

High Concentration: Packed with a potent blend of hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate and plump the skin.

Multi-Molecular Weight: Utilises various molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to ensure hydration at multiple skin layers.

Lightweight & Fast-Absorbing: Absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue, making it suitable for all skin types.

Hyaluronic acid is renowned for its ability to retain up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it an exceptional humectant that draws moisture into the skin and helps maintain hydration levels.

This serum is the perfect base to maximise the benefits of the layers that follow.

Step 3: Apply UltraDerm Night Cream

Next, lock in hydration and support your skin’s overnight repair with UltraDerm Night Cream.
