Question 1

is it better to use cream at night than in the morning?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Creams are more effective when applied at night because you have 8 hours for it to sit and penetrate. The skin becomes much drier during the winter and need to apply cream all over. Get even better penetration by wearing gloves and socks over heavy creams on the hands and feet.

Question 2

should i put on wrinkle preventing cream on my face in the morning or night?

Accepted Answer

It depends: Some wrinkle reducing creams such as Retin-A are better if used at night since they make your skin sensative to the sun. Other creams that contain alphahydroxy acids such as glycolic acid can be used in the morning or at night or even twice a day.

Question 3

can i use a cream with salicylic acid in the morning and a cleanser with salicylic acid at night?  would it be too much for my skin?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Most of these are low percentage products that have minimal direct effect.At most you would expect some drying. With these or any other skin product you test them over time.If you are excessively or reddened you cut back on the duration or frequency you apply them.If regularly scheduled applications have no side effects, this can be a good basic skin plan.

Question 4

what are you suppose to do with the monistat cream in the morning after you had it inside your vagina the night before?

Accepted Answer

That's confusing: If you're referring to the cream already inside your vagina then you would just leave it there so it can be absorbed. If you're referring to the Monistat container then you will simply use more of it the following night.
