Instead, as I had been finding the Mukti Balancing cream too light for night use, I replaced it instead with the C Today or C You in the Morning day cream. I figured that since there was no SPF in the cream, it would work for night use.

And I’m happy to report that I was right. Incidentally there is a National Carrot Day (Feb 3) in the USA – kid you not! So there are some carrot trivia below you can regale your friends with hehe…
