This = night cream, yet description says includes an SPF factor -- is this accurate? And WHY would a night cream include sun protection? EDIT late on Feb. 16: hmmm.... getting contradictory messages in these answers. Some say yes it does have an SPF...

I believe the spf component is absorbed along with the firming moisturizer to help those of us who don't always remember to wear sunblock every day. Also consider that a lot of these proprietary ingredients are mixed together before they are added to any specific cream, night or otherwise.

Hi Nicole,No it does not contain any sun protection. I like to use a specific SPF sun screen.Ian

The label on the hat indicated so, but not sure how to verify. I did wear a sun hat that wasn't labeled spf protected and can tell you this one is cooler on my headvand face.

This one specifically doesn't, but in it's label says: "for daytime sun exposure, use Avalon Organics Vitamin C Renewal Moisture Plus SPF 15"... maybe Amazon sells that one too :)

I'm not a chemist or dermatologist, but checked the ingredients on my tube which calls it a sunscreen and it seems to be a sunscreen. I think Neutrogena also makes a "dry-touch" sunblock.

There is no spf in it. I also wondered if it was just for tanning beds, which I no longer use. I used it for outside tanning and it did not work for me.

Hi MP. No, Australian Gold Cheeky Brown does not contain a SPF. So if you choose to you it, keep that in mind!

I'm 28 and I use it, and love it. My mom started me on the day cream and I didn't know it was meant for 'mature' skin -- but I've tried other variations of Avon creams that are more 'age appropriate' and I just find that they're not as effective. I still have acne and neither the day nor night cream makes me break out. Night cream is more moisturizing so I wear it during the day in the winter sometimes. Skin always feels baby soft after using.

This product has SPF4. Low SPF but I tan easily so works for my skin. If you burn easily, avoid prolonged exposure with this product only.

It would be good to use this in the morning, and maybe something else at night.SPF lotions require that you rub them in, otherwise they leave white residue. So, that could perhaps cause irritation though I don't hear anyone complain about that.If you aren't going to be in the sun for more than 10 minutes you probably don't need SPF, unless you are using AHA (Glycolic Acid) or Benzoyl Peroxide on your face--they increase your sensitivity to UV light.

I have used it overnight but they make a nighttime version without the SPF that is wonderful !

I use the coconut as a night time moisturizer. Eminence has a couple day creams that have SPF in them

No, it is for all skin types. The reason it saids sensitive night cream is because it doesn't have the full amt. of retinol in it so this way your skin doesn't burn or turn red. I have been very pleased with this cream. Its a thumbs up for me.

I really don't know. I only have the day cream. I know they offer the night cream. Truthfully, I use it day and night

I didn't notice one on the original box and I don't see one on the tube. I suspect there isn't one as it is not based on a chemical formulation --- it's a mineral. There are probably chemicals in it to keep it from clumping and to give it the SPF factor.

There is nothing on the box suggesting it is SPF. I do not like the SPF formulas!!! Aloe and chamomile are listed in one spot. This formula feels nice on my skin. It has no coloring and no scent. It is NOT greasy. I highly recommend this formula!!! I have used a tiny drop daily for over 35 years.

This doesn't seem rich enough to be a good night cream to me. It is a better daily moisturizer. So, I would buy an additional product for night time use.
