Night Skincare Winners at the Global Green Beauty Awards 2026

There’s something satisfying about finding a night product you want to keep using. Perhaps it’s a balm that leaves dry skin feeling comfortable, or a cream that brings a treatment ingredient into your usual evening routine.

This year’s Global Green Beauty Awards recognised several products made for that last skincare step of the day. Here are four winners worth getting to know, and the details that make each interesting.

Cactus Skincare: Regenerative Night Serum

Cactus Skincare’s Regenerative Night Serum received Bronze in the Best Organic Night Cream category.

There’s quite a lot in this formula. Bakuchiol sits alongside hyaluronic acid, cactus extract, ectoin and pro-vitamin B5, bringing together ingredients chosen for smoother-looking skin and moisture support.

That balance is a useful part of its appeal. A treatment aimed at fine lines still needs to leave skin feeling comfortable, and hydration is a clear focus here. Cactus also includes jojoba oil and shea butter in the formula.

Although recognised in the night cream category, it’s used as a serum. The brand recommends one or two drops after cleansing, followed by moisturiser.

Marigold Charms: Balancing Night Repair Balm

Gold for Best Organic Night Cream went to Marigold Charms’ Balancing Night Repair Balm.

This is one for people who enjoy the feel of a nourishing balm. Rosehip, jojoba and hemp seed oils combine with shea butter, while bakuchiol and coenzyme Q10 feature in a formula developed with mature skin in mind.

The oils and butter give it its richness, helping soften skin and making it particularly interesting if your face feels dry by the end of the day. The brand also targets the appearance of uneven tone and fine lines. You only need a pea-sized amount for the face and neck.

There’s a thoughtful packaging detail too. Marigold Charms offers a scheme where customers return their empty jar to be cleaned, refilled and sent back.

Sknfed: Organic Youth Boost Night Cream with Retinal

Sknfed’s Organic Youth Boost Night Cream with Retinal received Bronze for Best Vegan Anti-Ageing Night Treatment.

Retinal is the ingredient to notice here. This form of vitamin A is used to help improve the appearance of skin texture, uneven tone and fine lines. Sknfed pairs it with hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, alongside shea butter, rosehip oil and other botanical ingredients.

The combination gives the cream a moisturising role as well as a treatment focus. For someone who prefers using a night cream to adding another separate serum, that’s a practical detail.

Sknfed describes the texture as lightweight and comforting. It goes on after cleansing and, if you use one, after your serum. Follow the brand’s directions when introducing it, especially if retinal is new to your routine.

GOD DAG LAB: SKIN TURNER Retinol Night Mask

GOD DAG LAB’s SKIN TURNER Age-rewind 360 Retinol Night Mask took Gold for Best Vegan Anti-Ageing Night Treatment.

This winner takes a different format: a sheet mask for an evening treatment. Its formula combines liposomal retinol with vitamins B3 and B5, plus mulberry and reishi mushroom extracts, with a focus on hydration and the appearance of uneven tone and fine lines.

One detail worth knowing before you open the sachet: “night mask” doesn’t mean leaving it on while you sleep. GOD DAG LAB recommends 15 to 20 minutes, followed by removing the mask and wiping away the remaining product with damp cotton.

It’s a treatment to plan into your routine rather than automatically layer over another retinol or retinal product. Check the brand’s suitability guidance too; it advises against use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Congratulations to Cactus Skincare, Marigold Charms, Sknfed and GOD DAG LAB on their Global Green Beauty Awards 2026 wins.
