- “Melatonin in the skin stimulates your body’s natural production of antioxidant enzymes at night,” Collyer says. “The better and deeper sleep you get, the more production of melatonin may be produced, leading to more antioxidants in the skin. These antioxidants help protect the skin from pollutants, protect collagen and help counteract harmful UV rays, which are a large cause of dark spots and wrinkles. There is evidence that using melatonin in skin care products can increase antioxidant properties in the skin.”
FAQ
Does melatonin work as a sleep aid right away?
YES, when delivered through the skin with our Certified Liposomal Delivery Technology (LDT), our Liposomal Melatonin Cream can help you fall asleep within 5-15 minutes of application.
What if I’m not falling asleep quick enough?
If you’re not falling asleep quick enough keep using the Melatonin Cream every evening for at least week. No skipping a night! Some individuals require more time for their body to feel the effects while others feel it immediately on night one. We recommend (1-2) pumps but if you’re not asleep within 20 minutes after applying your first application, you may apply (1) extra pump.
What if I wake up in the middle of the night, do I rub on more Melatonin Cream?
NO do not apply more cream. If you wake up in the middle of the night, avoid turning on lights, tv, tablet or looking at your cell phone. Light will signal your Pineal Gland that it’s daytime and kick “Serotonin” into production which will wake you up! To fall back to sleep, wet your hands with a little bit of water and rub over the original Melatonin Cream application area. Please DO NOT APPLY MORE Cream! Simply rub over the application area with damp hands and it will reactive the Melatonin that’s still stored on your skin.
I notice a slight smell to the Melatonin Cream. Is that natural?
The natural smell you’re noticing in the Melatonin Night Cream is the natural smell of the pure bio-active ingredients. We choose not to mask our ingredients and instead formulate our creams as pure as possible to avoid any allergies or our customers may have.

How much cream do I apply?

Apply the recommended (1-2) pump instructions per the How To Apply and When To Apply details below on this product page and/or under the Product Tips & Application Tab in the drop down main menu.
Can I layer other creams over this cream?
Our creams can be applied to the body at the same time on different skin areas OR mix (1-2) creams in the palm of your hand and then apply to skin area. Avoid layering creams with non-Nutra Relief creams as other creams are made with toxic chemicals which could cause irritation.
How long do I rub the cream on for?
Gently massage Nutra Relief creams on skin for 30 seconds longer than a normal cream application until fully absorbed. The massaging acts as a mechanism for the cream to fully penetrate the skin.
What if I have sensitive skin?
If you have sensitive skin the best place to apply the cream may be on the soles of your feet. These pores are 30% larger than any other location on your body which makes for an excellent absorption and application area.
Where on my body do I apply the cream?
Our liposomal creams will go thru the skin into the circulatory system no matter where on the body you apply them. Review the “Recommended Application Body Chart” for skin area options. Multiple creams can be applied to the body at the same time, however, apply them on different skin areas to avoid saturation.
