For anyone who has been lurking on the skincare side of social media, Made of More is quietly becoming the brand dermatologists name-drop when asked about barrier care and sensorial formulas. If the name has slipped through your algorithm think of it as the overachiever that marries clinical science with a touch of calm luxury.
Their latest launch, Resilience Night Soufflé, sounds more like a decadent dessert than a treatment that works while you sleep, but the brand promises a rich breathable skin-reset cream that plays Mr Dependable for faces running on four hours of broken sleep. They credit the proprietary HC+ Complex with 150 mg of CBG, lactic acid, peptides and a bouquet of antioxidants that are meant to brighten, firm and depuff before the alarm goes off.
I committed to a full two-week trial, trading my usual rotation of overnight treatments for this single promise-filled formula to see if the morning mirror would back up the marketing and if the price tag earned its keep.

What Is Resilience Night Soufflé?
Resilience Night Soufflé is classified as an overnight treatment, the type of product designed to sit on skin for several uninterrupted hours while you sleep. Unlike a quick rinse off mask or a daytime moisturiser that battles UV and pollution, an overnight treatment works with the body’s natural nighttime repair cycle when cell turnover peaks and trans-epidermal water loss rises. The goal is simple: provide a nurturing environment so skin can focus on recovery rather than defence.
This particular formula is billed as a rich yet breathable cream that aims to counter the visible fallout of short sleep, stress and general life overload. The brand cites its HC+ Complex which folds in 150 mg of cannabigerol for calming benefits, lactic acid for gentle exfoliation, collagen-supporting peptides for firmness and a blend of antioxidants to curb free-radical damage. In theory that makes it a multitasker that hydrates, promotes barrier resilience, encourages brighter tone and helps soften the look of fine lines all in one step.
Made of More positions it as the sole leave-on product after cleansing in the evening, encouraging users to massage it in with upward strokes across face and neck. The promise is that consistent nightly use should result in a morning complexion that appears more rested and even toned without added layers or a complicated routine.
Did It Work?
In the name of science I benched my usual overnight treatment for three evenings before starting Resilience Night Soufflé, a level of rigor that would make my high school lab teacher proud. Fourteen consecutive nights felt like a fair window to judge any real skin shift so I stuck to a cleanse-then-Soufflé routine and nothing else.
Nights one to three were all about texture and absorption. The cream melted in faster than I expected for something marketed as “rich” and left a soft satin finish that never glued my face to the pillow. By morning I noticed the familiar post-treatment glow I usually get from lactic acid formulas: a touch more luminosity around my cheekbones and zero tightness around the mouth. So far so good.
Midweek I started paying attention to the stress markers the brand calls out—puffiness and that dull, grey cast that shows up after back-to-back deadlines. I still looked like someone who scrolls their phone at 1 a.m. but my under-eye bags were flatter and the general tone was brighter. I even skipped concealer one sleepy Monday because the redness had dialed down enough to pass without it.
By day ten the hydration story held steady. My combination skin usually rebels with clogged pores when a formula leans too occlusive yet I made it through without congestion or surprise breakouts. Fine lines at the corners of my eyes looked marginally softened, although not so much that friends commented. The mild exfoliation never tipped into irritation either, a win given my sensitivity to stronger acids.
When the two weeks wrapped I compared selfies and the changes were noticeable but subtle: smoother texture, consistent plushness and a fresher overall tone. Did I wake up looking like I had eight hours? Close on the good nights, not so convincing after a long Netflix marathon. The cream delivered on comfort and overnight replenishment yet stopped short of transforming my skin in a way that would make me ditch my current lineup.
Bottom line, Resilience Night Soufflé mostly makes good on its promises of hydration brightening and mild firming. For the price point I wanted a bit more visible wow so I will not be adding it to my permanent stash, but I would happily finish the jar and recommend it to anyone who values a reliable single-step night cream that feels like a mini facial while you sleep.
RESILIENCE Night Soufflé’s Main Ingredients Explained
The headline act is the trademarked HC+ Complex which pairs 150 mg of CBG with lactic acid. Cannabigerol is touted for its calming properties and early studies suggest it may help temper redness. Lactic acid, an AHA naturally found in the skin’s own moisturising factors, works at a gentle pH to nudge dull surface cells off without the sting that often comes with glycolic acid. This duo pulls off a neat trick: soothe on contact while gradually revealing a fresher surface underneath.
Next up are two signal peptides, Palmitoyl Dipeptide-5 Diaminohydroxybutyrate and its sister Diaminobutyroyl Hydroxythreonine, included to encourage collagen scaffolding. Peptides will not replace a retinoid for wrinkle depth but they can help skin look a touch firmer and more elastic with steady use, something I noticed around my smile lines by week two.
On the lipid side you get shea butter, jojoba esters and cannabis sativa seed oil which mimic the skin’s own sebum and plug gaps in a stressed barrier. Shea butter sits around a 0-2 on the comedogenic scale so if you are extremely prone to clogged pores (comedones are those little bumps that can turn into breakouts) patch test first. The formula offsets any heaviness with coco-caprylate and sunflower seed wax so it feels plush rather than greasy.
Antioxidant support comes from Terminalia Ferdinandiana (Kakadu plum) for a vitamin C boost plus rosemary leaf extract and mushroom filtrates that mop up the day’s free-radical fallout. Glycerin, tamarind seed polysaccharide and polyglycerin-3 keep water locked in overnight while the glucosides and saccharomyces ferment add a postbiotic angle for microbial balance.
Free from animal-derived ingredients and scented only by the raw materials, Resilience Night Soufflé is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. It is also devoid of parabens and silicones for those who scan labels for potential triggers. As for pregnancy safety the inclusion of an AHA and a cannabinoid means caution is advised; always clear any active-rich formula with your health professional before slathering it on a bump-in-progress.
What I Liked/Didn’t Like
After two weeks these are the points that stood out most clearly.
What Works Well:
- Cushiony texture sinks in quickly yet leaves a lasting hydrated feel that survives eight hours of central heating
- Delivers a next-morning glow and slight firmness without triggering redness or congestion, even on reactive combination skin
- Streamlines the night routine by covering hydration gentle exfoliation and calming in a single step
What to Consider:
- Results stay on the subtle side so those seeking noticeable resurfacing may need a stronger active alongside
- Price sits at the higher end of night creams offering comparable benefits
- Lactic acid level feels mild which is great for sensitivity but may not satisfy seasoned acid users
My Final Thoughts
Resilience Night Soufflé earns a solid 7.5/10 in my book. It does a commendable job of cushioning skin through late nights and central-heating season, delivering steady hydration and a touch of overnight brightening that feels honest rather than hype. After two disciplined weeks I saw smoother texture and less morning puff, yet the transformation stayed within the bounds of “nice upgrade” rather than “who is that in the mirror.” That is perfectly fine for anyone hunting a reliable single-step night cream, but if you crave blockbuster resurfacing or dramatic firmness you will want to layer actives or keep a retinoid in play.
Who should consider it? Sensitive or combination skin that wants low-drama repair and gentle exfoliation in one move. Who might skip it? Acid aficionados chasing a quicker glow or budget hawks who prefer a bigger punch per pound. I would recommend it to a friend whose skin mood swings with stress but I would be clear about the subtlety of the results.
If you want something in a similar vein but with different price or texture profiles, a few I have used and rate highly are worth flagging. Nocturnal Revive Cream by Deascal is an excellent all-rounder that covers hydration barrier support and mild brightening at a very friendly cost. For deeper overnight recovery Squalane + Ectoin Overnight Rescue by BIOSSANCE wraps skin in a comforting veil without heaviness. Those who like a fresh gel finish might reach for Water Sleeping Mask by LANEIGE which leaves skin plump by sunrise. Finally Pro-Collagen Night Cream by ELEMIS leans firmer and richer and has impressed me each time dry winter air rolls in.
Before slathering anything new on your face keep a few basics in mind: patch test behind the ear or along the jaw for at least 24 hours, introduce only one new product at a time and remember that any glow you gain needs consistent use to stick around. Sorry for sounding like an over-protective parent but skin has a long memory and patience always pays off.
