This isn’t our first rodeo.
At 50-plus we’ve got the cold weather drill down.
Moisturizer and lip balm?
Hand cream and hair mask?
And yet every year when the temperature goes down we emerge from our puffers and scarves with a howl.
Why the dull, lined, blotchy skin, chapped lips and bone-dry hair?
We’ve been doing everything right, right?
The truth is, we need more than the same old TLC to avoid those perennial problems.
Here are 10 fixes for all:
1.
Protect your hair.C’mon, wear the hat!
Double down on moisturizer.Our grownup skin has been around the block.
It’s thinner, drier, more prone to discoloration even before this seasonal shift.
Step it up with thicker creams that have the power to tackle moisture-starved skin head to toe.
After all: Your face isn’t wearing a fake fur or down coat for protection
3.
The rest of the ingredient menu is the gravy that makes mature skin look brighter and feel comfy again.
