Olay Complete Daily Defense All Day
Moisturizer ($14.99) “Sunscreen is your first line
of defense to prevent skin aging. Physical blockers
like this, made with micronized zinc oxide or
titanium dioxide, provide uVa and uVB protection
without causing sensitivity. Physical blockers sit on
top of skin to reflect uV rays (while ingredients in
chemical blockers penetrate the skin instead).”
Tea Time
Replenix Cream ($67) “as the skin ages, it
becomes drier and more easily irritated. a
moisturizer infused with a free-radical-fighting
antioxidant like green tea boosts hydration and
improves overall skin health. apply it over your
sunscreen daily or a few times a week.”

($21.99) “Vitamin a creams [otC retinol and
prescription-strength Retin-a] prevent fine lines,
exfoliate to speed up cell renewal, and lighten
brown spots. Start slowly—use just once or twice
a week—because the superstar ingredient
can cause peeling if your skin isn’t used to it.

Neutrogena Deep Clean Gentle Scrub ($5.99)
“the older you get, the slower cell turnover
becomes, causing skin cell buildup and a dull
complexion. Remove the top layer of skin twice a
week with a beaded exfoliating wash—just apply
to your fingertips and gently rub in a circular
motion over damp skin—to help remove these
dead cells and stimulate new cell growth.”

“Winter is tough
on nails and
cuticles. I find
this cuticle oil,
with vitamins
A and E and a
blend of 10 oils
such as almond,
sesame, apricot,
avocado, and
jojoba, is a good
product to keep
nails healthy and
cuticles hydrated.
Keep the tube
on your bedside
table and apply
a couple of drops
nightly around
each nail, massaging
into the
cuticle. An added
benefit is that the
oil will help you
maintain your
manicure longer.
If you try one of
the new ‘no-chip’
manicures, a
good cuticle oil is
essential; those
long-lasting manicures
can leave
nails parched
over time.”
