As the weather gets colder and drier, your skin can become more sensitive and prone to irritation. Keeping your skin moisturized and protected helps prevent dryness, cracking, and irritation, which are all important for staying comfortable and healthy as you age.

Moisturize Daily 💧

Choose a rich, fragrance-free lotion or cream and apply it right after bathing to lock in moisture.
Dress for the Weather 🧣🧤

Cover up exposed skin with scarves, gloves, and hats to protect against cold, wind, and dry air.
Limit Hot Showers 🚿

Hot water can strip natural oils from your skin. Use warm water instead and keep showers short.
Stay Hydrated 🥤

Even in colder months, drinking water supports healthy skin from the inside out.

Professional caregivers also provide not just support, but companionship—helping to prevent loneliness and encourage meaningful engagement. Home becomes the center of care and connection.
