As we age, our skin and hair undergo significant changes, which necessitates an update to our beauty routines. Dermatologist and “Today” contributor, Dr. Henry, has curated a selection of essential products that should be incorporated into your daily regimen.
To start, Dr. Henry emphasizes the importance of hydration. As we reach our 40s, skin tends to become drier, losing about 1% of collagen annually beginning in our 20s. This cumulative loss can result in a 70% decrease by middle age. For combating dryness and enhancing skin plumpness, Dr. Henry recommends E.L.F. Hydration, packed with hyaluronic acid. This versatile serum can be used twice daily, is priced at an affordable $12, and can be applied to both the face and neck. After the serum, applying a moisturizer helps seal in moisture, with dry skin types benefiting from a richer formula and those with oily skin opting for a lighter gel.
Next, attention turns to the neck—an often overlooked area that also shows age. Dr. Henry introduces a neck and décolletage serum featuring antioxidants to combat sun damage and brighten the skin. Improvements can be seen in about four weeks, and the inclusion of a rollerball applicator makes application easy and enjoyable. While it’s named “Womaness,” it’s suitable for all; containing microalgae to smooth the neck area, this product is priced at $34.99.
For our lips, Dr. Henry recommends Cocokind, which not only plumps the lips but also reduces fine lines, making a noticeable difference. This product has received positive feedback for its non-sticky texture and appealing colors.
As eyelashes tend to thin with age, Dr. Henry suggests a mascara with a growth serum and a stabilizing wand to avoid accidents during application. This mascara is available for $28.
An innovative multitasker product combines skincare with makeup, featuring vitamin C for brightness and buildable coverage that won’t settle into fine lines—ideal for ensuring a smooth finish without caking.
Lastly, for haircare, Dr. Henry recommends Pantene Pro-V shampoo, which fortifies mature hair with collagen and hydration, addressing issues such as graying and wiry strands. This affordable option is priced at just $9.97.
With these recommended products, both skincare and haircare can effectively adapt to the changes that come with age, helping to maintain a youthful appearance and confidence.

No more Botox for you Dr. Henry. Unless medically necessary
That gal wearing the foundation is too young to be modeling mature skin products! Lines? Hilarious
