Skincare doesn’t stop at your jawline, but most routines do. I give the rest of the body the same scrutiny I give my face. I look for formulas that feel good enough to use every day and work hard enough to show results. If a body cream smells divine but leaves me itchy or greasy, it’s out.

This is where I review all of it: body washes, scrubs, lotions, hand creams, and the occasional hair and scalp treatment.

Dry, cracked hands? Start with the best hand creams for dry, aging hands.
