Why skin changes: Lower estrogen in your 50s reduces collagen, thins skin, and decreases oil production, leading to dryness, dullness, and sensitivity.
Morning must-haves: Dermatologists recommend a hydrating cleanser, moisturizer with ceramides or peptides, and daily SPF 30–50 sunscreen as non-negotiables.
Nighttime essentials: A thorough cleanse, retinol treatment, and rich night cream form the core of an effective evening routine for mature skin.
