Skin and personal care

Thinner skin dries and tears more easily, and the parts that need cream are often the parts that can't be reached. How picks are chosen

What to look for

  • Fragrance-free, because fragrance is the usual cause of the itching.
  • Long-handled applicators for the back and the feet.
  • No-rinse products for the stretches when a shower isn't happening.

Common questions

What products are best for fragile, aging skin?
Fragrance-free, gentle, hypoallergenic cleansers and moisturizers are kindest to thin, sensitive skin. A barrier cream protects areas prone to irritation.
How can someone bathe when a full shower is too hard?
No-rinse cleansing foams, body wipes, and a microwavable no-rinse shampoo cap let someone stay clean and fresh without a full shower.
