h ig h lig h te r. I’ve said it before, and
I’ll keep on saying it: Commit to
using a highlighter every day. A dab
high on your cheekbones, and a tad
on temples or under the brow bone
give instant youthful luminosity.

7. rethink
- y o u r a n ti-a g in g
ro u tin e . Skin care science just keeps getting better
and better. So if you’re still dipping into the same old
anti-ager that’s been yourgo-to forthe last decade,
you’re shortchangingyourself. I’ll be slathering on
Avon ANEW Reversalist, which contains an exciting
new molecule said to reactivate skin’s repair process,
minimizing wrinkles and small crinkles; $32.
8. resolve
to
sche du le y o u r y e a rly s k in ca n ce r
scree nin g. Covered up in warm sweaters
and long pants all winter, you tend to forget
about sun damage. Yet now’s the time to
have a doctor perform a full body scan for
questionable moles and freckles. And don’t
neglect dai ly su n protection. “Most people
are not aware that winter sun causes as
much damage as summer’s UV rays,” says
Paul Friedman, New York dermatologist and
author of
Beautiful Skin Revealed.
10. rebalance
y o u r s k in b y c le a n in g th e g rim e an d
o ils o ffy o u r phones. If you’ve ever taken a
look at your cell phone’s screen on a warm
day, or noticed a slight foundation film sitting
on the bottom half of the telephone receiver,
you know what I mean. Use this opportunity
to take an antibacterial wipe to each phone
in your home. Pledge to repeat this process
regularly throughout the year.
9. restock
shelves with
