If you are over 65 and have noticed that your skin feels drier, itchier, or more sensitive than it once did, this change is not imagined—and it is not necessarily a problem with your moisturizer. Many older adults continue the same shower habits they developed decades earlier, believing that daily hot showers are essential for cleanliness and comfort. However, as the body ages, the skin undergoes subtle but important changes that make it more vulnerable to irritation. What once felt refreshing and beneficial can gradually begin to work against skin health, leading to tightness, flaking, and discomfort even when good hygiene is being maintained.
