The problem: A dull complexion Solution: This light-textured cream is quickly absorbed and adds instant luminosity to dry skin. Infused with essential oils, it’s especially soothing to aging skin, and the subtle scent will have you coming back for more. Try: L’Oréal Age Perfect Glow Renewal Replenishing Cream, $30.

The problem:  Scaly and dry post-shower skin Solution: Packed with vitamins, essential oils (like vanilla and neroli) and 100 percent natural ingredients, this softening body cleanser is ideal for all skin types. The nourishing blend washes away dead skin and dirt without drying you out. Try: Weleda Pomegranate Creamy Body Wash, $15.

The problem: Tired, puffy eyes Solution: Thanks to cucumber and watermelon extracts, this refreshing treatment is delicate enough for your eye area but powerful enough to hide the signs of aging (and that hangover!). Top-notch brightening ingredients include vitamin C and hyaluronic acid. Try: Darphin Eye Sorbet Mask, $57.

The problem: Damaged locks Solution: Bursting with essential oils and amino acids, this strengthening shampoo treats weak, brittle hair by reinforcing the strand structure and fighting future breakage. Plus, the nourishing formula is great in cold temps when your locks are extra thirsty. Try: L’Occitane Aroma Repairing Shampoo, $22.

The problem: Tight, itchy skin Solution: This silky cream absorbs quickly and evenly into skin and doesn’t feel sticky. Lay it on thick for especially dry spots like elbows, feet and hands — the long-lasting formula will hydrate you all day. Try: Garnier Body Repair Reparative Balm, $8.

The problem: Chapped lips Solution: Designed with the most sensitive skin types in mind, this gentle balm helps keep lips smooth and soft with hydrating shea butter and vitamin E. Bonus: It’s safe for the whole family to use. Try: Bioderma Atoderm Moisturizing Stick, $7.

The problem: Aging, sensitive skin Solution: This formula is all about improving skin radiance. Vitamin B3 helps soothe and diminish redness and uneven skin tone while soy proteins reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Try: Aveeno Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream, $23.

The problem: Over- treated, dry hair Solution: Give your hair the R & R it deserves with a rich overnight leave-in mask. Smoothing and rejuvenating, this lightweight serum reverses the effects of stress on hair from styling and chemical treatments. Try: Pantene Pro-V Repair & Protect Overnight Miracle Repair Serum, $8.

The problem: Dehydrated skin Solution: Don’t be scared — cleansing with oils is great for every skin type, especially in winter time! Massage this non-greasy formula into damp or dry skin and rinse with warm water for a clear, soft complexion. It removes eye makeup too. Try: Dior Instant Gentle cleansing Oil, $40.
