Lip balm/ petroleum jelly ( for lips and ~1"+ past lips on skin, even nostrils). Frigid dry air chaps skin fast, especially when you lick your lips.

Ski goggles. Keeps dry frigid breeze off eyes. Minimizes exposed skin to reduce risk of frostbite. Retains heat.

Foam on eyeglass arms over ears: If you wear glasses, particularly metal frames/arms, cover arms with foam to reduce heat loss where they contact head (highly vascular ear/temple area). Rolls of thin adhesive foam tape (judge color) can be purchased at your local stores in the first aid section.
