A Quick Guide to Menopause (with Some Gift Ideas!)
Going through menopause is a time when our skin sees some big changes. This transformation can start a few years before menopause itself, in a phase known as perimenopause. Although we’re constantly discovering new things about how hormones team up with our skin, truth be told, many of us aren’t quite ready for the skin surprises this life stage brings.
So, we thought we’d break down the main things that might be happening and offer up some solutions. We hope this quick guide helps you navigate through your skin journey during this period.
1. Dry Skin
During these years, your skin might not be making as much of its natural oils, leaving it feeling constantly quenched. To tackle this, we recommend trying out Intelligent Frontier Facial Oil. It gives your skin the moisturising boost it needs with key lipids.
2. Loss of Firmness and Expression Lines
Now is when collagen less really moves up a gear. You can give back a bit of future-proof, sustainable, and vegan collagen to your skin with Plant Perfection Gel Serum. This serum also helps create a kind of support network, which helps skin regain lost firmness.
3. Acne
Even if you’ve never had a breakout before, hormonal imbalances brought on by menopause can cause acne. Ideal Rebalancing Level Serum can help regulate the process and keep things in check.
4. Uneven Skin Tone
Your skin’s natural renewal process might be slowing down, making it look a bit dull. Our cleanser, Charcoal Peace Calming Cleanser, is a gentle alternative to those chemical exfoliants and helps bring back a bit of your natural glow.
5. Sensitivity
Hormonal changes might be making your skin more sensitive, causing redness or even rosacea. Nutritive Repair Emulsion is like a soothing hug for your skin, especially if it’s on the sensitive side.
We hope these tips make dealing with menopause and taking care of your skin a bit easier.
