Embarking on the journey from peri to post menopause brings about changes in our skin due to hormonal fluctuations. This blog post provides a concise guide to gracefully navigate these shifts and embrace your evolving skin.
1. Enlarged Pores: Combat enlarged pores with fine clay powders, essential fatty acids, and pH-balancing oils. These ingredients gently extract impurities and tighten pores.
2. Sun Sensitivity: Address increased sun sensitivity by incorporating bakuchiol, a natural plant-based retinol alternative, into your routine for skin cell regeneration without harsh effects.
3. Loss of Collagen and Elastin: Counteract the loss of collagen and elastin with hyaluronic acid, pomegranate extract, and Kakadu plum. These ingredients hydrate the skin and support collagen production.
4. Hyperpigmentation: Combat hyperpigmentation with niacinamide (B3), which fades dark marks and acts preventively against future ones, promoting an even skin tone.
5. Dry and Itchy Skin on the Body: Address dryness and itchiness with a hydrating Himalayan salt scrub. Exfoliate dead skin cells and moisturise with oils and butters for maximum hydration.
Embracing Change with Self-Love: Recognise that your skincare needs, evolve through menopause. Adjust your routine with self-love, understanding that what worked pre-menopause may need modification. Treat your skin with care at every stage of your journey.
Conclusion: Navigating menopausal changes is a natural process. By understanding these shifts and adapting your skincare routine, you can embrace this new chapter confidently. Let your skincare reflect the self-love you deserve, honouring the unique beauty of each life phase. After all, as our skin evolves, so should our skincare.
