If you’re here, chances are you’re noticing some changes in your skin. Maybe it’s feeling drier than usual, looking a little less radiant, or suddenly deciding to throw some breakouts into the mix? First things first, you’re not alone. These shifts are completely natural as we enter perimenopause and menopause, and there are ways to support your skin through it.
What Happens to Your Skin During Menopause?
Your skin is always changing, but menopause brings some significant shifts due to hormonal changes, particularly a drop in estrogen. This affects your skin in a few key ways:
🌿 Loss of Hydration & Dryness Estrogen helps skin retain moisture, so when levels drop, skin can become drier, tighter, and sometimes flaky.
🌿 Loss of Elasticity & Collagen Estrogen also plays a huge role in collagen production. Less collagen means skin can start to feel thinner and less plump, leading to sagging or fine lines appearing more noticeable.
🌿 Increased Sensitivity & Redness As the skin barrier weakens, it can become more reactive to ingredients that never bothered you before. You might notice redness, irritation, or even unexpected flare-ups.
🌿 Breakouts & Congestion With hormonal fluctuations, some women experience acne-like breakouts (yes, menopause acne is a thing!). Your skin is trying to rebalance itself, and sometimes that means unexpected congestion.
🌿 Dullness & Lack of Glow Cell turnover slows down, meaning your skin might start to look a little dull or tired.
