Reaching menopause can be challenging for women in a number of ways. For some women, a difference in the texture and appearance of skin is noticed due to the significant hormonal changes that the body is experiencing. As oestrogen levels decline, the skin may become thinner, drier, and lose elasticity, leading to wrinkles, sagging, and age spots.
While this can understandably cause frustration, there are a number of ways to care for menopausal skin and maintain a healthy glow.
MOISTURISE
Moisturising twice daily will keep skin hydrated and supple. The Fade Out Collagen Boost Day & Night Creams contain a number of ingredients to support skin health, such as glycerin, a skin replenishing and restoring ingredient that helps the complexion retain moisture.
PROTECT SKIN
Wear sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every day, even on cloudy days! Skin is more susceptible to sun damage during menopause, with increased exposure to UV rays causing premature ageing.
USE GENTLE PRODUCTS
Avoid harsh cleansers that can strip your skin of its natural oils. Instead, opt for light, suitable for all skin types cleansers such as the Fade Out Anti-Wrinkle Brightening Facial Wash – this creamy formula helps gently remove impurities to reveal a luminous and hydrated complexion. The addition of active ingredient, Niacinamide, works to reduce the appearance of age spots, sun damage and pigmentation whilst gently brightening the overall skin tone to promote a more youthful and radiant glow.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY
Good skin starts from within. Eating a diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals can help keep your skin healthy and glowing. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein in your diet. Ensuring daily exercise is prioritised will also bring huge benefits.
It's never too late to start taking care of your skin - with a few simple changes to your daily routine, you can help keep your skin healthy and radiant, even during menopause.
