Menopause brings about a lot of changes, and your skin is no exception! As hormones shift, your skin might start acting up in new ways - feeling drier, more sensitive, or suddenly prone to redness and breakouts. But not to worry - with the right care, you can keep that healthy glow going strong.
With World Menopause Day around the corner on October 18th, now is the perfect time to show your skin some extra love. Sásta Skin Health is here with some simple, effective tips to help you navigate these changes and help you feel great in your skin during menopause and beyond.
How does our skin change?
As oestrogen levels drop, your skin can feel drier, more sensitive, and prone to things like redness or even the occasional breakout. But with a few tweaks to your routine, you can keep your skin looking its best.
Common skin challenges & how you can treat them:
Dry, Itchy Skin: Skin feeling extra dry lately? It’s because oestrogen helps lock in moisture, and without it, your skin can lose hydration faster. Sásta’s Microbiome Booster Serum is packed with Ectoin, a powerhouse ingredient that locks in moisture and strengthens your skin’s barrier, making it perfect for battling dryness.
Redness & Flushing: Hot flushes during menopause can leave your skin red and irritated. To soothe the heat, try using calming products like Sásta’s Microbiome Booster Serum, which has anti-inflammatory properties to reduce redness and irritation.
Menopausal Acne: Yes, hormonal breakouts can still happen during menopause! But with Sásta’s serum, loaded with prebiotics and postbiotics, you can balance your skin’s microbiome and help keep those breakouts under control.
Sun Damage & Aging: Menopause can make sun damage more noticeable, with uneven skin tone, dark spots, and dullness becoming more prominent. Daily SPF is a must to help combat this! Pair your SPF with Sásta’s serum, which repairs damaged skin cells and boosts collagen, helping to smooth and even out your complexion.
More Than Just Skincare
Taking care of your skin during menopause is about more than just the products you use. Here are a few lifestyle tweaks that can help make all the difference:
Eat for Your Skin: A diet rich in healthy fats and antioxidants works wonders for your skin. Try to limit triggers like caffeine, sugar, or spicy foods, which can sometimes cause redness or flare-ups.
Focus on a healthy sleep routine: Sleep is when your skin does its best repair work, so make sure you’re getting enough rest to support that natural process.
Keep Your Routine Simple: You don’t need to overwhelm your skin with tons of products. Stick to hydrating, calming, and soothing ingredients to support your skin through this transition.
Remember, your skin radiates beauty at every age. By making a few simple adjustments to your routine and using the right products from Sásta Skin Health, you can keep your glow shining bright through menopause and beyond!
