When your body starts going through menopause, it brings some serious changes to your hair, skin, and hormones. When your hormone levels plummet, your skin is one of the first places it will show.
Instead of suffering from menopausal skin, there are some easy tricks you can use to help care for the most important areas. They’re quick, easy, and keep you looking youthful and confident!
Your Chest
Once you begin menopause, and as you progress through it, your entire body loses its valuable collagen and elastin. This means that your skin is going to lose its battle against gravity, and aginst firmness. While many people suffer silently with the effects of menopausal skin, you can reclaim your confidence by using a special treatment to help deal with your sagging chest – which is giving your true age away.
Taking care of your chest is a priority because it is an unexpected area that ages. While most women only focus on their face, caring for your chest will take years off your look and have you feeling more confident. It will also help protect that delicate skin from premature aging and unnecessary sagging thanks to firming and lifting peptides if you’re using a formulation like our Neck Firming Cream!
Eyelids
You’ve probably included some form of eye products in your routine before, but menopause means a new focus. While many people worry about undereye bags and dark circles, in menopause you’re more likely to suffer from dreaded sagging eyelids than ever before. A tricky combination of collagen loss and gravity is responsible for these unpleasant side effects, but it can be easy to deal with if you know what you’re doing.
When you apply your eye serum daily, make sure that you’re applying it to your eyelids both morning and night. By delivering nutrients and peptides to this extremely delicate area, it will help fortify and restructure your skin. Best of all, firming up your eyelid skin will allow you to apply makeup with more ease and add a more youthful look to your entire face. After all, the eyes are the window to your soul, and your soul is still young and heart!
Hydration
Perhaps the worse side effect of menopausal skin is the dryness and dullness you’re likely to experience. It may feel like your skin has dried up, and that dehydrated feeling can make wrinkles look worse than ever. If you are suffering from dryness or feel like your skin has lost its sparkle, keeping your skin hydrated is going to mask wrinkles, brighten skin, and restore your complexion.
When you treat skin during menopause, look for super hydrating and brightening ingredients that can go to work right away on your skin. Some of the most effective are shea butter and argan oil which work to brighten + hydrated even the deeper layers of your skin. In as little as a few weeks using a powerful moisturizer twice a day, you’ll get your glowing skin back to its former glory and feel extra confident and beautiful!
