Collection: Products Targeting Dry Skin

During menopause, many women experience an increase in dry skin, which can be attributed to several hormonal and physiological changes that occur during this life stage.

One of the primary hormonal changes during menopause is the significant decrease in estrogen levels. Estrogen plays a crucial role in maintaining skin health by promoting collagen production and supporting the skin's ability to retain moisture. As estrogen levels drop, the skin's ability to retain water diminishes, leading to increased dryness.

Estrogen is also involved in regulating the rate of skin cell turnover, ensuring that dead skin cells are shed and replaced with new ones. As estrogen levels decline, the skin's turnover process may slow down, leading to a build-up of dry, dead skin cells on the skin's surface.

The key steps to combat dry skin are to use gentle cleansers, moisturise regularly, protect your skin from the sun and stay hydrated.
