What is Menopause?
Menopause marks a significant transformation in a woman’s life, defined as the point when she experiences her last menstrual period. When a woman has gone a full year without menstruating, she is considered postmenopausal. This transition generally happens naturally between the ages of 44 and 55.
Menopause begins as the ovaries stop producing eggs, resulting in a cessation of cyclical estrogen and progesterone production. This leads to a decline in ovarian follicles and a decrease in hormones that once played crucial roles in reproductive function, impacting various aspects of overall health and well-being. Menopause can also be induced earlier due to factors such as surgical removal of the ovaries, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy. Menopause occurring before age 40 is considered premature, while onset between 40 and 45 is classified as early.
What is Perimenopause?
Before reaching menopause, women go through a phase known as perimenopause. This transition period can start up to 7 years prior to menopause and extend up to 1 year after. It's characterized by fluctuating hormone levels, irregular menstrual cycles, and the onset of various symptoms. These symptoms can include hot flashes, night sweats, changes in menstrual flow, and occasionally premenstrual symptoms like sore breasts. During this time, menstrual cycles become unpredictable, though pregnancy is still possible.
How Menopause Affects the Skin
During menopause, hormonal shifts, especially the drop in estrogen levels, have a profound effect on the skin’s structure, resilience, and appearance. Estrogen plays a key role in maintaining skin elasticity and hydration, so when levels decrease, it leads to a range of noticeable skin changes.
Decreased Collagen and Loss of Firmness
Estrogen is essential for collagen production, the protein that keeps skin plump and firm. With lower estrogen, collagen levels drop, causing skin to thin, sag, and lose elasticity. This often leads to a droopier appearance and the deepening of wrinkles. Peptides and ceramides, which are naturally present compounds that support skin structure, also diminish, further weakening skin firmness and elasticity.
Increased Dryness and Sensitivity
Menopausal skin tends to lose moisture more easily as its ability to retain water declines. This is due to a weakened skin barrier resulting in higher transepidermal water loss (TDWL). Making skin rougher and more prone to irritation, especially in drier environments. Additionally, as estrogen declines, the skin’s pH level shifts, making it more sensitive. Existing conditions like eczema or rosacea may worsen, and the skin may react adversely to synthetics, fragrances, or harsh ingredients.
Age Spots and Sun Damage
With age, sun exposure often leads to age spots or hyperpigmentation, which can become more pronounced post-menopause. Sun protection is vital during this phase to prevent further sun damage.

Changes in Oil Production and Acne
Interestingly, menopause can also lead to an increase in acne due to fluctuating androgen levels, which can boost sebum (oil) production. However, as the skin is thinner and more delicate, you need to treat this kind of acne with gentle balancing ingredients that clears pores without overdying. The Metamorphosis Recovery pH Balancing Cream Cleanser and Flawless Vitamin C Brightening Exfoliating Powder are skin saviors when combating menopausal acne.
Unwanted Facial Hair
A decline in estrogen can also lead to the appearance of facial hair, particularly on the chin and jawline. This is due to the relatively higher presence of androgens, which can stimulate hair growth.

Ceramides these essential lipids reinforce the skin’s natural barrier, ceramides lock in moisture and prevent water loss. They protect skin cells from environmental stressors, helping the skin maintain resilience against pollutants and daily wear.
Peptides are the short chains of amino acids that encourage collagen production, peptides improve skin firmness and elasticity, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and enhance moisture retention for a more resilient complexion.
Bakuchiol: A plant-derived alternative to retinol, bakuchiol stimulates collagen production, smooths texture and reduces fine lines. It also offers antioxidant protection, making it ideal for sensitive menopausal skin.
