Turning 50 is a major milestone worth celebrating, but it can come with its share of changes. With wisdom and maturity on your side, you're better prepared to navigate life’s shifts. For many women, menopause brings internal and external changes, including reduced skin resilience due to fluctuating estrogen levels.
A tailored skincare regimen can help restore nutrients, improve texture, and revitalize your skin. It’s never too late to start—this milestone marks a new chapter filled with possibility!
Skin Care At 50
It's likely that the changes on your skin have been gradually developing, but it's becoming more difficult to ignore them. Your body stops producing as much collagen during menopause due to changes in hormones. Your skin becomes less elastic and you lose some fat beneath it.
Key Skin Changes:
- Collagen Decline: Less collagen leads to reduced elasticity, causing fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging (especially around the neck, jawline, and cheeks).
- Fat Loss: Loss of fat beneath the skin contributes to drooping.
- Dryness: Hormonal fluctuations reduce oil production, leading to dryness and a weakened moisture barrier.
- Sun Damage Accumulation: Wrinkles and dark spots from years of UV exposure become more noticeable.
- Sagging & Enlarged Pores: Gravity and collagen loss cause sagging jowls and larger pores.
To maintain healthy skin and balanced hydration levels at periods when our skin is changing, it's critical that we preserve the skin's microbiome and moisture barrier. Dryness, irritation, redness, and dullness are indicators of a weakened microbiota, which is more likely to occur during menopause when our skin produces less oil.
Especially around the eyes, lips, and neck, where the skin is thinner, hormonal and pH changes exacerbate skin weakness and jeopardise the skin's moisture barrier. Your skin becomes more sensitive and irritating when it is inflamed. To make matters worse, acne can occasionally resurface as a result of a hormonal imbalance.
