From Dry to Dewy: Rescue Your Midlife Skin Crisis


Listen Later

Your skin seems to have changed overnight. The moisturiser that once worked wonders now barely makes a difference. Dryness, sensitivity, maybe even unexpected rashes have appeared—and you're wondering if it's all in your head.

It's not. As your body navigates the hormonal shifts of perimenopause and beyond, your skin is responding in real, biological ways. During our reproductive years, estrogen acts as our skin's personal trainer, maintaining collagen production, hydration, and elasticity. But when those hormone levels begin fluctuating and eventually declining, our skin reflects these changes dramatically—becoming thinner, drier, and more sensitive. Most striking is the research showing we lose up to 30% of our skin's collagen within just five years after menopause.

The good news? While we can't stop time, we absolutely can support our skin through this transition using gentle, non-toxic approaches that align with our values. From konjac sponges that provide perfect morning exfoliation without harsh products, to layering techniques with hyaluronic acid and nourishing plant oils, to the internal support of omega-3s and antioxidant-rich foods—there are many ways to help your skin not just survive this transition, but thrive.

This episode breaks down exactly why your skin feels different now and provides practical, natural solutions to help you maintain radiant, comfortable skin through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond. Your skin's changing needs aren't a beauty emergency—they're simply a signal to evolve your approach to skincare in this new chapter of life.
