HOW DOES PERI-MENOPAUSE AFFECT YOUR SKIN? 🧑🏼‍⚕️🧬 Peri-menopause is the time during which your body makes its natural transition to menopause, marking the end of your reproductive years. As you approach menopause, estrogen – an anti-inflammatory hormone that’s key to collagen production – starts to decrease. This reduction affects the skin’s elasticity and resilience, whilst the pH level of the skin also changes after the age of 50. As a result, you may experience... 1️⃣ Increased sensitivity and dryness
 2️⃣ Thinner, delicate skin with a lack of elasticity and suppleness
 3️⃣ Breakouts, as a result of a relative increase in the activity of androgen hormones such as testosterone 
 4️⃣ A flare-up of skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea or psoriasis My Menopause Skin Set is designed to care for your skin in peri-menopause and contains potent anti-aging and lipid-rich ingredients that help boost depleted moisture levels, soothe irritation and prevent the onset of hyperpigmentation. ✨ Click the link in our bio to shop! #D#DrBarbaraSturmM#MenopausalSkinMenopauseMonday
