The best natural skincare ingredients for perimenopausal skin

When it comes to skincare for perimenopause, it’s important to choose products that focus on soothing, hydrating, and protecting your skin. The best skincare for perimenopausal skin should include ingredients that address dryness, redness, and hormonal acne. Here are some key ingredients to look for in skincare products for perimenopausal skin:

Avenanthramides: Derived from organic oats, this is a powerful ingredient known for its soothing and calming properties. Rich in beta-glucans and antioxidants, this high-tech oat extract helps to reduce inflammation, hydrate, and repair the skin's natural barrier. It helps reduce inflammation and can provide relief from the discomfort that comes with sensitive skin during perimenopause.

Mānuka honey: This wonder ingredient, unique to New Zealand, is a must in any skincare regime for perimenopause. It’s super hydrating and nourishing, with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties to calm skin and target hormonal blemishes. 

Hyaluronic acid: This powerful ingredient is excellent for hydrating dry skin during perimenopause. Hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the skin. Holding up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, it helps keep skin plump and hydrated, making it perfect for tackling dehydration caused by hormonal changes.

Peptides from nature: These help stimulate collagen production, improving the elasticity of your skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines. Peptides are beneficial for keeping skin firm and youthful, especially during the hormonal changes of perimenopause.
