Mastering Skincare Through Hormonal Changes

Adapting our skincare routines to seasonal changes is a common practice, but aging with confidence can be a real challenge when it comes to adjusting to hormonal changes. Whether going through perimenopause or menopause or experiencing the more subtle hormonal shift known as andropause (for men), taking care of your skin becomes crucial during these transitional phases.

Skin Evolution Across the Decades:

As we age, our skin experiences some changes, from our teenage years to our eighties. It becomes more sensitive, and transformations are common. But it's in our mid-40s, and especially in our 50s, when the most significant changes begin to occur. The skin's regeneration and repair capacity slows considerably while the natural aging process accelerates.

The Impact of Hormonal Changes:

In women, the reduction in estrogen levels leads to skin thinning. Collagen loss becomes pronounced, and hyaluronic acid (a vital humectant) levels decline; consequently, the skin loses its lustre and elasticity.

Men, on the other hand, experience a decrease in testosterone production, resulting in the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin. Mature skin tends to dry out due to reduced sebum production.

Skin changes from one decade of life to the next. But the most significant changes occur starting in your mid-40s and accelerating into your 50s. Hormonal changes - women experience perimenopause and menopause, and men experience andropause - cause skin regeneration and repair to slow down while the aging process accelerates.

Embracing the Journey:

As our skin changes from one decade to the next, it is in our mid-40s and beyond that we experience the most significant transformations. Hormonal changes, such as perimenopause, menopause, and andropause, cause a slowdown in skin regeneration and repair while aging accelerates. Consequently, our skin loses its natural glow and elasticity, making it more prone to redness and irritation.

Furthermore, as we age, the levels of ceramides that act as a protective barrier for our skin decrease. This leads to drier skin, which often manifests as increased irritation.

Introducing the Powerhouse Restore Anti-aging Treatment:

To address these challenges, we have developed a gender-neutral Restore treatment meticulously formulated to combat the effects of aging. Our cream combines high concentrations of niacinamide, peptides, bakuchiol, squalane, and hyaluronic acid. Restore deeply hydrates and rejuvenates your skin, restoring its vitality, radiance, and firmness.

Key ingredients:

• Pentavitin locks in moisture for up to 12 hours, strengthening the skin’s natural defences and preventing further dehydration.
  
• Bakuchiol (3%) diminishes wrinkles, improves elasticity, and smoothes skin without the irritation that retinol can cause.
  
• Hyaluronic Acid (10%) locks in moisture and helps prevent water loss to keep skin healthy and hydrated.
  
• Niacinamide (6%) reduces the look of pores, minimizes impurities, brightens, and improves the natural production of ceramides,
  
• Peptide Blend delivers more resilient, healthy-looking skin, smoothing wrinkles, diminishes signs of aging, and supports healthy skin aging.
  
• Coenzyme Q10 promotes elasticity and provides a skin-soothing benefit.
  
• Olive Squalane deeply replenishes and moisturizes even very dry skin for lasting comfort.
  
• Vitamin E (mixed Tocopherols) softens and repairs dry skin, protecting it from environmental aggressors.
