Menopause is an inevitable part of a woman’s life yet it’s hardly discussed. There is a shift in dialogue but there is more to learn and understand about what changes women go through during this season, such as the changes in skin and hair health.
As estrogen levels decrease, many women experience dry skin, thinning hair, wrinkles, and the resurgence of acne. MONAT is committed to providing effective solutions to help address these challenges and to make every woman feel confident, with a variety of products designed to alleviate the signs of menopause-related skin and hair concerns.
Age Spots and Sun Damage
Hormonal changes during menopause often make age spots and skin discolouration more prominent. To combat this, MONAT recommends C. RadianceTM Illuminating Serum $158, a powerful 15 per cent vitamin C serum enriched with antioxidants. Clinical results show*:
- 97 per cent of participants noticed their skin appeared more radiant and refreshed
- 100 per cent observed a reduction in the appearance of photodamage
- 93 per cent of users reported visible improvements in wrinkles and expression lines
- 100 percent experienced smoother, softer skin.
Dry, Dehydrated Skin
As hormonal fluctuations, decreased collagen, and thinning skin take their toll, with dry and dehydrated skin becoming more common during menopause. MONAT’s Hydration BoosterTM Hyaluronic Serum Plus $117 provides an ultra-hydrating solution to replenish the skin’s moisture barrier. After just 15 days:
- 100 per cent of participants reported improved skin hydration
- 91 per cent noted the product’s positive impact on skin appearance.
- 97 per cent of users confirmed they would continue using the product for its visible hydration benefits.
Thinner-Looking Hair
Hormonal shifts can also contribute to thinning hair, often leading to reduced hair growth and a decrease in hair thickness. To support fuller, thicker-looking hair, MONAT recommends its Intense Repair System $260, a three-product regimen that includes Intense Repair Shampoo, Conditioner, and Treatment. This invigorating system helps strengthen hair and restore its natural vitality, promoting the appearance of thicker, more youthful hair.
Slack Skin and Wrinkles
Thinning skin, reduced collagen production, and the onset of wrinkles are additional challenges women may face during menopause. MONAT’s Night HavenTM Overnight Age Control Cream $135 is a luxurious, nourishing solution designed to help tighten, plump, and smooth skin overnight. After just one use, 100 per cent of participants noticed their skin felt nourished and looked more radiant. Long-term results showed that 97 percent of users experienced a reduction in wrinkles, while 100 per cent reported tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
Pimples & Acne Resurgence
Menopause can also trigger a resurgence of pimples and acne due to hormonal changes. MONAT’s BE PURIFIEDTM System $341 targets these concerns by absorbing excess oils while keeping skin hydrated. The system is made up of Be Purified Cleanser, Be Purified Oil Free Moisturiser, Be Purified Cold Charcoal Mask and Skin Revitalizing Essence. In clinical trials:
- 94 per cent of users agreed the product cleansed without drying
- 97 per cent reported that it absorbed oil and mattified skin effectively
- After just seven days, 100 per cent of participants noticed a reduction in pore size.
Easily Irritated Skin
A decrease in estrogen can lead to a weakened skin barrier, leaving the skin more vulnerable to irritation. MONAT’s BE GENTLETM System $450 includes the Be Gentle Creamy Cleanser, Skin Revitalising Essence, Rewind Age Control Nectar and Be Gentle Nourishing Moisturiser and provides a soothing and hydrating solution, formulated with naturally based ingredients to protect and restore the skin’s moisture barrier. After just 14 days of use, 100 per cent of participants noticed an improvement in skin brightness and texture, with more even skin tone.
