Why Your Skin Looks Dry, Thin & Crepe-y in Perimenopause

Have you looked in the mirror lately and thought… why does my skin suddenly look different?

Not just a little drier...but thinner, duller, and less plump. Suddenly, your favorite moisturizer isn’t doing much good anymore!

If that sounds familiar, you’re not imagining it. This is one of the most common changes women notice in perimenopause...and there’s a reason for it.

For years, estrogen was quietly supporting your skin behind the scenes:

• Helping build collagen (what gives skin firmness and structure).
• Supporting natural hydration from within.
• Helping maintain a healthy skin barrier that locks moisture in.

As estrogen starts to decline, all three begin to shift at the same time.

That’s why skin changes in perimenopause can feel like they happened overnight!

Your skin may feel drier, look less radiant, or develop that crepe-y texture that seems to appear out of nowhere.

But it isn’t just about finding the “perfect” moisturizer.

Your skin is changing from the inside out...which means supporting it from the inside matters too!

That’s why nourishing your body becomes such a powerful tool.

Your skin is constantly renewing itself, and the raw materials it uses come from what you eat:

• Protein provides the building blocks for collagen. Prioritizing protein helps support skin structure, repair, and healthy aging.
• Healthy fats support the skin barrier. Foods like avocado, olive oil, nuts, seeds, and omega-3 rich fish help to keep skin feeling nourished.
• Colorful plants deliver antioxidants. Fruits and vegetables provide nutrients that help protect skin and support collagen production and healthy aging.

Products can help support your skin…but food helps support the foundation. 💚
