Menopause and Skin – Changes and Natural Care

Menopause affects the skin in many ways. The decrease in estrogen changes the skin's structure, hydration, and elasticity. Many women notice their skin becoming drier, thinner, and more sensitive during menopause. Natural skincare products can support the skin during this transitional phase.

How does menopause affect the skin?

Estrogen maintains the skin's moisture, thickness, and texture. As estrogen levels decline, collagen production slows down, and the skin loses fluid more quickly. This is particularly noticeable on the face, hands, and neck, but also in the intimate area.

Common skin symptoms during menopause

• Dryness and tightness of the skin
• Itching without a visible rash
• Thinning and vulnerability of the skin
• Increased visibility of wrinkles and fine lines
• Dryness and stinging in the intimate area
• Increased sensitivity to products that previously suited the skin

Natural skincare during menopause

The skin's needs change – transitioning to a richer, more nourishing routine helps. Preservative-free and anhydrous products are a good choice for sensitive skin:

• Face: Luonkos Radiant oil cleansing cake cleanses and nourishes simultaneously. It is especially suitable for mature and dry skin.
• Body: Our Delicious and Vitality body oil cakes melt into the skin, providing deep hydration.
• Intimate area: Precious intimate cream is specially formulated for the delicate skin of the intimate area.

Dryness in the intimate area during menopause

Dryness in the intimate area is a common but rarely discussed symptom of menopause. The decrease in estrogen thins the mucous membranes and reduces moisture. Gentle care without fragrances or alcohol is important. Luonkos Precious intimate cream is made from pure vegetable oils and is suitable for daily use.

Additional tips

Adequate water intake, omega fatty acids in the diet, and sun protection help support the skin during menopause. If skin symptoms are severe, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
