Menopause is a natural stage in every woman's life, but it often brings skin challenges due to hormonal changes. These can include dry, itchy skin, wrinkles, fine lines, loss of firmness, acne, redness, dark spots, and slower wound healing. In this post, I'll explain how menopause affects your skin and introduce our award-winning natural face oil designed to help.

Key takeaways

  • Menopause leads to skin changes like dryness, wrinkles, and acne due to lower oestrogen levels.
  • Our natural face oil helps hydrate, firm, and soothe menopausal skin.
  • Ingredients like argan oil and frankincense oils help with dark spots and healing.
  • Regular use can nourish and restore skin's natural glow.

How menopause changes your skin

During menopause, oestrogen levels drop, causing noticeable changes in the skin. Less oestrogen means less collagen and elastin, which leads to wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. Your skin also becomes drier and itchier. Hormonal shifts can trigger acne, redness, and dark spots. Additionally, your skin heals slower because of reduced production of proteins that repair damage. Understanding these changes makes it easier to care for your skin during this phase.

A face oil designed for menopausal skin

Amaranthine's natural face oil is a blend of botanical oils rich in vitamin E and omega fatty acids. It includes organic jojoba oil, argan oil, olive squalane, raspberry seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, and a signature mix of essential oils: frankincense, lavender, geranium bourbon, and sweet orange. This luxurious oil deeply moisturises, soothes, and nourishes your skin - perfect for your evening skincare routine.

How our face oil helps common menopausal skin issues

Dry, itchy skin

The omega-rich oils lock in moisture and create a protective barrier, keeping your skin hydrated and soft.

Wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of firmness

Hydrated skin looks plumper, making fine lines less visible. Omega fatty acids also support collagen production for firmer skin.

Menopausal acne and rosacea

Anti-inflammatory oils calm irritation, reduce rosacea skin redness and acne breakouts. Our face oil contains no less than seven anti-inflammatory oils!

Hyperpigmentation (dark spots)

Argan oil can help lighten dark spots by reducing melanin production.

Slower wound healing

Lavender, frankincense, and geranium essential oils promote healing and can help fade scars.

Customer testimonial

"I am loving the Amaranthine facial oil. I have sensitive, dry, eczema prone skin. I am now perimenopausal as well (drier, ageing skin, prone to small breakouts) and the oil has been amazing. So gentle and smells gorgeous, my skin feels nourished every evening. Thanks for the wonderful product." Louise M
