In your 50s, skin starts to show its ‘character’ as damage done throughout your life becomes visible.

As you enter menopause, there is a significant drop in oestrogen and progesterone, resulting in skin becoming thinner and more fragile.

You may notice more wrinkles, uneven discoloration and a paler overall skin tone.

Hydration has never been more important. During the day, use a rich, protective moisturiser with sun protection. Before bed, pamper yourself with a nutrient-rich night cream.

Always use gentle, moisturising cleansers instead of soap. Because your skin is thinner, it burns easily.

Any time spent in the sun now will contribute directly to the signs of ageing.
