I'm 48, and somewhere in my forties during perimenopause my skin changed on me. Everyone said it was just aging, so I believed them for way too long and kept buying creams that did nothing. Then I went digging and found five different things actually aging my skin in menopause, all set off by one thing... my estrogen dropping. These are all five, and exactly what I did to fix each one, from the cells you cannot scrub off to the one bottle I built to handle all of it. Want Your Free Personalized Hot AF Plan? Take the quiz.

Things I Mentioned: ELTA MD. The sunscreen I wear every single day. Skinceuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2.The barrier-identical ceramides I use.
This one is for every woman who keeps getting told her only options are expensive procedures or aging gracefully. I'm a skincare founder and a clinical nutritionist, and I've spent $1.3 million figuring out what actually works on a face. First I get into what's actually changing under your skin, the senescent 'zombie cells' you cannot scrub off, the stress hormone that flips your collagen switch to off, and the dark spots that feel like they showed up overnight but really took thirty years. Then I walk through the fixes, the gentle form of vitamin C that won't burn thinning skin, how to actually rebuild a barrier that's started stinging instead of just painting over it, the hyaluronic acid most people forget about, and the one bottle I built to go at all five at once.

Under-eye filler was the wrong fix for almost everything I was actually trying to fix, and I found that out after years and a stupid amount of money spent on my own face. What most people call under-eye aging is really five completely different problems, hollowing, darkness, crepey skin, fine lines, and true bags, and filler is only built for one of them. This is exactly what I do instead now, and how to figure out which under-eye problem is actually yours before you spend a dollar.
