No7 skincare is well-known and adored for offering effective formulae at affordable pricing points when it comes to the top high street beauty. You will understand exactly what we’re referring to if you were one of the 37,000 people who signed up for its Line Correcting Booster Serum waitlist or if you can recall the line for Protect and Perfect Serum.No7’s new menopause skincare line debuted this week.
The four-product line was developed with input from more than 7,000 menopausal women and is part of the company’s 20-year partnership with the University of Manchester. It is made with ingredients intended to address the skincare issues most frequently associated with perimenopause and menopause.
What effects does menopause have on skin?
Did you know that fluctuating hormone levels can also affect your skin? It’s no secret (at least to anyone who has gone through it) that the years leading up to the menopause bring a rollercoaster of changes for your body and psyche.
The collagen that keeps skin supple and bouncy can begin to diminish as your body’s supply of oestrogen does. And that’s not all—as oestrogen levels fall, the body produces fewer lipids and ceramides, which serve to keep moisture in the skin and shield it from outside aggressors. Oestrogen has a natural anti-inflammatory impact, which makes skin less able to withstand any external aggressors that do get beyond the barrier of protection. Skin becomes extra sensitive, stiffer, thinner, and more easily damaged as a result. It also takes longer for skin to repair and balance itself.
It should come as no surprise that some of the most common symptoms experienced by women during this time include dryness, dullness, irritation, and redness. These are also the side effects that No7’s menopause skincare concentrates on the most. No7’s new line of products is made with revitalizing botanicals chosen with menopause skin concerns in mind, ranging from a Nourishing Overnight Cream that repairs and rehydrates while you sleep to an Instant Cooling Mist to soothe your skin during hot flashes.
