Supporting skin during menopause and beyond
How menopause can affect your skin, from dryness to visible changes in firmness, elasticity and radiance.
What changes can happen to the skin during menopause?
Dr Dagmar Bässler:During menopause, oestrogen levels gradually decrease. Oestrogen plays an important role in many processes within the skin, including those associated with collagen, skin lipids and moisture.
As these hormonal changes occur, skin may become drier and feel more delicate. Changes in firmness and elasticity can also become more noticeable, while fine lines and wrinkles may appear more pronounced.
The complexion can also appear duller or less radiant than it did previously. These changes are a natural part of this stage of life, but adjusting your skincare routine can help care for your skin's changing needs.
How can the Contouring Face Care range support skin during menopause?
Dr Dagmar Bässler:At Weleda, we developed the Contouring Face Care range with the changing skincare needs of mature skin in mind.
During menopause and beyond, many women notice changes in how firm, smooth and radiant their skin appears. They may also find their skin feels drier and want skincare that provides nourishing moisture while addressing visible signs of ageing.
The Contouring Face Care range helps improve the appearance of skin firmness and elasticity, visibly smooth the appearance of wrinkles and leave facial contours looking more defined.
With regular use, the range provides targeted cosmetic care for mature skin, helping it feel nourished and comfortable while supporting a smoother, firmer and more radiant-looking complexion.
What is special about the Contouring Active Ingredient Complex?
Dr Dagmar Bässler: The active ingredient complex combines extracts from three distinctive plants: blue gentian, edelweiss and centella asiatica, also commonly known as tiger grass or gotu kola.
Blue gentian and edelweiss are alpine plants specially selected by Weleda and combined with centella asiatica, a plant with a long history of traditional use.
Together, these botanical extracts form Weleda's unique Contouring Active Ingredient Complex and are incorporated into formulations developed specifically for mature skin.
The result is targeted facial care that helps improve the appearance of firmness and elasticity while leaving skin looking smoother, more radiant and facial contours more defined.
