Perimenopause can be TOUGH in a lot of ways, including on the skin. Acne, rosacea, fine lines, loss of firmness – almost overnight! When my skin got worse, I WISH I had known that perimenopause was behind it. This video discusses how to mentally and practically deal with the changes, or at least how I have been dealing with them. Because perimenopause is a state of change, I am sure that my skincare will also adapt over time. But this has what's been helping me so far.

Sunscreen that doubles as my moisturizer (I have oily combo skin – I don't think it would be enough for dry skin)
