Menopause skincare.

For skin in hormonal change.

During perimenopause and menopause, changing hormone levels can change how your skin looks and feels. Many women notice drier skin, less bounce, crepey-looking texture and a loss of firmness, sometimes quite quickly.

Skincare can't stop hormonal change. A targeted, consistent routine can support hydration, comfort and the appearance of firmness while your skin adjusts.

What changes.

And why.
Two women talking about their skincare
Real conversations

Oestrogen helps keep skin hydrated, plump and resilient. As levels fluctuate in perimenopause and fall through menopause, skin can make less collagen and hold less moisture, and the skin barrier can feel more fragile.

That's why a routine that worked in your thirties can suddenly feel like it isn't doing enough. The focus moves to hydration, firmness-focused care and barrier support, used consistently.

What women often notice

Everyone's experience is different. Changes can arrive gradually or seem to happen almost overnight, and they can start years before your periods stop.

What skincare can do.

And what it can't.

A targeted routine can support how your skin looks, feels and copes through hormonal change. Here's what that means in practice.

If your skin feelsA routine can support
Dry or tightHydration, comfort and a stronger-feeling skin barrier, so skin feels less tight through the day.
Thinner, crepey-lookingSmoother, softer, better-moisturised looking skin with consistent use.

More reactive than beforeComfort and barrier support. Patch test anything new, as skin can become more sensitive.

The honest bit

What skincare can't do

Skincare can't change your hormones, and it isn't a replacement for medical treatment such as HRT. If you're struggling with menopause symptoms, speak to your GP or a menopause specialist.

Skincare works alongside that, supporting how your skin looks and feels day to day.

Built with women

Listening first.

Built with women.

A fair question I get asked is what a man knows about menopause. On my own, not enough, and that's exactly why I don't do this on my own.

I speak to medical experts every day, including doctors who specialise in hormones. I also listen to women in our community every day about what perimenopause and menopause are doing to their skin. Those conversations shaped this routine, and we brought them into our pre-launch trial, which included women going through these changes.

My own experience of rapid body change is where ElastiK° started. This page, and the routine behind it, is built on what women have told us.

Menopause skincare FAQs.

Straight answers.
What is menopause skincare?

Menopause skincare is skincare built around the changes many women notice during perimenopause and menopause, such as dryness, less bounce, crepey-looking texture and a loss of firmness. It focuses on hydration, barrier support and the appearance of firmness and elasticity.

Why does my skin change during perimenopause?

Oestrogen helps skin stay hydrated, plump and resilient. As it fluctuates and then falls, skin can make less collagen and hold less moisture, so it may feel drier, thinner and less firm than before.

Can skincare reverse menopause skin changes?

No skincare can stop or reverse hormonal change. A consistent, targeted routine can support hydration, comfort and the appearance of firmness, helping your skin look and feel better as it adjusts.

Can I use ElastiK° alongside HRT?

ElastiK° Skin is topical skincare, not a medicine, so it's designed to sit alongside whatever treatment you and your doctor have chosen. If you have any concerns, check with your GP or pharmacist.

Is bakuchiol good for menopausal skin?

Bakuchiol is a plant-derived alternative to retinol known for its gentle profile, which makes it a good fit for skin that's become drier or more sensitive. You'll find it in Evolve Serum, Stage 4 of the routine.

Where can I use the products?

Hydration Continuum Gel can be used on the face, neck, décolletage and arms, and Collagen Architect Serum on those areas plus the abdomen. Regenesis Complex can go on any area that concerns you, using a small amount, and Evolve Serum can be used anywhere. Resilience Matrix Night Cream is for the face, neck and décolletage. Each product page lists its use areas.

How long does each product last?

With consistent daily use, each product lasts 12 to 18 weeks. If you use the routine across larger areas such as the abdomen or arms, you'll get through products more quickly.

Which ElastiK° product should I start with?

If you're noticing several changes at once, the Complete Skin in Evolution™ System gives you all five stages in one box, for as little as £1.59 a day. If one concern stands out, start with the product made for it: Collagen Architect Serum for softer, less firm-feeling skin, Evolve Serum for dull or uneven-looking texture, or Hydration Continuum Gel for dryness and tightness.
