Menopause can bring big changes to your skin as falling oestrogen levels affect moisture, collagen, and sensitivity. You may notice dryness, redness, fine lines, or even breakouts. This happens because oestrogen supports hydration, elasticity, and the skin’s barrier — and without it, skin can feel more fragile and reactive. Whether you manage this change naturally or with HRT, the key is to treat your skin with kindness and simplicity rather than harsh, chemical-based products.
