Boo to sagging
Your top priority now is to build collagen in order to maintain your skin's suppleness and elasticity. Serums and creams containing vitamin A (such as retinyl palmitate, retinol or prescription-strength Renova) will reduce the formation of fine lines, wrinkles and skin that has lost its firmness. Also, invest in a good quality vitamin C serum for an extra collagen boost.
Right supplements
Post-menopausal skin tends to get very dry, due to a giant drop in estrogen production. While you'll need to make a switch to a more emollient topical moisturiser or cream, you'll also need to make sure that your skin is able to retain that moisture by focusing on omega-3's and 6's in your diet. A higher intake of oily fish such as salmon and tuna, fortified eggs, flaxseed, and B vitamins will help your skin retain that moisture. Also, increase your water intake to keep your skin feeling supple and fresh, use gentle, non-irritating soaps and stay away from scalding-hot, long showers.
Restrict hair growth
That same drop in estrogen that dries you out also causes increased facial hair. Known as hirsutism, this unwanted hair growth can be tackled permanently through laser treatments, but people with sensitive skin or light-colored hair don't have that option. Dermaplaning gets rid of facial hair by removing the outermost, superficial layers of dead skin by gently scraping it away with a surgical blade. A bonus: Dermaplaning also gets rid of fine lines and even old acne scars in the process.
Keep glowing
Regular, gentle exfoliation sends a signal to the deeper layers of your skin to produce more collagen. However, don't go "scrub-crazy" since post-menopausal skin is sensitive--using a Clarisonic or washcloth when cleansing your skin at night should be good enough.
Mineral makeup
Shift to mineral makeup post-menopause. Minerals are made with high-quality natural ingredients and feels good on sensitive, post-menopausal skin. Also, "less is more" when it comes to make-up after menopause -too much can actually accentuate wrinkles and sagging skin.
Make friends with sunscreen
Irrespective of age, sunscreen is the only product that protects your skin from further sun damage and prevents age spots from developing.
