What's one of the biggest mistakes people in perimenopause make with their skin?⁠
⁠
They notice the sagging, the changes — so they want to hit it hard with products that really work. But here's the problem: during perimenopause and menopause, your skin becomes more sensitive.⁠
⁠
You want to introduce actives — vitamin C, retinoids, glycolic acid — but you need to do it in a way that won't irritate your skin.⁠
⁠
Honestly, skin cycling is a great approach if you're in perimenopause. Slow, strategic, effective.⁠
