As women approach menopause, typically starting in their 40s, fluctuating hormone levels—particularly a decline in estrogen—begin to impact the skin. These changes can weaken the skin's protective barrier, reduce elasticity, and lead to dryness, dullness, and fine lines. Additionally, elevated cortisol levels during menopause may accelerate "inflammaging," causing the skin to become more sensitive and prone to sagging.

YYS skincare products are specifically designed to support mature skin through these transitions, helping to maintain hydration, boost elasticity, and protect against aging factors.

Estrogen and progesterone levels begin to fluctuate significantly around 5–10 years before menopause, typically at around the age of 40. The most pronounced decline in estrogen production occurs during menopause.

Estrogen plays a vital role in skin processes such as: 

• Keratinization
• Ceramide synthesis
• Collagen production
• Hyaluronic acid levels
• Microcirculation
• Melanin synthesis
• Sebum secretion
• Skin renewal
• Immune response

A decrease in estrogen levels weakens the skin's protective barrier function and its ability to defend against free radicals. Additionally, connective tissues become drier and stiffer, while the skin's oxygen and nutrient supply, as well as the removal of cellular waste and other toxins, diminish.

How does this manifest in the skin?

The skin becomes thinner, loses elasticity, and appears duller. It also becomes drier and more prone to fine lines.During menopause, cortisol levels often increase. Elevated cortisol can accelerate a process known as "inflammageing," which is ageing associated with chronic low-grade inflammation. As a result, the skin may sag, dry out, and become more sensitive.
