#Me_NO_pause: Embracing my most mature, youthful self
Menopause should not mark any “pause” for a woman, except for the fact that she is no longer in her reproductive age! This is because she is in one of the most productive and creative phases of her life, with experience and knowledge, and she should enjoy this period of maturity without taboos, without feeling that menopause defines some kind of "end of an era". The dynamic slogan for every woman is #Me_NO_pause!
Entering a new normal phase of life
Menopause is a normal period in every woman's life, despite the transformation that occurs in her body due to hormonal changes. One organ that is gradually but visibly affected during this phase is the skin, which undergoes many changes due to these hormonal fluctuations. The main changes are due to the decrease in oestrogen levels, which affect the texture, hydration, and elasticity of the skin.
What happens to our skin during menopause?
In addition to oestrogen, there is also a decrease in collagen production: this means that fine lines and wrinkles become more visible, as does sagging, because our skin does not produce enough collagen.
Photoaging - which is cumulative due to our exposure to UV rays - now becomes more apparent, with annoying visible signs of uneven pigmentation.
And what should we pay attention to in skincare?
The most important thing before determining our skincare routine is to understand that skincare is not about age but about skin type, and addressing specific needs.
As Dr. Villy Rodopoulou, Plastic Surgeon - MD, FEBOPRAS, emphasizes, "Many of the skin's needs during menopause can be addressed with advanced treatments that we apply with incredible results at Kosmesis, helping to slow down the aging process. However, what every woman should faithfully follow is the daily homecare routine, using medical-grade skincare products, which effectively address existing skin problems, provide radiance, and protect the skin from future damage, while also slowing down the aging process. For an improved skincare routine, I have designed a highly targeted medical-grade line, the Signature Skin Care Line, which includes specific, effective products for menopausal skin needs."
The beginning of everything is proper and gentle cleansing
The clean skin canvas is freed from excess oil and dirt and is ready to receive the beneficial ingredients of skincare products. The essential step, morning and evening!
A gentle cleanser that respects the pH of our skin is the Crystal Clear Foam Cleanser with Active Oxygen O2, a facial cleanser based on active oxygen that deeply cleanses the skin, clearing the pores of excess sebum.
Super-Power serums
These miraculous serums contain a high concentration of all the beneficial ingredients for our skin.
We apply a serum, according to our specific needs, to the entire face, neck, décolleté, and the outer sides of our palms.
We recommend 2 unique, award-winning serums in year's PRIX DE BEAUTÉ, which you can even apply together, morning and evening:
👉 Hyaluronic Acid Serum for Hydration. The No.1 need of the skin during menopause is hydration! A hyaluronic acid serum moisturizes and quenches the skin. The Hyaluronic Acid + Niacinamide Signature Serum, with a rich composition in Hyaluronic Acid of different molecular weights, penetrates even the deepest layers of the skin, providing complete hydration and maintaining the skin's moisture at normal levels throughout the day, while promoting cellular regeneration.
👉 Vitamin C Serum for Renewal and Against Hyperpigmentation. The Vitamin C + Ferulic Acid + Alpha-Arbutin Signature Serum is a "drop-by-drop rejuvenation treatment"! It stimulates collagen synthesis. It helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles, corrects the skin tone, combating hyperpigmentation caused by the sun. Thanks to its antioxidant, anti-aging, moisturizing, and whitening factors, it makes the skin radiant and youthful.
The sensitive area around the eyes
The Eye Rejuvenation Signature Treatment is a revolutionary formula for renewing eyelids that offers immediate tightening, transforming the special and very important area around the eyes. It achieves the ideal balance between collagen composition and its breakdown. It aims to correct imperfections by stimulating circulation. It combats puffiness and excess/loose skin around the eyes, while brightening dark circles and smoothing fine lines. Its daily use, morning and night, guarantees exceptional results, providing a firm, revitalized skin around the eyelids and a more youthful appearance.
Light yet deeply moisturizing cream
After a hydration layering with these serums, we need to lock in moisture with the appropriate moisturizing cream. We recommend the Age Defence Signature Cream Serum, with Anti Progerin Factors & Phospholipids. It is a unique moisturizing, anti-aging cream-serum with a light texture, enriched with brown algae for deep hydration and antioxidant protection. Rubber rapuntil root extract provides toning and tightening, while avocado oil dramatically nourishes and restores the skin's natural protection. Powerful Vitamin E, along with phospholipids, strengthens the skin's resistance to stress factors, while the aspergillus enzyme helps renew cells for healthier skin. Ascophyllum algae extract soothes the skin, protecting it from oxidative stress damage, while phormidium persicinum extract protects against pollution hazards. Spirulina and sesame seed extracts deeply reinforce the skin's layers, improving its texture and elasticity.
Skin whitening
The Skin Whitening Signature Treatment, with Hexylresorcinol & Vitamin E, is a scientifically proven whitening treatment, especially designed to effectively address hyperpigmentation, photodamage, and skin discoloration. With its powerful antioxidant properties, Hexylresorcinol combats free radicals, making skin tone more even and giving it more radiance. Enriched with Vitamin E, Avocado Oil, and Shea Butter, this treatment intensely hydrates, promotes skin elasticity, and reduces fine lines. Experience the transformative power of Skin Whitening Treatment and combine it with C + F Superpower Serum for even more impressive results.
Magic Exosomes are your new weapon against aging!
The Exosomes Neck & Decollete Cream, the therapeutic product for facial, neck, and décolleté rejuvenation with Exosomes, that we call a "facelift in a bottle," becomes a must for any woman who tries it from day one! A medical-grade product, enhanced with Exosomes to accelerate skin reconstruction and renewal and redefine the concept of aging. Leveraging the power of hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C, and alpha-linolenic acid (Omega-3), this revitalizing treatment focuses on the sensitive area of the neck and décolleté but can be used on the entire face for more mature skin.
Sun protection: Your skin's most faithful ally, both in winter and summer!
While sunscreen may be the last step in the morning skincare routine, it's the most important one, every day, all year round, whether it's sunny, cloudy, or snowy. A sunscreen with a high protection factor is a crucial ally in preventing premature aging and skin malignancies that solar radiation can cause. Always apply a sufficient amount to the skin.
👉 Tinted Sunscreen Face Cream Spf50+ with its delightful scent, offers full protection from UVA & UVB solar radiation, as well as from the harmful effects of free radicals. Thanks to its special composition, it creates a waterproof protective film on the skin. With a discreet touch of colour, it adapts to every skin tone.
👉 Sun Safe Skin Film Spf50+ (clear, no colour) is a waterless gel with high broad-spectrum (UVA & UVB) protection for the face and neck, with Tocopheryl acetate (Vitamin E), Organic Pomegranate Oil, Natural A-Bisabolol & UV Filters. It acts as a protective film that becomes one with the skin, offering a unique silky texture.
