Menopausal Skin
What is it and how does it change?
During the midlife hormonal transition, skin goes through significant changes across three key phases—perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause. Kari Gran products are designed to nourish, protect, and hydrate skin through these stages, with essential antioxidants and barrier-supporting ingredients.

Common skin conditions across menopause phases
Progressive Dryness and DehydrationEvolving from occasional dry patches in perimenopause to persistent roughness and flaking in postmenopause.
Accelerated Wrinkles and Sagging
Particularly noticeable around the jawline, neck, and cheeks as structural proteins decline.
Thinning and Increased Fragility
Skin becomes more delicate and prone to tears, bruising, and delayed healing.
Heightened Sensitivity
Sudden warmth and redness affecting the face, neck, and chest, which can exacerbate rosacea and sensitivity.
Hyperpigmentation
Age spots and uneven tone become more pronounced due to hormonal influence on melanin production.
Chronic Itching
Especially common on the limbs due to compromised barrier function and nerve sensitivity changes.
