If you’re a woman in your 40s or 50s, the hormonal changes of perimenopause can create challenges for your skin. With a change in hormones, particularly when estrogen drops, the protective skin barrier becomes weaker. This means your skin can become more sensitive and skin texture may change where acne, rosacea and eczema can become more common. Glowing and vibrant skin isn’t just about what you put on it, but also what you feed it. Our skin is a reflection of our internal health, and during perimenopause and menopause due to the increased inflammation, nutrition is important in keeping your skin hydrated, resilient, and less inflamed. Understanding these changes and how nutrition can support skin health is key to maintaining a radiant, healthy complexion during...

When it comes to beautiful skin its easy to focus on beauty from the outside in when its just as important to focus on beauty from the inside out. Your skin is not just a layer, its an organ and is an amazing indicator of what is going on inside your body - specifically your gut health. A lot of skin conditions from acne, dry skin to redness are a manifestation of our body’s internal needs, particularly nutritional ones. If our body is not getting the nutrients it needs or digesting food properly due to poor gut health, our skin wont receive the support it needs. Also if we are not detoxifying properly the skin will suffer. This can affect skin elasticity and collagen production resulting...
