Managing Changes and Visible Breakouts

Perimenopause — the phase before menopause — can feel like puberty in reverse. Suddenly, your skin’s needs change, even if you had a clear complexion as a teen. You may notice increased oiliness, enlarged pores, uneven tone, or visible bumps along your jawline. For many women over 40, these shifts can be frustrating, but they are a natural part of your body's transition.

Why Skin Needs Extra Support After 40

As estrogen levels naturally shift, your skin may lose its usual stability. Increased sebum production can lead to congested pores and blemishes, especially on the lower face.

At the same time, lower estrogen levels mean reduced collagen and thinner skin, making it more sensitive to the sun and dark spots. That’s why a routine that targets both texture and radiance is essential.

Your New Botanical Routine — Balance is Key

Mature, blemish-prone skin needs balance, not stripping. DR.MESO® offers Canadian-made, pharmaceutical-grade solutions designed for skin at every stage of life.

Try this professional 5-step routine:

• Step 1 – Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild cleanser with the soft sponge included in DR.MESO® kits to maintain purity without irritation.

• Step 2 – Calm and Clarify: Use DR.MESO® Blemish-Prone Toner with niacinamide to soothe the skin, regulate oil, and improve the appearance of dark spots.

• Step 3 – Targeted Texture Refinement: Apply DR.MESO® Zip Gel (with lactic acid) to gently exfoliate and clear pores. For specific areas, our Blemish-Prone Spot Gel with tea tree oil is ideal.

• Step 4 – Hydrate and Restore: Even oilier skin needs moisture. DR.MESO® Balancing Cream with calendula soothes and supports the skin barrier without clogging pores.

• Step 5 – Daily Protection: Always apply a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your skin's clarity and prevent further uneven tone.

Observe. Adjust. Be Kind to Yourself.

Your skin is a reflection of your internal balance. Track your patterns, stay hydrated, and remember: skincare during this phase is about balance, health, and self-respect. DR.MESO® is here to help your skin reflect the strength and grace of your 40s and beyond.
