How to take care of your skin during menopause

Everyone knows that children’s skin is the best and generally feels tender to the touch. However, as people age, many of their skills decline, and even their skin slowly ages. This is especially obvious in women during menopause, where the skin looks sagging and inelastic, which causes distress to some women who love beauty. So let’s learn how to take care of your skin during menopause.

1. Drink plenty of water

Water is the most important element in human metabolism. We must ensure that we replenish enough water and also keep our skin hydrated. This will reduce the oiliness that summer brings us and prevent water loss, keeping the skin fresh and clean.

2. Use sunscreen

In summer, it is not just young people who can use sunscreen. We older people should also use it, because sunscreen can protect the skin from burns by ultraviolet rays, moisturize the skin, and prevent moisture evaporation.

3. Get enough sleep

Although we all go to bed late now, some elderly people go out dancing, and some go out for a walk, but we also need to ensure sleep. Because the skin is exposed to wind and sun during the day, it needs repair and conditioning at night to replenish nutrients and repair damaged cells. If conditions permit, it is best to take a nap at noon, which can make your skin rosy and your spirit refreshed.

4. Regulate your emotions

Middle-aged and elderly people should also learn to love themselves, not focus all their attention on their children, and remain confident and cheerful. If we are always in a bad mood because of trivial matters or are nervous and depressed for a long time, it will lead to poor blood circulation in the skin and insufficient nutrition supply, which will make the skin pale, wrinkled and prematurely aged.

5. Pay attention to your diet

Nutrition is very important for middle-aged and elderly people because their physical fitness is not as good as before. At this time, we should eat more vegetables and fruits, which can help lower blood lipids. Drink less coffee, alcohol and strong tea. Also, don't eat too much salt to prevent your face from becoming dull. Foods like eggs, sesame seeds and honey are helpful in enhancing skin metabolism and can be eaten more.

6. Keep exercising

Nowadays, many middle-aged and elderly people like to exercise, which is a good habit. But it is best to choose the time between 4pm and 9pm, because plants release a lot of oxygen after a day of photosynthesis, which is conducive to exercise and beneficial to physical and mental health, but you should do it within your ability and not force yourself.

7. Eat foods high in estrogen

As we age and lose nutrients in our bodies, estrogen also quietly slips away from our bodies. At this time, we should eat more foods containing estrogen, because it plays a two-way regulatory role on the estrogen level in women. It can make the hormone levels of middle-aged and elderly women both sufficient and balanced, and keep them healthy and beautiful. We can eat more beans, sesame seeds, royal jelly, flax seeds, peanut butter, etc., which all contain estrogen.
