Is your skin unpredictable throughout the month?
It might be your cycle!
Here is how your skincare routine should adapt across your 28-day cycle:
💧 Days 1–6 (Menstrual Phase): Estrogen and progesterone are at their lowest, leading to a weaker skin barrier and dryness. Focus on soothing, deeply hydrating products and hold off on aggressive actives.
✨ Days 7–14 (Follicular Phase & Ovulation): Rising estrogen boosts natural collagen and hyaluronic acid. Your skin is at its barrier peak—calm, plump, and glowing. Resume your full active routine!
🌿 Days 14–28 (Luteal Phase): Progesterone climbs, triggering increased oil production and potential breakouts for up to 70% of women. Barrier permeability increases late in this phase, so prioritize gentle oil control and calming ingredients.
Note: Everyone's cycle is unique, so listen to your skin's individual needs! 🧖
