Menopause Survival Guide for Glowing Skin and Lush Locks

Let’s be honest: menopause can feel like puberty's revenge. The mood swings, the night sweats, the sudden skin changes, and the “where did my hair go?” moments — oh joy! At Ava Bella Day Spa, we understand.

But while your hormones may be on a wild rollercoaster, there are ways to stay glowing, grounded, and gorgeously-haired. Here are a few menopause coping tips with a little humor, a lot of heart, and some spa-worthy solutions.

Mood magic: Your brain isn’t broken, it’s just hormonal

Thanks to fluctuating estrogen levels, mood swings are part of the package. One minute you're ready to take on the world, the next you're sobbing because someone ate the last Girl Scout cookie. Coping tips:

• Move your body — just a little bit of exercise can boost your mood like magic.

• Practice saying “no” (without guilt!) to protect your energy.

• Try mindfulness or deep breathing. And if that doesn’t work, chocolate and a good rom-com can’t hurt.
  

Skin SOS: Stay hydrated and youthful

Estrogen helps keep skin plump and youthful. As levels dip, you might notice dryness, dullness, or fine lines creeping in. Don't panic — think of it as your skin just needing a little extra love.

Coping tips:

• Use a rich moisturizer with hyaluronic acid or ceramides.

• Exfoliate regularly to keep that glow going.

• Drink water like it’s your side hustle.

  
  

Pro Tip: Add a monthly HydraFacial to your self-care ritual — your skin will thank you, and you'll get that “I woke up like this” glow back.
