Achieve 'radiant' and youthful skin during menopause with 'key' tips

Nutritionist Riya Lakhani-Kanji suggested managing stress, using the right products and staying hydrated are the keys to glowing skin.

She said: "Navigating perimenopause? Your skin deserves extra TLC during this phase.

"Hormonal changes can impact your skin's appearance, but with the right care, you can keep it radiant and resilient.

"During perimenopause, your skin may become drier due to hormonal shifts.

"Hydration is key to maintaining its elasticity and suppleness. Ensure you're sipping enough water throughout the day.

"Infuse your hydration routine with herbal teas like chamomile or green tea, which offer antioxidant benefits.

"Additionally, indulge in water-rich foods like cucumbers, watermelon and oranges to provide an extra dose of moisture to your skin."

​With lots of beauty products on the market, knowing the best ones for your needs can be difficult.

Opting for a moisturiser enhanced with hyaluronic acid will hydrate the skin and help keep it looking youthful, Riya said.

She continued: "Choose a moisturiser enriched with ingredients like hyaluronic acid to provide intense hydration. Hyaluronic acid helps your skin retain moisture, keeping it plump and supple.

"Apply your moisturiser both morning and night to maintain hydration around the clock."
