On this episode, we speak to the founders of Caire Beauty, Lorrie King and Celeste Lee. With fans like Carla Hall, Caire Beauty is quickly making its mark for midlife women.
As Celeste and Lorrie explain, 40 is when hormone decline for women accelerates and causes all kinds of unexpected change. At 50 aka menopause, the decline is fast and significant. This situation is different than ongoing photo aging (which is caused by the sun), it’s what happens to the actual structure of skin, meaning what your skin does when it produces fewer and fewer skin molecules and proteins over time. Caire 1) infuses key molecules into skin where it counts, and 2) activates your own body to make more skin cells. We also learn about the importance of hyaluronic acid for our skin and how it is not a one size fits all. 20% off with HOTFLASHES20.
