As the saying goes: “You don’t have to suffer through it.” Fashion stylist Janice Meredith shares a selection of products to help make menopause smooth sailing for women. These products were created to help you sleep, stop sweating, and SO much more! Just take a look.
Let’s start with all of that time we spend in bed…

- Introducing a silk pillowcase helps maintain the moisture in our hair while regulating temperature
- Helps maintain the natural oils and reduces friction that comes with harsher cotton pillowcases. That friction was known to cause breakage and tangles.
- We have long known the benefits of silk for hair and this is a reminder to add it to our routines to help
Menopause has been known to alter your gut biome. Digestive issues are connected to the change in progesterone. Beauty products have grown to include ingestible and the knowledge that the status of our gut directly correlates to our skin.
