Jo's Menopause Skin Support Kit
This kit is formulated to support skin experiencing the unique challenges of hormonal fluctuations and peri/menopause. These targeted, evidence-based products address dryness, fine lines, uneven tone, and loss of firmness, helping restore clarity, resilience, and comfort.
C Forte (standard) or Gentle Glow (sensitive variant)
-
C Forte – A 16% L-Ascorbic Acid serum that brightens dull skin, reduces pigmentation, and supports collagen production.
-
Gentle Glow – A PHA-based serum that smooths, hydrates, and brightens while reducing fine lines and pigmentation, making it suitable for those who prefer a lower-strength alternative.
Repair+ — A barrier-repairing moisturiser enriched with ceramides, niacinamide, and panthenol to restore hydration, strengthen the skin barrier, and calm dryness linked to hormonal shifts.
Zinc Shade — A broad-spectrum physical sunscreen with zinc oxide to protect against UV-induced pigmentation and photo-ageing.
Ultimate A Gold (0.1% retinal, standard) or Ultimate A (0.06% retinal, sensitive variant)
-
Ultimate A Gold – delivers a higher concentration of Retinaldehyde (0.1%) for powerful cell turnover, collagen stimulation, and fine-line reduction — ideal for those accustomed to Vitamin A.
*Ultimate A Gold (Retinal) may transfer onto white or light-coloured fabrics. For best results, we recommend using darker clothing or surfaces to avoid visible marks.
-
Ultimate A – Retinaldehyde 0.06% to deliver similar anti-ageing benefits at a gentler strength, making it suitable for those needing a lower concentration.
Both variants help maintain hydration, reduce fine lines, and improve uneven tone while defending against environmental stressors. The Standard Kit is ideal for those comfortable with higher-strength actives, while the Sensitive Kit offers a gentler alternative without compromising results.
Description
Balance hormonal changes with this system of evidence-based products that hydrate, brighten and strengthen your skin.
Evidence
Retinal
Also known as Vitamin A, Retinal is a next-generation retinoid used in skincare to help refine skin texture and improve the appearance of uneven tone and visible signs of ageing. It’s well tolerated and suitable for most skin types, including those that find traditional retinoids too harsh.
Niacinamide
Also known as Vitamin B3. Niacinamide is a well-studied ingredient that helps maintain a healthy skin barrier and supports an even-looking skin tone. It is well tolerated and suitable for all skin types, making it a versatile addition to many skincare formulations.
L-Ascorbic Acid
Also known as Vitamin C, L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) is a well-studied antioxidant that helps improve the appearance of uneven skin tone and supports smoother-looking skin.
Vitamin E (α-Tocopherol)
Vitamin E is a well-studied antioxidant commonly used in skincare to help support an even-looking skin tone and maintain the appearance of healthy skin. It is often included in formulations alongside other ingredients, such as Vitamin C, for complementary benefits.
Emerging evidence
Ceramides
Emerging evidence suggests that smaller ceramides support the skin’s surface and help maintain hydration and the appearance of a healthy skin barrier.
Ferulic Acid
Ferulic acid’s emerging evidence suggests it can improve the effectiveness of Vitamin C and help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Hyaluronic Acid
The optimum size of Hyaluronic Acid for skincare is still a topic of research. Emerging evidence suggests that medium-size HA can support skin hydration and help improve the appearance of skin smoothness and plumpness.
Squalane
Squalane is a lightweight, saturated oil that’s naturally found in human sebum. It’s clear, odourless, and exceptionally stable. In skincare, squalane functions as an emollient, helping to soften and smooth the skin. It also assists in maintaining hydration and supports the absorption of other ingredients in a formulation.
Panthenol
Panthenol (provitamin B5) is a humectant - meaning it helps attract and hold moisture in the skin. Once absorbed, it’s converted to pantothenic acid, a naturally occurring compound in the skin that supports hydration and helps maintain a healthy skin barrier. It’s well tolerated and commonly used in products designed for sensitive skin.
