Neovadiol Serum for Perimenopause and Postmenopause.

"This is a dual face serum that is specifically formulated for perimenopausal and menopausal skin that helps to improve skin density, firmness, hydration, and basically all the things that's happening to our skin due to loss of estrogen. It's a lightweight but still nourishing serum with a blend of oil and water, so it helps to nourish but does not feel heavy or have that greasy and shiny look. Ingredient-wise it has Proxylane, which is derived from sugar and is unique to L'Oreal's line of products. It helps to reduce glycation and helps to boost skin firmness and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also has plant-derived extracts along with vitamin B3, niacinamide, vitamin C, and vitamin E to prevent oxidative damage on skin. What I really love is omega-6 and omega-9. These lipids are really essential for our skin barrier health, but because with age we're losing out on that, having that in the skincare can really help to reduce that dryness and better support our skin barrier restoration."

"This is new from Vichy, it is a serum marketed for people peri and post menopause with omegas. Omega fatty acids are helpful for the skin barrier and replenishing lipids in the skin and helping with lipid barrier integrity. Cassia extract may be anti-inflammatory. It has niacinamide, which is anti-inflammatory and good for hyperpigmentation and redness. Tocopherol is vitamin E. It has Scorpio glucoside, which is a stable form of vitamin C, but whether or not it improves collagen is questionable. It also has caffeine, which can help temporarily de-puff and brighten up the under eye area. It has urea in it, which can be hydrating and soften and smooth the skin. Shea butter is going to help reduce water loss. Capital oil salicylic acid, that is a L'Oreal ingredient, goes by the name LHA. It's like a modified form of salicylic acid that can more precisely exfoliate and improve the look of skin texture and dark spots. They market this to menopause and perimenopause age groups because, I don't know, it seems like another antioxidant serum with a gold package."
