New research has highlighted something I talk about all the time: skin ageing after 40 is not just about what we put on the skin. It is also deeply connected to hormonal changes, nutrition and oxidative stress.

This new 2026 review looked at collagen, curcumin and glutathione as supportive nutrients for women as oestrogen levels decline.

Why does this matter?

As oestrogen drops, women may notice:
✨ drier skin
✨ less firmness
✨ more fine lines
✨ reduced elasticity
✨ slower skin repair

Collagen may help support skin structure, curcumin has antioxidant and anti inflammatory properties, and glutathione plays an important role in protecting cells from oxidative stress.

This does not mean one supplement is a magic fix. But it does show why supporting the skin from the inside out is so important, especially during perimenopause, menopause and beyond.

Healthy skin after 40 needs more than a good moisturiser. It needs protein, antioxidants, blood sugar balance, hydration, sleep, stress support and the right nutrients.

This is the future of beauty: skin, hormones and health working together🌸

Delighted to be featured in the April 2026 issue of DERMASCOPE Magazine with my Meno Massage Method®.

The Meno Massage Method® was created to help beauty salons and spas better support women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond, not just with touch, but with a deeper understanding of hormones, the nervous system, stress, skin changes and whole body wellbeing.

It is more than a treatment. It is a full concept that combines massage, nutrition and lifestyle support for whole body wellness.

Women deserve to feel seen, supported and cared for during this stage of life, and I am proud to be helping therapists bring this level of menopause focused care into their treatment rooms.

Thank you to DERMASCOPE for featuring my work and helping shine a light on this important subject.

“I’m falling apart… and I don’t know why.”

This is something I hear from so many women.

And now, new phenomenological research is finally giving a voice to that experience
Looking at how menopause actually feels from the inside, not just the symptoms

The study found women often experience:

✨ Confusion and uncertainty
✨ Brain fog and reduced focus
✨ Emotional distress and overwhelm
✨ A feeling of not recognising themselves

Many also felt dismissed or unsupported, delaying the help they needed

This is why menopause is not just hot flushes
It affects your mind, your confidence and your sense of self

But there is something really important to take from this

With the right support, education and simple lifestyle changes, women can move towards clarity, resilience and feeling like themselves again

This is exactly why I do what I do 💗

And you deserve to be heard.

I’m delighted to share that I’ve been featured in London TV following the news that my book, Have a Magnificent Menopause: A Straightforward Guide to Looking Good and Feeling Great, has been shortlisted for the Business Book Awards in the Wellness and Wellbeing category.

This recognition means so much to me, not just personally, but for the wider conversation around menopause and women’s health.

For too long, many women have felt overlooked or unsure where to turn when it comes to symptoms like low energy, brain fog, weight gain, anxiety and sleep issues. My aim with this book has always been to provide clear, practical guidance that helps women feel more like themselves again.

A heartfelt thank you to the Business Book Awards for recognising this work and to London TV for shining a light on such an important topic.

Having a wonderful week working with the Nutritional Therapy students at the university of West London during their clinical practice exams.

It is always so rewarding to watch them move from theory into real world consultations, asking thoughtful questions, building rapport and beginning to think like practitioners.

I feel very privileged to be part of their journey as they grow into confident, safe and skilled Nutritional Therapy Practitioners who will go on to support the health and wellbeing of so many people.

For years, I watched women blame themselves 💗

They would say things like:

“I just need more discipline.”
“I should be able to lose this weight.”
“I don’t know why I’m so tired all the time.”
“I used to cope with everything, why can’t I now?”

But the more I worked with women over 40, the more I saw the truth 👇

This was not laziness.
This was not failure.
This was not a lack of willpower.

Their bodies had changed.

Hormones were shifting.
Stress was higher.
Sleep was broken.
Blood sugar was unstable.
Their nervous system was exhausted.

And yet they were still trying to live, work, eat and exercise like they did in their 30s.

That is why I do the work I do 💗

Because women need to understand their bodies, not fight against them.

When you know what is really going on, you can stop blaming yourself and start making changes that actually work.

Small changes.
Realistic changes.
Changes that support your energy, weight, mood, skin and confidence ✨

Your body is asking for a different kind of support.
