Menopause Skin Glow-Up: Estrogen Loss, Skin Fitness, & Routines That Actually Work
Episode 6
Wednesday, 19 November, 2025

Your skin didn’t suddenly “forget” how to glow—its inputs changed. Laura sits down with renowned aesthetician and founder of Skin Diva Labs & Bella Reina Spa, Nancy Reagan, to unpack why estrogen loss dries skin, slows cell turnover, and triggers jawline breakouts, and how a smart mix of training, treatments, and toxin-light routines brings radiance back. We get specific about the fitness-skin link: how strength training preserves facial fullness, why overdoing cardio without enough protein can hollow the face, and the reason that oxygen-rich blood flow after a workout mimics a mini facial from the inside out.Nancy breaks down barrier-first routines that actually work in midlife: gentle cleansers, consistent but non-harsh exfoliation, and humectants plus lipids. We go beyond buzzwords to clarify “natural” vs truly low-tox care, and why fragrance, dyes, and certain salon exposures can quietly inflame sensitive, menopausal skin. • estrogen decline slowing cell turnover and moisture• lifestyle toxins overwhelming the barrier• exercise increasing oxygen and nutrient delivery• balancing cardio with protein to protect facial fat• microcurrent improving facial muscle tone• smart exfoliation for body and face• microneedling with peptides, exosomes and PDRN• vegan, barrier-first skincare for sensitivity• natural vs clean claims clarified• hormonal acne triggers and hygiene habits• reducing everyday chemical exposure• resilience, gratitude and consistencyOn the pro side, Nancy favors classic microneedling over RF and explains how peptides, exosomes, PDRN, and NAD-supporting actives can meaningfully improve texture and firmness. She also discusses microcurrent to train facial muscles so the skin sits higher, offering a thoughtful alternative to defaulting to injectables.We also touch on bioidentical hormone therapy, emphasizing personalized dosing guided by labs to restore moisture and resilience, not a one-size patch. Practical fixes abound: clean your phone and pillowcases, wash brushes, adjust detergents, lift heavier to fight sarcopenia, and fuel with adequate protein to protect your face. The message is simple and powerful—consistency. Small, steady choices across movement, nutrition, and skincare compound into a confident, ageless glow.If this conversation helped you rethink your routine, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a midlife skin reset, and leave a quick review to help more women find it.Find Nancy Reagan & Bella Reina Spa & Skin Diva Labs:Website: https://bellareinaspa.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skindivalabs/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@skindivalabsThank you for listening to the Connected Body Podcast.
