Let’s be honest - perimenopause doesn’t have the best PR team.
We hear about the hot flushes, the mood swings, the sleepless nights. What we rarely hear about is the strength, awareness and self-connection that rise quietly underneath it all.
Yes, perimenopause can be unpredictable. It's a wild ride that women are often silently trying to navigate this while juggling careers, families, and identity shifts. But it’s also an awakening - a moment to pause, tune in and finally start putting yourself first.
What if this shift was a call to reconnect?
Many women find themselves drawn to slowing down, tuning in and showing up for themselves in new, intentional ways.
The same goes for your skin. As oestrogen levels drop, you might notice dryness, sensitivity or a duller skin tone. It can feel unfamiliar and unpredictable, like nothing works anymore.
This isn't your skin misbehaving; it's evolving. And just like you it responds to kindness and care.
Your skin deserves support, not struggle.
This new season doesn't call for complicated routines or miracle cures. It calls for simplicity, nourishment, and skincare that feels like a daily act of self-respect.
Think:
• A silky balm that melts away the day
• A moisturiser that cushions your skin
• A ritual that restores you at the end of a long day
Because glowing skin isn’t just about chasing youth and what you put on your face, it’s about caring for yourself differently, and more gently, than before.
Here’s why this season is worth celebrating:
• You tune in. It’s a season that invites you to listen, to care less about what others think and focus on your needs, your energy, your skin.
• You simplify. No more 10-step routines, following hype and trends for the sake of it. Just thoughtful, effective skin care that works.
• You reclaim your time. Your skincare becomes a joy to use, not another chore on your to-do list.
• You say yes to what nourishes. Boundaries become clearer, inside and out. Less guilt, less people pleasing, because you can't pour from an empty cup.
• You glow differently. With radiance that comes from within - and gentle formulas that support it on the outside. Midlife isn’t about fighting age - it’s about stepping fully into who you are. And that includes how you care for your skin.
💛 The clarity in the chaos
Perimenopause might feel like a storm, but within that storm is clarity.
You begin to see what really matters. You set boundaries. You slow down - not because you’re giving up, but because you finally understand your worth.
As a 51-year-old woman, I understand the changes that come with this stage - because I’m going through them too. My own skin became drier, more reactive, and at times, unrecognisable. That’s part of what led me to create Pamoja.
From my training as a skincare formulator, I’ve found that what really helps hormonal skin isn’t hype - it’s hydration, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory support. These ingredients help your skin feel more comfortable, soothed, and nourished - less red, itchy, or inflamed.
You deserve to feel confident in your skin - not by ignoring the hard days and the challenges, but by embracing the changes. Because your skin, like you, is evolving. And that evolution deserves to be honoured.

I think this product is absolutely amazing and happy to be added as a review, I have used while perimenopausal now think entering the next phase. I purchase when I can but definitely recommend it’s so beautiful and natural. I found on a trusted well know website for treating skin during the menopause.
Thank you!
