Finally, though, menopause has entered the national conversation,
What’s helped is having celebrities kick-start the conversation.
Take actress Naomi Watts.
Slammed into early menopause, she said she was ‘scared’ to talk about her menopause. She started a company around it anyway, calling it Stripes Beauty, a beauty brand aimed at ‘menopausal and perimenopausal’ women in 2022.
Explaining why she started the company, the talented actress/director said, “I created Stripes because we deserve support, solutions, and the space to figure it all out. Because while menopause may be part of midlife, midlife is a lot more than just menopause.’
For those new to this time of life, there’s a handy quiz that gives you much-needed info, plus a list of what products might help.
There’s the ‘Vag of Honor,’ an Intimate Hydrating Treatment ($50) made with all-natural ingredients.
We picked up the ‘Menopause Survival Kit’ (yes, we’re that old) with their top 3 bestsellers for $104.

 

Pick from their curated skincare line because it’s not just your vajaja that is getting dryer.

“Forget aging gracefully — let’s age comfortably” is one of the company’s mottos so let’s fully embrace that.
