SKIN SCIENCE
Everyone talks about hot flashes and mood swings during menopause, but there’s a sneakier change that often gets overlooked—sun sensitivity. It can feel like your skin’s suddenly more prone to burning or developing dark spots, and no, you’re not imagining things! During menopause, your skin can become much more sensitive to sunlight. But with the proper knowledge and tools, you can safeguard your skin and maintain its health even into your later years.
Everyone talks about hot flashes and mood swings during menopause, but there’s a sneakier change that often gets overlooked—sun sensitivity. It can feel like your skin’s suddenly more prone to burning or developing dark spots, and no, you’re not imagining things! During menopause, your skin can become much more sensitive to sunlight. But with the proper knowledge and tools, you can safeguard your skin and maintain its health even into your later years.
01
The Science Behind Menopause and Sun Sensitivity
Hormone changes impact more than just your mood and temperature regulation; they significantly affect skin health and sun sensitivity. The decline in estrogen and progesterone can reduce the skin's ability to protect itself from UV damage, making it more vulnerable to sunburn and photoaging. Understanding how these hormones influence your skin is essential for managing sun sensitivity during menopause.
Estrogen and Progesterone's Role in Skin Health
Estrogen and progesterone are vital hormones influencing almost every aspect of your skin’s health, including:
- Promoting Collagen Production: Estrogen helps signal fibroblasts to produce collagen, making it an integral part of collagen biosynthesis and essential to maintaining skin elasticity and firmness.[1]
- Maintaining Skin Hydration: Estrogen helps keep the skin hydrated by regulating the production of natural oils.[1]
- Regulating Melanin: Estrogen and progesterone help regulate melanin, the pigment responsible for skin tone. A disruption of these hormones can contribute to hyperpigmentation like melasma, although the direct cause is not well understood.[1]
- Exhibiting Anti-Inflammatory Effect: Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, estrogen is vital to your skin's ability to fight skin inflammation.[2]

Thinning Skin: A Vulnerable Barrier
With the loss of estrogen and progesterone, menopausal skin experiences a significant reduction in collagen production. Women can lose up to 30% of their skin collagen in the first five years of menopause alone and 2% every year for 20 years after.[4] This rapid loss of collagen causes the skin to thin by about 1.1% per year, which is rather significant.[4]

Heightened UV Sensitivity: What’s Really Happening?
The combination of thinner skin and hormone-driven changes makes menopausal skin especially sensitive to UV radiation. UVB radiation, the radiation responsible for sunburns, can penetrate through the skin into the dermis much easier in thinner skin. This means that even minimal sun exposure can lead to an exaggerated inflammatory response, resulting in redness, hyperpigmentation, and increased risk of long-term skin damage.[2]The skin cells responsible for producing new skin, keratinocytes, also become less efficient during menopause. This slowed cell turnover makes it harder for the skin to repair itself after sun damage. Studies have shown that menopausal women are more prone to photoaging—sun-induced wrinkles, loss of elasticity, and pigmentation.[3]

02
Recognizing Increased Sun Sensitivity
During menopause, increased sun sensitivity can manifest in several ways, impacting your skin's health and appearance:
- Sunburn: Post-menopausal skin with sun sensitivity will burn much quicker with more intense sunburns. At the same time, the skin’s repair mechanisms can slow down and take longer to heal.
- Inflammation: Many women notice their skin becoming more prone to redness, rosacea, and other forms of inflammation post-menopause. This is because the skin’s inflammatory response is heightened and can become exacerbated by even minor sun exposure.[3]
- Hyperpigmentation: Estrogen and progesterone are a part of your body's ability to naturally regulate melanin production. Since menopause disrupts the body's natural balance of these hormones, sun exposure can lead to uneven skin tone and dark spots.[5]
- Rapid Skin Aging: Since collagen and elastin levels are already diminished during menopause, the skin becomes much more prone to pronounced signs of photoaging caused by UV radiation.[4]

Strategies for Managing Sun Sensitivity During Menopause
Just because you have sun sensitivity doesn't mean you have to avoid the sun. Here are some of the most effective strategies to help you manage your sun sensitivity:
Sun Protection
Sunscreen is one of the best ways to protect sun-sensitive skin from the damage UV radiation can cause. Using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30+ provides both UVA and UVB protection. Zinc oxide, the active UV filter ingredient in OneSkin’s OS-01 BODY SPF and OS-01 FACE SPF, provides excellent broad-spectrum protection and is safe for sensitive skin. Packed with the senescent-blocking OS-01 peptide and antioxidants, OS-01 BODY SPF and OS-01 FACE SPF help your skin repair the effects of aging.[6,7]Applying sunscreen daily—even on cloudy days—and reapplying every two hours is crucial for optimal protection. When used with UV-protective clothing and avoiding peak UV hours, you can still enjoy the outdoors without fearing harsh sunburns.

Antioxidant-Rich Skincare: Shielding from Within
Antioxidants are critical in protecting the skin from free radicals, unstable molecules generated by UV radiation. When topically applied, antioxidants neutralize the free radicals caused by sun exposure and intrinsic aging.Antioxidants like vitamin C, vitamin E, sulforaphane, and niacinamide can reduce inflammation, repair sun-damaged skin, and even help prevent the onset of hyperpigmentation like melasma.[8,9]

OS-01 Improves Epidermal Thickness
Thinning skin is one of the most significant contributors to heightened UV sensitivity during menopause. To combat this, our topical supplements, OS-01 FACE, and OS-01 BODY, are scientifically proven to improve epidermal thickness.[7, 10] This is likely due to the OS-01 peptide, which is also scientifically proven to increase epidermal thickness, promote cell proliferation, and support skin’s natural collagen production, helping your skin grow back thicker and stronger than before.[7, 10]

Shown in lab studies on human skin samples by measuring epidermal thickness of histology images. Skin treated with the OS-01 peptide displayed a significant increase compared to skin with no treatment. (Zonari, A., et al. npj Aging, 2023) Increase of +28% was measured on human skin sample from a 55 year old donor treated with the OS-01 peptide. Data was measured in triplicate. Note: In npj Aging publication,"Pep 14" = OS-01 peptide

By reinforcing the skin's natural barrier, this enhancement may help reduce sun sensitivity associated with menopause, offering better protection against harmful UV rays.

OS-01 Reduces Biomarkers of Inflammation
As your skin gets thinner, the inflammation caused by UV damage can become a significant source of skin aging and discomfort. By supporting the skin's natural repair mechanisms and targeting a root cause of skin aging, the OS-01 peptide lowers the level of a key inflammation-associated biomarker, IL-6, in skin[8, 11] In fact, after 12 weeks of using OS-01 BODY, participants experienced lower levels of circulating cytokine, IL-8, in their blood compared to baseline, demonstrating the intricate link between skin health and whole-body inflammation. [7]

OS-01 Can Reduce the Effects of UV Damage
UV damage can speed up the accumulation of senescent cells within your skin, increasing inflammation and making it harder for your skin to repair itself. During menopause, your skin becomes much more susceptible to this damage, accelerating skin aging. Luckily, our OS-01 peptide helps reduce and prevent UV-induced cellular senescence in the skin.

Shown in lab studies on human skin cells by measuring the number of senescent cells via SA-Bgal staining before and after UVB exposure. Skin that was treated with the OS-01 peptide displayed a significant decrease (42.5% less UV-induced senescent cells) compared to skin that was not treated.
