Ayumi Face Cream, Turmeric & Bergamot 100 ml

My name is Joyce, and I'm a hormone expert. I help women going through menopause pay attention not only to their hormones but also to everything they put on their skin every day. I selected this Ayumi Turmeric & Bergamot face cream because it fits well into a hormone-friendly skincare routine for women between the ages of forty and fifty-five.

Why I am offering this face cream

I only choose products I would use myself during a period of hormonal imbalance. This cream contains:

• I don't see any parabens, BHA, BHT, cyclic silicones or mineral oil
• I mainly see vegetable oils, fatty alcohols and mild emulsifiers
• I see active ingredients such as a vitamin C derivative and a peptide that help your skin look calmer and more even, without pulling on your hormone axis

The cream is therefore not a medical treatment and does not directly affect your hormone levels, but it is suitable for a bathroom in which you consciously make hormone-friendly choices.

Brand and origin

• Brand: Ayumi
• Product type: facial cream
• Contents: 100 milliliters

I offer this product through LunaVital because it aligns well with my criteria for hormone-friendly skin care, with a transparent INCI list and a focus on care rather than hard claims.

Benefits for you as a woman in menopause

From my analysis and experience I mainly see these advantages:

• Nourishing and restorative
  Vegetable oils, shea and fatty alcohols give your dry, tight skin comfort again.
• Support for dullness and blemishes
  The vitamin C derivative Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate and tetrapeptide 30 help your skin look fresher and more even.
• Hormone-friendly choice
  No parabens, BHA, BHT or cyclic silicones, and a preservative system that has been assessed as safe in low doses by European safety committees.
• Pleasant skin feeling
  The texture is rich without being too heavy, which I find pleasant for mature, often dehydrated skin in menopause.

My personal experience

I tested this cream with the glasses of a woman going through menopause. I noticed that it:

• provides instant softness and comfort
• goes well with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser
• works well under sunscreen during the day

If you have very sensitive skin or skin that reddens easily, I advise you to build up the use gradually, especially because it contains several essential oils and fragrances.

Usage

• Apply a small amount to cleansed face and neck morning and/or evening.
• Always combine with separate sun protection during the day.
• If you have very sensitive skin, start using it every other day and build up slowly.

Price and quality

I'd rather choose a slightly more expensive face cream with carefully considered ingredients and quality than a very cheap cream full of ingredients you'd want less of. In my opinion, this Ayumi cream offers a good balance between:

• an affordable price
• a largely vegetable composition
• active ingredients that benefit your mature skin

So you're not just investing in a jar of cream, but in a conscious choice for your skin and hormone balance.
