October is National Menopause Awareness Month, and while the month may be wrapping up, millions of women continue to navigate this hormonal change every day. I chatted with Natalie from Tampa Bay Morning Blend to introduce a few innovative products to support women during this transformative time.
Restore collagen to skin, bones, and joints with Revive, and this little sachet doesn’t stop there. It’s packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and even retinol.
Revive Collagen
PRICE: $54.99
SHOP: @us.revivecollagen.com
Women lose an extra 30% of collagen in the skin during the first 5 years of menopause – Revive Collagen Enhanced Plus has a potent dose of 10,000mg hydrolyzed type1 marine collagen (closest to human type 1) which works to help boost collagen production from the inside out whilst enhancing skin elasticity with added Retinol. With consistent daily use, you can expect to see results in just 6 to 8 weeks. Joint pain is common during menopause, and many women experience accelerated bone loss (10-20%)* loss– supplementing collagen can be a great way to support bone and joint health during this time. With added vitamins B6, B12, C & D, Revive Collagen can also help to boost your energy and reduce tiredness and fatigue. It’s the ultimate all-in-one beauty & wellness shot for the menopause! These liquid sachets have up to 95% absorption rate and are 20x more powerful than a pill or powder and are easy to take on the go with their ready-to-drink sachets. Made with no artificial colors or flavors, free from soy, gluten, dairy, GMO, lactose and added sugar.

If you’re like me, nothing smells like it used to. Hormones have made all of my favorite fragrances smell a bit funky. This perfume was made for this stage of life. It’s even got a clever name. Because sometimes we need to pause through the hormonal rollercoaster. The scent is bright and light.
Abel Pause
PRICE: $130.00
SHOP: @us.abelfragrance.com
Co-created by Abel Founder Frances Shoemack and French Perfumer Dr Fanny Grau, Pause is a response to their own journeys of hormonal change. Saddened by a society in which Perimenopause (the period of hormonal change typically experienced by women in their late 30s to late 40s leading into Menopause itself) is only discussed as a signpost for being devoid of vitality, the two women wanted to offer a bold response. Everything Pause embodies, from the rich floral scent profile to the vibrant bottle design reflects their mission; to bring confidence and sophistication to this stage of womanhood.
