I suffered with hot flashes and sleepless nights for too long. Alloy was SO easy and there was no “catch”. No membership or hidden fees. Just a few minutes online. I chose a pill but they also have a patch option. Copy and paste my code to save $25...

My crepey menopausal skin has improved so much since I switched to this skincare routine.

Use this after washing and before you moisturize. Pro tip: apply while your face is still damp.

Final step in my skincare routine. I use AM & PM and it has changed my menopausal skin completely.

I am from the thin over plucked eye brow generation. This has helped me get a full brow and lash back with ease.

Things I tried before HRT that I still love. Working with Alloy relieved all of my symptoms but I continue to use these items because I still benefit from them overall.
I take this nightly when my body is ready for bed but my brain missed the memo. It quiets that little voice replaying my mental load list and helps me to stay asleep, stay regular (if you know you know 💩) and relieves my muscle tension.

I bought a few heating pads but returned them all until this one. Perfect size, various settings, and a timer so you can fall sleep and not wake up with burns.
Heating Pad for Period Cramps & Muscle Pain
Hormones are weird. My go to deodorant stopped working. I experimented with a few before committing to this one. It has a light, feminine scent but works like it’s for a man.
DOVE WOMENS DEO Advanced Care Invisible Dry Spray 3.8oz
The texture of everything changes. This is my favorite hair serum.
