About this episode

Check out my top picks for skin care here.

If you're in your 40s or 50s and wondering why your skin suddenly feels different or why the products and routines that once worked now fall flat, you're not alone. In this episode of THE SKIN REAL, I sit down with fellow board-certified dermatologist Dr. Jen Haley to discuss the changes that happen to our skin during midlife.

We talk about why the goal shouldn’t be “anti-aging,” but rather aging well with intention, knowledge, and realistic expectations. We explore how hormonal shifts, lifestyle habits, and internal health impact your skin more than any expensive cream or trending procedure. And most importantly, Dr. Haley shares practical tools and mindset shifts to help you feel confident and in control of your skin again!

This episode is for anyone tired of the hype and looking for honest, expert advice on how to care for your skin in midlife and beyond.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why trying to “fight aging” is a losing battle—and what to focus on instead
  • How to work with your body (and hormones) in midlife to support healthy skin
  • The overlooked lifestyle factors that impact your skin more than any serum
  • Why confidence, energy, and purpose are the real markers of beauty
  • Simple, dermatologist-approved strategies to care for your skin in your 40s and 50s
