How can topical estrogen be integrated into a practical skincare routine?

Here at Alloy, integrating topical estrogen into your skincare routine is both practical and highly effective, especially for women in perimenopause and menopause. Our M4 line, powered by prescription-strength estriol (a gentle yet effective form of estrogen), is designed to address the hormonal changes that lead to dryness, loss of elasticity, and fine lines.

Here’s how you can easily incorporate topical estrogen into your daily routine:

  1. Cleanse: Start with a gentle cleanser to remove impurities.
  2. Apply M4 Product: Use your chosen M4 product—whether it’s the M4 Face Cream Rx, M4 Face Serum Rx, or M4 Eye Cream Rx—on clean, dry skin. These products can be used alone or layered, depending on your skin’s needs and your texture preference (the cream is richer, the serum is lighter).
  3. Moisturize: If you need extra hydration, follow with your favorite moisturizer.
  4. Sunscreen: In the morning, always finish with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher.

You can use M4 products in the morning or evening, and they’re fully compatible with other skincare favorites. If you want a comprehensive anti-aging approach, consider pairing M4 with Tretinoin Face Cream Rx for surface renewal and deeper collagen support.

Clinical studies show that Alloy’s M4 Face Cream Rx can improve skin elasticity by 88%, hydration by 70%, and overall skin health by 68% in just 12 weeks. Estriol works locally on the skin, so it’s safe for daily use and does not impact blood estrogen levels.
