About

Your skin changes in midlife, and almost nobody explains why or what you can actually do about it.

Richard Parker is the founder of Rationale and a cosmetic chemist who has spent more than thirty years studying human skin, how it protects itself, how it repairs, and what shifts when hormones do. He is coming to Newcastle for one evening to talk about the skin of perimenopause and menopause with our very own Dr Shauna Watts.

Your ticket includes

  • A drink on arrival
  • Canapés and grazing table
  • Richard's talk, plus live Q&A
  • Gift on the night
  • Discount on Rationale products purchased on the night

What he will cover

  • How your hormones are impacting your skin, face and neck
  • Why you need to stop buying random products on Instagram & TikTok... you might be making things worse
  • What NOT to do to midlife skin, including the step most women add when they should be taking one away
  • What oestrogen was quietly doing for your skin, and what stops when it goes
  • Why your skin behaved itself for forty years then it suddenly turns dry, reactive, or starts breaking out again
  • Pigmentation, thinning and loss of firmness: what genuinely moves the needle, and what is a waste of money
  • The sun damage you got in your twenties that surfaces now, and what still makes a difference
  • How to read a label: the claims that mean nothing, and the ones worth paying for
