The Products Dr. Colombo Uses to Support Skin Longevity
A strong skincare routine after 40 should do more than treat changes after they appear. The goal is to support the skin from multiple angles early, before they become harder to manage.
The right products help the skin stay supported through that transition. That is why Dr. Morgana Colombo’s Protocol is built as a multi-step approach. Instead of relying on a single product to do everything, it uses a simple, consistent system designed to help maintain skin longevity and stay ahead of visible signs of aging after 40. Each has a specific role: cleanse gently, restore hydration, support the barrier, protect against UV damage, encourage renewal, and address the visible signs of estrogen-deficient skin.
Here are Dr. Colombo’s skincare must-haves for morning and nighttime routines.
#1. The Wash
A gentle cleanser matters more than people think, especially when skin starts feeling dry, sensitive, or easily irritated.
The Wash is a gentle, foamy cleanser designed for all skin types, including sensitive and redness-prone skin. It cleanses without leaving the skin feeling stripped or tight. This is important because a damaged or weakened barrier can make everything else in your routine feel harsher.
Use it morning and night as the first step in the protocol.
#2. The Hydrator
After cleansing, the next step is hydration and barrier support.
The Hydrator is a lightweight moisturizer infused with hyaluronic acid and ceramides. Hyaluronic acid helps draw moisture into the skin, while ceramides help support the skin barrier. This is especially helpful when the skin feels drier than it used to be.
This step helps prepare the skin for the day and keeps the routine simple and consistent.
#3. The Dewy Tint Sunscreen
No routine for aging or hormonally changing skin is complete without sunscreen.
The Dewy Tint Sunscreen is a broad-spectrum SPF 40 tinted mineral sunscreen. It helps protect the skin from UV damage, while also acting as a primer, adding hydration, and blurring minor imperfections.
This step is essential because sun exposure can worsen visible aging. If the goal is healthier-looking skin over time, sunscreen needs to be part of your routine every morning.
#4. The Reverser I
At night, the routine shifts from protection to renewal.
The Reverser I is used two nights a week. It includes a gentle retinoid acid ester and a niacinamide ester. Retinoids can help support skin renewal, texture, and the appearance of fine lines, but more is not always better.
For skin that is already dry or sensitive, using a retinoid too often can cause irritation. Two nights a week give the skin renewal support without pushing the barrier too far.
#5. The Phytoestro Age Eraser
This is the core treatment step for estrogen-deficient skin.
The Phytoestro Age Eraser is the first of its kind. Without needing a prescription, you’ll gain access to a multi-action formula made with hyaluronic acid, peptides, antioxidants, plant-based growth factor kinetin, and phytoestrogen soy isoflavones. It is designed to help revitalize, renew, and deeply hydrate skin affected by estrogen decline.
#6. The Eye Neck Complex
The eye and neck areas often show aging early, so they need targeted support.
The Eye Neck Complex is a treatment for the eye and neck area formulated with antioxidants, peptides, an HPR retinoid, and the plant-based growth factor kinetin. When used consistently, it reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, laxity, and dryness. Our best-loved cream also delivers a brighter, more hydrated look.
This step helps keep the routine complete without adding unnecessary products.
The Full Protocol
The goal is not to overwhelm the skin. It is to give it what it needs consistently.
As a woman in menopause, Dr. Colombo wanted to create the right regimen for women starting in their late 30s who want to stay ahead of visible skin changes. It keeps the routine simple, with each product serving a clear purpose.
- In the morning, use The Wash, The Hydrator, and The Dewy Tint Sunscreen.
- At night, use The Wash, The Reverser I two nights a week, The Phytoestro Age Eraser, and The Eye Neck Complex.
