Stripes Beauty, the menopause brand by actress Naomi Watts, proclaims September 9 as its first National Hot Flash Day. This day aims to heighten awareness of menopause and its symptoms.
The brand is beauty and wellness-oriented. It was set up by Watts in 2022. Later in June, it was taken over by L. Catterton, a company that invests. It has a primary aim: to eradicate the stigma, the shame, and the anxiety tied to menopause. Their solutions include:
Vaginal wellness products, checked by science. Skincare and haircare for women experiencing hormonal changes.
Naomi Watts shared her thoughts: "We are thrilled to present National Hot Flash Day. Our goal is to foster an open talk on menopause and its symptoms."
"A woman's natural phase of life should be embraced," Watts further explained. "We are setting up a day. We plan to shed light on the hurdles women face."
The event at Stripes Beauty to celebrate the day involves an ice cream pop-up. It will be in Bryant Park. The park is on the corner of 42nd Street and Sixth Avenue. If you are in New York, you can visit. You can learn about ways to manage hot flashes and menopause symptoms.
Also, you can enjoy free Van Leeuwen ice cream. There are product samples for 'The Cool Factor.' It is a 3-in-1 ultra-cooling and calming face milk. The product soothes hormonal change symptoms.
Stripes has a product online. This bundle is exclusive and called "Keep it Cool." The product is called 'The Cool Factor.' Then there is 'The Inside Addition,' a menopause symptom supplement. Finally, there is 'The Dream Date,' a sleep-boosting supplement. The cost is 95 US dollars. No New Yorkers can get in on this deal.
But Stripes is global. Dr. Somi Javaid has something to say. She is a board-certified OBGYN. She is also a female sexual health expert. Today marks a turning point. It is in our comprehension and strategy for menopause. Hot flashes are more than just fleeting moments of heat.
They can be draining. They affect sleep, mood, and daily life. National Hot Flash Day is aimed to acknowledge these substantial obstacles. It also seeks to provide important resources. These are meant to help women navigate menopause. Women of all backgrounds. With confidence and awareness.
