Perimenopause can be a real rollercoaster. And, Celeste Barber is done watching women suffer through it in silence. Or, with a pricey skin care routine that’s probably better suited to some of the 20-year-old influencers she hilariously parodies in her signature Instagram videos! Her solution (no joke) is to drop her Booie Beauty brand’s bold new Peri Range – two powerhouse products created with real ingredients for real symptoms and, most importantly, real women. All designed to support those navigating perimenopause and beyond.
As Celeste herself puts it, “We want you to cool down, not calm down.” And she means it. Because hot flushes, mood swings, crepey skin and hormonal curveballs aren’t just annoying – they’re real physical changes. But instead of hiding them under 12-step routines or miracle elixirs, Booie’s new Peri Range invites you to glow through it.
Your hormonal hype girls
1. Cool Your Jets – Rose Water Spritz
This isn’t your grandma’s rosewater. This is a handbag-ready, face-saving, mood-resetting mist that doubles as your personal air-con. One spritz and you’ve got black cohosh (used for centuries to soothe menopause symptoms), pomegranate (for that antioxidant boost), cucumber (because, spa vibes), calendula and rice bran, working overtime to chill your cheeks and reset your vibe. Got a meeting in five and your internal thermostat’s on the fritz? Cool Your Jets is your new best friend.
2. Smooth Operator – Body Balm
Perimenopausal skin tends to get a little… moody. One day it’s soft and supple, the next it’s feeling thin, dry and crepey. Smooth Operator is here to intercept that moment. Rich but never greasy, this whipped body balm features skin-loving actives like grapeseed oil (deep hydration), ribose (firming), and marine collagen (hello, elasticity). Served with a side of cocoa butter and cucumber spa scent, you’ll want to keep it in your bathroom, your bedside, and your back pocket.
The realest skin care you’ll ever meet
In signature CB style, Booie Beauty doesn’t do fluff. The Peri Range wasn’t cooked up in a boardroom – it was born from real conversations with real women. The ones who messaged Celeste in droves asking for products that get it. That know what it’s like to sweat through your sheets, feel like your skin’s aged a decade in a week, and cry because your toast burnt again. Hormones might be chaos, but your skincare doesn’t have to be.
These two products aren’t promising to erase every symptom. (If they were, Celeste would be launching them from a yacht parked on Mars.) But they are straightforward, effective, feel-good staples you can actually count on – whether you’re mid-hot flush or just feeling a little not-yourself.
More than products … It’s a movement
The Booie Beauty Peri Range is more than a pretty package (though, yes, the bottles are cute enough for a bathroom selfie). It’s a conversation starter. An invitation to show up exactly as you are, hormonal hiccups and all. Because getting older isn’t something to fix. It’s something to celebrate.
As Celeste says, “Perimenopause doesn’t need to look like a hot mess. It can look like Booie.” And with this launch, she and co-founder Claire Greaves are making sure women feel seen, soothed, and supported every step of the way.
So, whether you’re knee-deep in the peri journey or just starting to notice a few changes, Booie Beauty’s Peri Range is here to help you ride the wave – with less sweat and a lot more glow. Because while you may not be able to fix your hormones, with a little spritz and skin care slap you can feel fabulous anyway!
