Why collagen is a skincare essential

Collagen is a bit of a skincare buzzword. You've probably heard it used on fancy TV ads and in glossy magazines, but what is it and does it actually work? Here's the lowdown.

What is collagen and why is it important?

Collagen is found naturally in the body and acts as a building block; a structural protein supporting our skin, muscles, bones and cartilage. Our natural levels are bountiful when we're young, so our skin is firm and plump. When collagen breaks down, the skin loses elasticity, however, we can help to top the levels back up and stay looking young.

How collagen supplements work

Our natural collagen production requires amino acids in our fibroblast cells. This is exactly why Kollo uses a hydrolysed marine collagen (a form that has been broken down into molecules that can be easily absorbed into the body) to deliver the essential amino acids to our fibroblast cells. This helps to kick-start collagen production, naturally.

Collagen supplements are best taken in powder form, mixed with water to make a drink. Due to fact that they use marine collagen, many people believe that they'll have a fishy taste, but fear not! The Kollo Liquid Collagen taste is amazing, making it super easy to take your daily shot.

Skincare benefits of collagen

There's no denying that collagen is a must-have in any anti-ageing skin regime. In just 4-6 weeks, daily doses of Kollo can help with everything from minimising the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and easing acne, to plumping and rejuvenating dull, tired skin. In fact, this multi-benefit beauty supplement also supports healthy skin and nails!

Which collagen is best?

There are lots of collagen drinks out there, but not all were created equally. Kollo premium liquid collagen not only contains 10,000mg of high-grade marine collagen peptides in each dose, but it’s also infused with a collagen-boosting cocktail of vitamins, including C, B1, B5, B6, B12 and l-lysine. This well-researched formula has undergone clinical studies to ensure its effectiveness.
