The Importance of Collagen

Collagen is a structural protein that provides both support and elasticity for your skin. Approximately 80% of our skin is made of collagen and it is one of the most important features that contribute to a youthful appearance. As we age, the body’s ability to produce that vital support structure slows down and our skin begins to sag, forming lines and wrinkles. Therefore, collagen in skincare formulation plays a crucial role in skin health as it maintains skin’s firmness.

This new improved formula contains 10% more collagen for better skin absorption and elasticity. It is claimed that the collagen has been broken down to bioactive molecules by advanced technology that reaches deep within the skin to increase skin’s resilience and flexibility.
