Collagen may be naturally abundant in our skin when we’re young, but as we age our body’s collagen production decreases - and that’s when we start to see fine lines, wrinkles and a loss of elasticity creep in. Luckily, topical collagen skincare offers a non-invasive yet effective way to rejuvenate and revitalise ageing skin.

The perfect companion to ingested collagen supplements, collagen-based skincare works externally to further enhance the skin's youthful appearance and texture. With continued use, topical collagen also works to stimulate collagen production within the skin, activating fibroblasts (aka the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin) to noticeably improve skin firmness and promote hydration for more plump, supple, and radiant skin.
