Collagen in skincare: Everything you need to know… and more!

In an ocean of ingredients and marketing gimmicks, many products are often misunderstood, including collagen. Your body naturally produces collagen; however, the amount of collagen in our skin, unfortunately, decreases as we age. Therefore, we need to consider different ways of adding soluble collagen to our diet and skincare routine to help maintain firmer-looking skin. Collagen can be applied topically or taken as a supplement.  

The Age Traveller explores the best way to promote collagen in your body and its overall benefits. He also shares some of his favourite products. Beauty comes from within, and collagen is one of the best-kept secrets for more youthful and fuller-looking skin. Take a peek at your current products ingredients list - how many of them contain collagen? 

Don’t forget that the best skincare regime for you is the regimen that works for you!
