Why skincare routines will benefit from collagen

IT isn’t surprising that a collagen supplement has taken a spot in the ever-evolving skincare routine. Before, the usual regimen involved only the basics such as cleansing, toning, and moisturizing. Then essences, serums, and face masks were discovered. These days, people looked more into tackling concerns from the inside out, with ingestible beauty supplements that instantly perk up dull skin.

Collagen supplements come in many forms and from different sources. Hydrolyzed collagen is collagen that has been broken down into smaller fragments to enhance its digestion and absorption by the body. Collagen is typically extracted from either bovine or marine sources. Marine collagen is primarily composed of Type I collagen. Another factor that needed to check on is the amount of collagen being taken. Several studies have shown that a daily dose of 2.5 grams could benefit skin health and hydration.

LifeFood Collagen Jelly is the latest in the supplement brand’s line of products. Every stick of this jelly supplement contains 2500mg (2.5g) of hydrolyzed marine collagen. It has litchi seed extract, pomegranate essence, and grape skin extract that contains resveratrol to help in maintaining skin moisture and firmness, preventing signs of skin aging like dullness and wrinkles, and reducing damage.

These natural ingredients’ strong antioxidant properties can also protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals that are triggered by daily exposure to sunlight, air pollution, and other environmental stressors.

Everyone can take it any time because it’s conveniently in a snackable jelly format. Apart from keeping skin healthy, another musthave benefit of this LifeFood supplement is that it helps nourish hair and nails with collagen to prevent brittleness and to ensure that they grow healthier.
