Hydrolyzed Collagen & Peptide Scar Minimising Concentrate (30ml)

Hydrolyzed Collagen

Collagen is a complex long-chain protein that acts like ‘glue’ for your entire body, keeping everything together. Even though the majority use animal-derived collagen sources, research suggests that plant-based sources can effectively lead to collagen building. Our plant-based hydrolyzed collagen builder is an effective blend of sea-buckthorn, a rich source of Omega 7 that boosts collagen production increasing skin elasticity, antioxidant rich acai berry and acerola cherry – a powerhouse of Vitamin C that helps produce collagen quickly and effectively.

Peptides

Peptides are short chain amino acids that form fragments of protein – the fundamental building blocks of skin. Peptides are able to penetrate the top layer of the skin and send ‘signals’ to boost collagen and elastin when you need it. This helps in plumping up the skin, smoothening fine lines and restoring a healthy skin barrier, promoting overall skin regeneration.
