Getting older doesn’t have to mean wrinkles, fatigue and dull-looking skin. There are many anti-ageing products available that it can be hard to know where to begin - and when. We have a wide range of collagen supplements to help enhance your skin's natural glow by helping to prevent collagen loss as you age. Keep reading to discover how our collagen supplements should be an unmissable step in your anti-ageing skincare routine.
What Causes Collagen Loss?
From your diet to your lifestyle, there are many factors that can contribute to collagen loss. However, one of the most prominent causes of collagen loss is ageing.
As we get older, our body’s production of non-essential amino acids needed to make collagen (glycine, proline, hydroxyproline and arginine) starts to decline. This can result in collagen loss, as the body is breaks down more collagen than it can supply.
Why You Should You Start Taking Collagen Supplements
Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins in the body. When this protein is in short supply, you might want to introduce collagen supplements to your routine.
To enjoy the benefits of collagen, you should introduce collagen supplements into your routine at any age between 20 and 30.
Taking collagen supplements at this age can help provide you with the non-essential amino acids needed to make collagen.
The Benefits of Collagen Supplements
The main causes of fine lines and wrinkles can be due to collagen loss through ageing. However, having sufficient levels of collagen, can help to support your skin’s health.
How to Add Collagen Supplements to Your Anti-Ageing Routine
Vital Proteins Collagen Supplements are super easy to add in your routine and provide you with a whole range of benefits. However, if you’re looking for collagen supplements specifically with anti-ageing properties, we recommend our Vital Proteins Beauty Collagen.
Available in two delicious flavours - Tropical Hibiscus and Watermelon Mint, these beauty collagen powders feature our signature grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine collagen peptides, alongside hyaluronic acid and other essential nutrients your skin needs more of as you get older.
There’s no set rule as to what step you should incorporate beauty collagen, but to kickstart your anti-ageing routine, we recommend adding our beauty collagen just before you cleanse. Simply add two scoops of your desired flavour of beauty collagen powder to your smoothie, coffee, tea or water, and enjoy pampering your skin with the next steps of your skincare routine to follow.
