Forget about figure :razz: ...wrinkles are hardly noticeable though I am 40...thanks to using eye cream early. I stick to basic skincare...use eucerin eye cream in the day and body shop for the night. Sun block as well...but my freckles are from young.

augmum, I know about this. But I still try it out in case got miracleErr....U ladies really find the effectiveness of oral collagen ??
I am very sceptical abt taking oral collagen which can be intergrated into our skin framework when digested.....
Till now, this lacks of scientific proof....
As long known .....Collagen is a big, complex molecule....too large to penerate
the epidermis and get into the dermis of the skin when applied on the skin.
When taken orally, it will just be digested like normal protein into amino acids....
Yes, it will be absorbed into the body but not to intergrate to the skin to form the collagen matrix...
Unlike collagen fillers where it can be directly injected to the skin of affected areas....
Some yrs ago, i ever asked a renowned dermatologist in SG abt the doubts on oral collagen.
Her reply was it is useless to take oral collagen to replenish loss of collagen fr the skin.
Nevertheless, collagen will do good to joints and tendons, etc....
Her reply was in line with medical journals fr molecular biologist /scientists where one can easily google to read the facts on collagen....
PS the above is merely for sharing what i heard and read, have no interest in debating. I also wish that we can simply replenish the loss of collagen fr our skin by simply taking it orally, that'll be easy peasy.... :rahrah:
on hot days, they are really nice to eat - cold and sweet. Yum! -
Collagen is supposed to improve elasticityβ¦like birds nest can improve complexion. Most importantly, eat more home-cooked mealsβ¦that helps.
Even if drinking birds nest but eating out every meal, it is not healthy either.
Brands collagen with that Kyoto grapes tastes so refreshing. -

Meantime, might as well take foods which can induce our bodies to produce own collagen.....
