Aging is a natural process and with it, production of collagen, the most abundant protein in the body, slows down. But who doesn’t want to look young? While aging gracefully is beautiful, taking care of oneself to keep the youthful radiance is a bonus, ain’t it? Collagen boosters — oral supplements or skincare products — are the latest obsession. We have perhaps moved on from ‘but first, coffee,‘ to ‘but first, collagen’? Well, no one’s complaining! Collagen boosters enhance the hydration, elasticity, and general texture of the skin, encouraging a youthful appearance, and supporting the skin’s natural healing process.
