Did you know that collagen makes up to 70% of your skin’s protein and 30% of your body’s protein? It literally holds us together.

Collagen enhances skin elasticity making skin soft, supple and giving skin its youthful plumpness.

As you age, the production decreases, leading to fine lines, dullness, and loss of elasticity in the skin. Adding activated collagen to your beauty routine will help in regaining its elasticity and youthfulness.

Grab a cup of green tea, get comfortable & let’s dive deep into the world of collagen.

What is Collagen?

The term collagen arises from the Greek word ‘kolla’. You find collagen in the muscles, bones, tendons, and even your blood vessels. This super nutrient helps skin cells renew and repair themselves. When your collagen levels are high, your skin looks healthy & young.

Reasons why collagen declines

As you age, there’s a reduction in your collagen levels, decreasing about 1 percent per year after your early 20s.

UV rays, smoking, inflammation, diet, stress, and genetics are the other factors that deplete your levels of collagen.  UV rays damage the DNA of cells that produce collagen as well as increase free radicals.

Protecting yourself from the harsh UV rays could do wonders for your skin.

While you can’t do anything about genetics, you can apply serums with skin-nourishing nutrients, eat healthy foods, practice relaxation techniques to reduce stress levels, and avoid alcohol and smoking.

A healthy lifestyle and self-love can enhance your collagen levels.

Introducing activated collagen

What is activated collagen?

Shirley says “activated collagen is a pro-youth and firming ingredient that stimulates the high-quality synthesis of collagen.

It increases elasticity and firmness in the skin, helping to remodel the facial contour. Activated collagen is made from sustainable lupin seeds and stimulates the production of collagen.”

Activated collagen is a patented product obtained from organic plant protein. This ingredient is extracted from white Lupin seed coatings that are rich in a substance called Lupeol. Lupeol is famous for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

This botanical bio-active helps to increase the synthesis of type 1 collagen that provides elasticity and firmness to your skin.

Additionally, it works on a protein called HSP47 which vital for producing high-quality protein and protecting it inside the cell.
