Collagen is often touted as the magical elixir of youth, and rightfully so – it plays a significant role in helping our skin appear smooth and supple.
Our skin is essentially supported by a dense network of collagen fibres, like how pillars support the roof of a house. These “pillars” help to keep our skin taut and essentially, youthful.
But as we age, free radicals from pollution, and UV rays due to sun exposure cause oxidative stress to our bodies. As a result, the collagen fibres in our bodies weaken, resulting in a loss of density and organisation of collagen fibres. This causes the structural framework of our skin to weaken, causing our skin to lose its suppleness and start to sag while giving rise to the appearance of wrinkles.
While we cannot prevent the natural process of aging from occurring entirely, we can always slow down the aging process with a boost or two, one way being in the form of Souleve collagen supplements.
Souleve collagen supplements contain 3 key active ingredients that help to promote collagen production and combat free radical damage:
1. Type I Collagen
While there are many different types of collagen, type I collagen comprises 90% of collagen found in our skin, hair, nails, and ligaments, making it the most ideal type of collagen to consume for your skin.
Manufactured in France, Souleve’s patented Type I collagen contains a proprietary blend of collagen peptides derived from fish skin. Scientific studies have shown that Souleve’s collagen supplements can result in:
- 20% improvement in facial skin firmness
- 11% reduction in wrinkle appearance around the periorbital region (eye area)
- > 90% user satisfaction regarding skin improvement
2. Blueberry Extract
Blueberry extracts are known to contain 1% anthocyanins, which are known to inhibit collagen degradation and protect against inflammatory responses that cause photo-aging.
3. Vitamin C
Apart from enhancing our bodies’ immune systems, Vitamin C is also crucial for collagen production and stabilising the collagen structures in our bodies. Vitamin C’s also good for reducing photoaging of our skin!
When taken together, this trio of active ingredients found in Souleve collagen supplements can help to reduce the appearance of aging and promote the growth of younger, firmer skin.
