Hydrolyzed collagen is a broken-down form of collagen (a structural protein found naturally in skin) that is designed to be absorbed by the body when taken as an oral supplement. It works by providing amino acids that may support your skin's natural collagen production and structure.
Benefits
May reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
May improve skin hydration and moisture retention
May enhance skin elasticity and firmness
Science: Two systematic reviews and meta-analyses (2021 and 2023) found that oral hydrolyzed collagen supplementation produced measurable improvements in skin wrinkles, hydration, and elasticity compared to placebo, with benefits typically observed after 90 days of consistent use. Studies involved over 1,100 participants across multiple randomized controlled trials.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule found in your skin that acts like a sponge, holding water to keep skin hydrated and plump. In skincare products, it helps improve skin moisture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and support overall skin texture and firmness.
