LUX LIST: boost collagen production in your skin with these top products (including gin!).

Collagen acts as the glue that holds our bodies together and is the second most abundant substance in our body behind water and is the building block of our tissues. In our mid-twenties, our collagen production begins to decrease, this is what is known as the ageing process and is most noticeable in our skin and hair, whether it’s wrinkles, sagging skin, finer hair or grey hair. But the good news is, there are plenty of help out there to add collagen back to our bodies. Here are our top picks of products, that actual work, from snacks, supplements to skincare products to add collagen.

Collagen Snack Bites, Your Beauty Food

Is it possible to eat yourself gorgeous? The most effective way to look good on the outside is to boost your insides and collagen is your body’s natural ally since it tightens and rightens, seals and heals. If injections aren’t for you then eating collagen might be a better (and tastier) option. The yummy collagen snack bars from Your Beauty Food comes in two flavours; Choc chic and Peanut Butter and ar perfectly formulated to maximise collagen absorption.

The Verdict:

We love these little treats! Since these super-charged collagen balls are individually wrapped they are easy to pop in the handbag. The fact that they only contain 1.9% sugar and are gluten, dairy and soy-free make them a healthy option and good for anyone with allergies. The flavour is nice and the texture is rich which makes one snack bite go a long way.

Price: $39.95/ 12 pack

LUX LIST: Top products to boost collagen production in your skin

5 Second Nano-Collagen Boost Firming Eye Patches, Activlayr

The ActivLayr™ 5-Sec Firming Eye Mask from New Zealand consists of sustainably sourced high purity deep-sea marine collagen, with kiwifruit skin and sauvignon blanc grape extracts, and hyaluronic acid.

The Verdict:

It’s important to use plenty of the natural spring water that comes with the pack. The skin needs to be properly damp/wet in order for the collagen to come off the eye-patches and stick to the skin. The patches themselves are easy to apply and comes up easily if the skin has been correctly prepared. The result is quite astonishing and gives a lift-effect almost immediately. It also tightens the skin and leaves a nice smooth surface all around the eyes.

Price: $89.95

Vida Marine Collagen 30x3G Bluberry, Vida Glow

Replenishing collagen levels in your body with a natural supplement such as the Vida Marine Collagen, derived from the scales of ocean fish, containing no wheat, gluten, sugar, additives, preservatives or flavours as well as free from any heavy metals, toxins or pollution. The Blueberry marine collagen blend is a delicious option for those who want to add a bit of flavour to their collagen intake. Blueberries naturally contain lots of Vitamin C and the naturally occurring Vitamin C in Blueberry Vida Glow helps with the absorption of collagen in your system and is an essential component in the body’s production of collagen.

The Verdict:

The individual sachets are easy to bring anywhere. The flavour is nice and the powder can be mixed in anything (!) including plain water (hot or cold) to smoothies and juices. The convenience of the packaging in combination with the premium collagen and added vitamin C makes this a winner for us!
