The term collagen crops up continually in conversations about anti-ageing products, but how does it relate to home facials and what is it?
Collagen, is a protein, which operates as a key component of connective tissues, it plays an important role in the resistance and consistency of the inner layer of the skin. As a result it critical to the strength, elasticity, and texture of the skin.
As we age, collagen production decreases (typically after the age of 25) resulting in the connective tissue of our skin is weakening: the skin collapses and wrinkles are created.
Collagens enriched lotions and creams help hydrate and moisturize the the outer layer of the skin and helps stimulate natural collagen production.
Collagen enriched skin care products help retain the water , maintaining the outer layer of the skins normal hydration, helping the skin to appear revitalized with reduced fine lines and wrinkles.
It is something that can be used as part of an every day home facial routine
A great product is Elemis Pro-collagen Oxygenating night cream available from the beauty store
