Your Skin’s Collagen Game Changes Over Time… Here’s How You Can Level Up!

However, when your skin loses collagen, you may notice a loss in its firmness and elasticity.

Typically, most people start losing collagen as they age. While it’s different from person to person, collagen loss can be affected by your genetics, lifestyle, and environment, and could even start in your 20s. According to the National Library of Medicine, once the process of collagen loss begins, you lose around 1% of collagen every year.

Collagen supplements come in various forms, be it pills, powders, or liquids, and work by stimulating your body to produce collagen on its own.

These supplements often contain hydrolysed collagen, which has been found to improve your skin’s elasticity and hydration after taking it for 90 days.

Try eating foods that are rich in amino acids, which are the building blocks of collagen. This could include lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy, beans, or legumes.

Additionally, you can consider incorporating vitamin C-rich foods too, as they are crucial for collagen synthesis.

We all know the importance of wearing sunscreen, which includes protecting your skin’s appearance and avoiding sunburn. However, what you may not know is that UV rays can penetrate deep into your skin and damage collagen fibres.

Using sunscreen can help safeguard your skin’s collagen from UV rays, preventing accelerated collagen loss.

Certain skincare ingredients have been shown to preserve collagen. For instance, vitamin C can help to protect collagen in your skin against UV damage, while also triggering collagen formation and stabilising collagen protein.

Did you know that chronic stress can contribute to the production of cortisol, a hormone that may negatively impact collagen levels?
