Let's take a look at the best collagen cures you can find at Oh My Cream that will (visibly) transform your beauty routine!
 

Collagen, the key protein for plump skin 

#seo: collagen cure

Why take a collagen cure?

Synthesized naturally by the human body, collagen is THE protein responsible for skin firmness and tissue cohesion. So, to keep your skin plump, you need enough sufficient quantities of collagen in the body. However, from the age of 25 onwards, the fibroblast (the cell that secretes the "support" fibers, including collagen), falls asleep and does a poorer job. And collagen fibers, less numerous in the body, lead to a loss of firmness.

To compensate for this natural loss of collagen, our skincare products contain marine collagen and other star active ingredients.our skincare products contain marine collagen and other star active ingredients to boost natural collagen production.. These include retinol, vitamin C, peptidesbut also acids, such as glycolic acid or lactic acid. These will strongly stimulate fibroblasts and thus increase collagen synthesis and production of collagen.

How long should a collagen cure last?

A collagen cure is recommended once or twice a year, for 1 to 3 months. But it all depends on your age and needs. If you're older, you'll need to take a longer course of treatment to replenish the collagen stocks already present in your tissues. You can also take collagen on a daily basis throughout the year, provided you have first identified your needs with a health professional.

Is a collagen cure an anti-ageing solution?

Before we begin this article, we'd like to make it clear that at Oh My Cream, we don't advocate anti-aging or anti-wrinkle at all costs , quite the contrary. Rather, our idea is to accompany the skin with specific treatments that will reveal all its beauty. And it's for this reason (and because we're firm believers in the power of "in & out" routines) that we decided to testthe collagen cure for you.

What did I like about this collagen cure?

"Its super-convenient stick format and above all its tasteless, odorless formula had no trouble blending into my morning routine: a stick mixed straight into my coffee! I was used to collagens with a very strong and sometimes disgusting taste and smell, but Combeau marine collagen powder is totally imperceptible, making it easy to adapt to our daily routine. You can easily slip the sticks into your bag for lunch at the office or a cup of tea during the day. It's practical, good for your skin, nails and hair!

What are the results of Combeau's tasteless, odorless collagen powder ? 

"I started my collagen cure mainly as an anti-ageing prevention at the dawn of my 30th birthday, but having an even complexion that sometimes lacks radiance, I could see a clear improvement after 15 days. My skin is brighter, less oily, my spots and scars have faded and my pores are tighter. What's more, the small wrinkle that has been marking my forehead for some time now is much less visible. My skin is more comfortable and radiant, but it's above all the benefits of this marine collagen powder on my nails and hair that have completely blown me away! Indeed, after 1 month's treatment, my nails are stronger, my hair shinier and growing much faster. I'm looking forward to continuing this tasteless, odorless collagen cure. "
