Myth-busting: Vegan Collagen

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body – you’ll find it in our bones, tendons, ligaments, muscles and skin – a bit like the glue that holds everything together. It also keeps our hair and nails in tip top shape, and makes our skin look plump and healthy. That’s why it’s such a bummer that our collagen production declines as we get older (hello creaky joints and dull skin!), and why so many people turn to collagen supplements for a boost.

Unfortunately for our vegan friends, collagen supplements only come from animal sources. Despite what some companies try to claim - there is no true source of vegan collagen. This is why we created Beauty Boost Vegan Collagen Activator Capsules.

Rather than providing your body with animal-sourced collagen, our Beauty Boost capsules contain plant-based ingredients that help support your body's own collagen production, giving you major beauty benefits.

• Gotu Kola is an ancient herb well known and studied for helping to support collagen synthesis, maintain healthy circulation, and stimulate new cell growth – great news for your hair, skin and nails!

• Kerant™ (millet seed) is extracted from a variety of specially cultivated millet seed in France and is certified gluten free. It’s been scientifically researched and shown to help reduce hair loss. It also helps to restore your hair's healthy life cycle, leaving it stronger, shinier and healthier than ever before. Yes please.

• SkinAx2™. This powerful ingredient is formulated with Champagne Grape Seed Extract, French Melon Extract, Vitamin C and Zinc. An antioxidant-rich all-rounder, it helps support blood circulation to oxygenate, nourish and hydrate your skin; helping to reduce dark circles under your eyes, enhance your skin radiance, support collagen production and protect skin against pollution.

• Hyaluronic Acid is a substance produced naturally in your body, with roughly half of it found in your skin. It binds to water to help your skin retain moisture, but the bad news is that it naturally declines as you age. Supplementing with Hyaluronic Acid can help prevent this decline to support smooth, supple and hydrated skin.

• Biotin. This essential B vitamin has a host of benefits for your entire body, but we love that it supports hair growth and helps to get your nails into tip top shape.
