Collagen for the skin

We have large amounts of collagen in our bodies, with up to 70% of all collagen found in the skin.Collagen is a fibrous protein made up of amino acids in long lines that provide firmness, structure and elasticity. The body's own collagen production reaches its peak around the age of 25, then decreases with increasing age. When collagen production decreases, we start to see signs of aging such as wrinkles, dry skin, fine lines, etc. Younique contains 2.5 grams of collagen per sachet from the Verisol® brand. Verisol® consists of bioactive collagen peptides of bovine origin. Verisol® collagen has a clinically proven effect in increasing skin firmness and smoothing out wrinkles.

MSM

MSM stands for methylsulfonylmethane and is a natural organic source of sulfur. Sulphur is a mineral and is found in abundant quantities in the body with the greatest concentration in skin, hair and nails but also in bones, muscles and joints. Sulphur is an important part of collagen synthesis in the body and is thus important for the skin. Younique contains OptiMSM® which is an ultra-distilled MSM of the purest quality. OptiMSM® has a proven effect and makes the skin smoother and gives it more radiance!

Kisel

Silicon is a trace element and occurs naturally in the body. Silicon is a building block of collagen and thus plays an important role in the structure of the skin. Silicon is also a component of keratin and elastin, two other proteins important for the skin. Unfortunately, like collagen, levels of silicon decrease with age. Younique contains natural silicon from bamboo extract.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is an endogenous substance that is abundant in the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a special molecule in that it possesses incredible moisture-binding properties. A hyaluronic acid molecule can bind moisture up to 1000 times its own weight! Despite its name, hyaluronic acid is not an acid but a sugar molecule. Unfortunately, the body's own production of hyaluronic acid also decreases with age.
