What
Is Collagen?
Collagen is one of the most important proteins
found in the human body and makes up 75% of
protein found in the skin. Collagen provides
the skin with resilience to withstand stretching
and punctures. As we grow older, collagen production
slows down and loses its flexibility and capacity
for absorption. The skin becomes thinner and
you will start noticing the appearance of wrinkles
and drier skin.
Natural science - the
BioCol range... contains soluble
marine collagen and is processed by using a
unique and patented method, which preserves
most of its moisture retaining properties. It
is obtained from the collagen tissue of tropical
warm-water fish. The fact that it is soluble,
enables it to penetrate into the deeper layers
of the skin and help replenish the body's own
collagen stores while at the same time stimulating
collagen production to enable tissue renewal.
Improvements are seen in the smoothness and
firmness of the skin and lines become less visible.
Award

sensitive skin and will prevent dry skin,
repair blemishes and treat epidermal blotches
caused by sun exposure. It's calming and
anti-bacterial properties make it also

congested or dilated pores.

Marine Collagen Night Serum...formulated

aged, dehydrated and sun-damaged skin,
and also soften scar tissue. It will leave
your skin smoother, firmer, with fine
lines less visible and a natural glow.

own right containing a high amount of
soluble marine collagen (approx. 30%)
