Is Taking Collagen Diet Supplements Or Applying Ultra-Pure Collagen Effective For Your Skin?

If you found this blog and article on the Internet you are probably looking at ways to improve your skin so you will look younger. You are beginning to see fine lines and wrinkles and you want to find the most effective way of eliminating them. You may be considering taking a collagen diet supplement in hopes of finding younger looking skin that way.

Or you may be looking at a skin anti aging product that tells you it contains ultra pure collagen and if you just apply it to your skin you will be younger looking in days or weeks. The problem with both of these scenarios is they don't work.

Let's look at collagen diet supplements a moment and see why you can't be guaranteed to see results in younger looking skin by popping them into your mouth. Collagen supplements contain a protein that is used in many parts of the body. Your skin is just one of the organs that need this in order to stay healthy.

Your major organs also need collagen to carry out their function of keeping you alive. In fact they will take what they need from collagen diet supplement before your skin can have any of it. So you can' be guaranteed that there will be any left for your skin, so that is not the most efficient route to take if you are trying to build collagen for your skin.

Now let's look at the ultra pure collagen products you can apply to your skin. These don't work because the collagen molecules are too large to penetrate the layers of your skin. At the most they will just moisturize the top layer, and that will not give you any results at getting rid of wrinkles and fine lines to keep you younger looking.

Manufactures of these ultra pure collagen solutions will tell you they work, but if you've tried them you will find they don't. If you want to waste your money on them, go ahead, but you won't find the results you want.

Instead, use skin care products that stimulate your skin to build more collagen. Natural ingredients like CynergyTK™, Active Manuka Honey, Phytessence Wakame, and Nano-Lipobelle H EQ10 a special form of CoQ10 that has the ability to increase collagen and elastin production in your skin will give you lasting results. You can find these ingredients in a line of skin care products from a company in New Zealand called Xtend Life.

Check out my website at http://www.skinantiagingsite.com/ to learn more about these products and leave the collagen diet supplements and the ultra pure collagen on the shelf. You will have the best results with these natural ingredients - you can say good-bye to your wrinkles and fine lines when you start using these products.
