SO, WHAT EXACTLY IS MARINE COLLAGEN?

Collagen

Collagen is a protein found both inside and outside our body.  It has the unique ability to absorb tension, required by cells to maintain their external structure.

Collagen takes up different forms: Type I and III are found in our skin while Type VIII is found in the linings of our blood vessels.  Type III collagen is present in young bodies and is the reason behind the youthful appearance of our skin. However, as we age, this collagen degrades and turns into the much harsher Type I collagen. This type I collagen is the reason for the appearance of wrinkles on our skin.

Although the degradation of Type I collagen is a natural process, certain factors such as smoking, excess drinking, pollution etc will help to accelerate the degradation of this collagen.  We can, of course, help to slow this process down by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and looking after our skin.

Marine Collagen

Collagen protein is also present in various marine organisms and can be derived from a substance found on  fish scales or seaweed.  The collagen matters produced, and thus collected, from these marine organisms are known collectively as marine collagen protein. Marine collagen protein is thought to be abundant in Type III collagen.

Our Marine Collagen is extracted from the natural seaweed variety Porphyra Tenera. It is exclusively gained from Non-GMO ingredients and it is free of any GMO-fragments. Our Marine Collagen is grown, harvested and processed within the strict principles of creating animal free products. It, therefore, does not contain any animal products.

Polypentides Techhnology

Marine Collagen has been available to take in capsule form for many years.  However, until quite recently, it hasn't been able to be used topically (applied to the skin). This is because the molecules of this product are much larger than our skin's pores, making it impossible for our skin to absorb.

This is where the technology comes into play!  A procedure known as polypeptides technology is used to push this marine collagen product into our skin thereby allowing the marine collagen protein to help your skin's ability to produce Type III collagen.

How it works  

This polypetides proceedure also encourages Elastin, a protein fibre found in the facial tissues, to thicken.

Elastin acts with the collagen to reduce the lines caused by ageing and improves the skin's appearance by giving the skin a healthy glow.

Marine collagen protein stimulates Type III collagen into enouraging the renewal process of the skin. This rejuvenation by Type III collagen reduces the muscle contractions responsible for the permanent change in our skin shape as we get older, thus giving your skin a much younger appearance.
