Our last archive on Collagen was an important one. The duo darlings of Collagen and Elastin do not stick around forever, leaving a slow decline with age.
Your skin is made up of 75% collagen, and by age 49, your body has lost 15% of its natural collagen storage, and it will continue to lose more without your attention ...So listen up ladies!
Understand Your Beauty Biology
We’re big believers in the 80/20 rule when it comes to your skin’s aging process. While we’re all genetically disposed to certain skin and aging issues, 80% of your skin’s appearance is dependent on external factors. Day to day lifestyle choices determine how efficiently your personal biology replenishes collagen and elastin production

COLLAGEN AND VITAMIN C
Is your adrenal health causing wrinkles? Vitamin C is crucial to the production of adrenaline. It's why after pumping so much adrenaline during stressful times or an enthralling kiss from your lover-boy, you'll have drained much of your vitamin C reserves.
Vitamin C is also key to the production of collagen, the glue-like protein that makes up 30% of your body's protein. Wrinkles are just one indication of the lack of sufficient vitamin C, which tends to deplete over time as stress, toxins, and pumping adrenaline sucks up your reserves.
The Benefits of Collagen and Vitamin C Together...It's Critical, Darling.
The bioavailability of Ester-C indicates it's the #1 form needed over any other vitamin C. It’s metabolites help improve its absorption and instant tissue uptake so it can go to work.
An Orange Simply is NOT Enough.
Studies show that by directly applying vitamin C topically to the skin, you will benefit 20x’s more than orally ingesting through supplementation alone (but still critical).
Why You Should LOVE Vitamin C Ester.

As the weather warms up, you might need a Gentle Cleanser to cleanse away dirt and makeup without drying out your skin.

The sun, wind and environmental toxins can all strip your face of its natural oils, which leaves your skin vulnerable and chasing free radicals . The right kind of oils replenish the top layers of aging skin to help it retain moisture and protect. Depending on the molecular weight - face oils go enter the dermal layers to deliver nutrients and help maintain a dewy and healthy epidermal barrier.

#4 Moisturize with Vitamin C Esters

#5 Stay Protected against the number one Aging Catalyst.
Year-round sun damage is the leading cause of the symptoms of early skin aging, damage, and skin cancer. In fact, UV exposure accounts for 90% of these symptoms. Repeated damage causes persistent inflammation, and damage from the sun typically doesn’t show up until years later, when the damage is already done.
