We tried and approved 3 different Collagen supplements
It's everywhere... Collagen is all the rage! We knew it in our creams and serums, but less so as a dietary supplement. However, taking it in the form of a dietary supplement promises to delay signs of ageing, address dehydration, and add shine to hair and strength to nails. So, we tested different marine collagen regimens over several months, and here are our opinions.
Precautions
Before starting this article, we wanted to emphasize that at Oh My Cream, we don't advocate anti-ageing or anti-wrinkle at all costs. Our approach is to support skin with specific care that enhances its natural beauty. That's why we decided to test collagen regimens.
What We Liked About This Collagen Regimen
"Its convenient stick format and tasteless, odourless formula seamlessly integrated into my morning routine: just mix a stick directly into my coffee! I was accustomed to collagen supplements with strong tastes and odours, sometimes overwhelming, but Combeau's marine collagen powder is totally imperceptible, making it easy to incorporate into daily life. I could easily slip the sticks into my bag for midday at the office or a tea break. Convenient, and effective for skin appearance, but also for nails and hair!"
Results of Combeau's Tasteless, Odorless Collagen Powder
"I started this collagen regimen mainly as an anti-ageing preventive measure at the dawn of my 30s. However, having a uniform complexion that sometimes lacks radiance, I noticed a significant improvement after 15 days. My skin is brighter and less oily, my spots and scars are faded, and my pores are tightened. Moreover, the small wrinkle on my forehead that has been bothering me for some time is much less visible. My skin feels more comfortable and radiant, but it's the benefits on my nails and hair that really impressed me! After 1 month of the regimen, my nails are stronger, and my hair is shinier and grows much faster. I definitely plan to continue this tasteless, odourless collagen regimen."
What we liked about this matcha marine collagen cure
“I've been using collagen as part of my routine for just over a year now, and this treatment was all the easier to take as I was already a regular matcha drinker. The stick format of Combeau Collagen is again ultra-practical and portable. The collagen is still tasteless and odourless and the matcha is very smooth and easy to drink (for those who are new to matcha, this is a good option ;)). I prepare it as I would a classic matcha: with sugar-free almond milk and a little water. The powder mixes very easily, unlike a classic matcha, so it's very practical when you don't necessarily have a bamboo whisk.
I started taking collagen about 1 year ago (as I was approaching 30), in particular for its benefits on the first wrinkles and fine lines, but also to find a more hydrated and plumped skin. Combeau Matcha Collagen is the easiest and most effective treatment for me to take, because in one stick, there's just the right dose of collagen to see results, and its combination with matcha makes it a drink I can happily drink every day!”
What are the results of this collagen stick cure?
“After 1 month's treatment, I'm seeing real results in terms of the radiance of my complexion and hydration. The fine lines on my forehead are much less visible. And I can say that in the last 1 month, my skin hasn't had a single blemish (even after the festive season, copious meals and chocolate). Last point: the hair. I've gained lots of little hairs at the roots.”
What Does It Do?
Thanks to its antioxidant-rich formula packed with minerals, this tasteless, odourless dietary supplement acts on hair growth, nail strength, and skin hydration. It stimulates collagen production and regeneration while protecting the skin from external aggressions. Moreover, enriched with marine collagen, it accelerates hair and nail growth, promotes joint health, and reduces inflammation in the body.
What Are the Results of Agent Nateur's Collagen Regimen on Hair and Nails?
"In search of a booster to complement my hair routine, I opted for this collagen regimen. Indeed, after the birth of my daughter, I had lost all hair density, and my hair seemed "dull." What attracted me? Its generous size, allowing for a long regimen, and its ease of use (just slip a dose of powder into your morning coffee). Within 15 days, I found my hair shiny and revitalized. It was after 1 month and a half of the regimen that I noticed numerous regrowths. As for the skin, it quickly becomes more radiant, and more plump. And I noticed a real improvement in sensitive areas that mark quickly, such as the eye contour and lip contour. I recommend it!"
