What Is Collagen?
Collagen is one of the most abundant structural proteins in the human body. Forming the skin's fundamental building blocks, this valuable component plays a critical role in supporting the skin's firmness, suppleness and youthful appearance. Present in Lacinia cosmetic formulations, collagen helps support from outside, cosmetically, the natural protein that decreases in the skin over time with environmental factors and the ageing process. Topical collagen applications can help support the physical appearance of the skin barrier and create a smooth texture. Thanks to its molecular structure, it forms a moisture-binding barrier on the skin's surface, reducing water loss and letting the skin present a plumper, smoother appearance. An essential of skincare routines, this component allows the skin to look more resilient against time from a cosmetic point of view.
Benefits in Skincare
Collagen is often chosen in skincare routines to soften the look of signs of ageing and achieve a fresher skin texture. With regular use it moisturises the skin deeply, softens it and revitalises a tired look. The collagen support in Lacinia products is specially formulated to bring out the skin's natural radiance and help it maintain its form.
- A firming effect: By supporting the skin's suppleness, it offers a firmer, more toned and lifted appearance.
- Intensive moisturising: By binding water molecules to the skin's surface, it moisturises over a long period and softens the look of fine lines caused by dryness.
- Smoothness: It deeply softens the skin's texture, reducing roughness at the surface and leaving a silkier feel.
- Revitalising: It refreshes tired, dull and lifeless skin, brightening it and bringing a natural vitality.
How Is It Used?
Cosmetic products containing collagen should generally be applied to cleansed and toned skin for the most effective skincare results. You can apply Lacinia collagen serums or creams in your morning and evening routines by working them into your face, neck and décolletage with gentle circular massaging movements. Waiting a few minutes for the product to be fully absorbed by the skin before moving on to your other cosmetic steps will be helpful. Supported with sunscreen in daytime routines, collagen's protective shield effect on the skin's surface becomes more pronounced and the wearing reflections of external factors are minimised.
Who Can Use It?
Collagen is suitable for all skin types experiencing a loss of suppleness, unhappy with the look of fine lines and wanting to bring plumpness to their skin. It is a perfect support in particular for mature skin, dry skin in need of moisture and those with a tired complexion. Anyone who wants to slow the cosmetic effects of ageing can confidently choose it.
Points to Keep in Mind
When using collagen products, direct contact with the eyes should be avoided. As with every cosmetic product, a patch test on a small area of the inner wrist or the side of the neck is advisable before first use. The products should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight so the formulation retains its integrity.
