Collagen Wrinkle Creams

Collagen wrinkle creams are one of the most sought after beauty and anti aging types of creams on the market today.

However, as the Swiss have taught us with their always-ahead-of-the-pack skin care research , any collagen anti aging cream that says it actually has collagen in it, is, for all practical purposes, useless. Why? By the way, see our reviews of other anti aging products as well.

Well because the actual collagen molecule, that treasured stuff that we stop producing as much of at a certain age, is too large to penetrate through the skin. So, applying actual collagen topically is pointless, because it is simply too large to actually be absorbed, so it just sits on the top of your skin.

However, your best bet is that there are some swiss collagen stimulating creams that have actually been proven to work by stimulating and enhancing collagen production by the ingredients they contain penetrating the skin’s many thin layers and creating the right conditions for collagen to regenerate on it’s own.

What exactly is collagen, and why is it’s continuous decline after age 30 a big deal for our skin? Collagen is produced naturally by our body.

It is essentially a molecule that we have a lot of in our youth, sort of like we have a lot of other hormones and naturally circulating chemicals in our body in our youth which tend to deteriorate over time, which leads to the aging process and ultimately cell death.

Collagen basically acts like a support system for our skin. It pushes it out, making it look youthful and plump, and fills in lines and wrinkles.

It basically acts as nature’s own filler in other words. It also provides the supple elasticity in our younger years that allows us to smile, frown, arch our eyebrows, and have one of any of the millions of subtle expression we can have in one day, without lines forming.

Collagen wrinkle creams like Kollagen Intensiv only work if they actually force the body to make more collagen on it’s own, because this is how it works, from the inside out. Think of it as the support beams, foundation and “bones” of a house.

Your house would be nothing but a crumpled heap without these supporting structures, and likewise, your face begins to crinkles, wrinkle and become slackened without enough collagen.

Our skin simply bounces back from expressions and the daily wear and tear of pollution, environmental toxins, and expressions or lack of proper care when we are kids and early adults. When the collagen wears thin and starts to deteriorate and also not replenish itself as we get older, that is when we start to notice our expressions and the years of wear and tear catch up with us.

We see this in the appearance of laugh lines, the always-loved crow’s feet (my personal favorite, and yes, I am being sarcastic), fine lines around our mouths, and a bevy of other signs of aging skin. Replenishing collagen, helping to preserve the stuff that we already have, is the best way to ensure it’s continued abundance in our skin’s sub-structure.

What are some of the ways you can naturally boost your skin’s collagen production? Well, you can use a clinically proven collagen wrinkle cream, but you can also take a few supplements and also eat the right foods that help to naturally boost your collagen production as well.

Vitamin C is one of the key vitamins that helps in the synthesis of collagen in the body. It prevents the early breakdown of collagen and allows it to maintain it’s integrity and help keep your natural wrinkle filler from disappearing!

Not only that, I take vitamin C daily just for it’s multiple other skin benefits as well as overall immunity and health benefits. It is one of the most inexpensive supplements you can buy, and it is removed from the body daily, so it cannot become toxic.

If you do not like supplements, just make sure you get plenty of yellow and orange colored fruits and veggies in your diet, or one of my favorite tricks is to add lemon juice to my water. Amino acids are also an essential component in collagen building. One of my favorite foods that is rich in all essential amino acids is the grain/seed quinoa.

Copper peptides are another key component, but copper can become toxic within the body, so I’d recommend getting this in the form of a penetrating topical collagen enhancing wrinkle cream formula with peptides.

This way, you can get the benefit of penetration transdermally (through the dermis) of multiple ingredients that are essential for collagen production.
