Ingredient

Collagen

INCI: Hydrolyzed Collagen

Protein that provides hydration when applied topically. Too large to penetrate skin and rebuild collagen.

Hydrolyzed collagen consists of broken-down protein fragments that help hydrate skin by forming a moisture-retaining film. While too large to integrate with skin's own collagen network, topical application provides temporary plumping and smoothing effects.
