Beauté Collagen ComplexVitakruid

For beautiful skin from within
A radiant skin starts from within. Beauté® Collagen Complex is our first recommendation for skincare. This formula contains a comprehensive selection of nutrients, including collagen, Moldavian dragonhead, hyaluronic acid, keratin, and supportive vitamins and minerals. Together, they provide broad support for the elasticity, firmness, and hydration of the skin.

Ingredient of the year: Beauty from within
Moldavian Dragonhead is known for its supportive effect on the skin. It helps to hydrate the skin and contributes to maintaining firmness, softness, and elasticity. DracoBelle® Nu extract, derived from an organic source, has been clinically researched and was awarded Ingredient of the Year in 2022, in the 'Beauty from Within' category.

Mechanism of action: the AMPK-FOXO pathway
Moldavian dragonhead works by activating the AMPK-FOXO pathway, a mechanism that plays a role in ageing within our body. AMPK is an enzyme that supports the energy balance of cells. AMPK also plays a role in regulating FOXO, a transcription factor that regulates various processes related to ageing. In this way, DracoBelle® contributes to healthy and youthful skin from within.

Keratin: known from shampoos
Keratin is a protein that is mainly present in our skin, hair, and nails. Here, it plays an essential role in structure and strength. Keratin is especially known as a component of hair, as it consists of about 90% keratin. However, we also find it in other places, such as in the epidermis and nails.

Cynatine® HNS: the most absorbable, water-soluble form
Cynatine® HNS is a patented form of keratin that ensures effective absorption. This unique formula consists of bioavailable keratin peptides. These smaller molecules can be more easily absorbed by the body and transported more efficiently to the target cells. As a result, they can penetrate deeper into the skin, hair, and nails, where they fulfil their function optimally.

Hyaluronic acid: hydration at the cellular level
Hyaluronic acid has the ability to hold large amounts of water. It mainly plays a role in the skin: almost half of the hyaluronic acid in our body is found in this organ. Good hydration is also important for the appearance of our hair and nails.

Haplex®Plus for optimal absorption
The patented hyaluronic acid Haplex®Plus is produced through bacterial fermentation. It has an exceptionally low molecular weight of between 10,000 and 100,000 daltons, which ensures excellent absorption in the small intestine. Thereafter, it can be efficiently transported to the body cells.

Collagen: the foundation for healthy skin
Collagen is an important protein in our body, which we mainly find in connective tissues, such as the skin, tendons, and cartilage. Although our body produces collagen itself, this production gradually decreases from the age of 25. This leads, for example, to a reduction in the elasticity of the skin, resulting in fine lines and wrinkles.

Solugel® is a leader in the collagen field
In Beauté® Collagen Complex, we have chosen collagen from Solugel®, the leader in the collagen field. This collagen is extremely pure, highly absorbable, and clinically tested.

Hydrolysed collagen peptides for optimal absorption
Our collagen supplement contains hydrolysed collagen peptides. These peptides are obtained by hydrolysing gelatin derived from cattle. The collagen proteins are broken down into smaller pieces with natural enzymes, allowing our body to absorb them better. In a clinical study, the collagen was found in the blood within 15 minutes after intake.

Collagen type I
For our collagen, we have chosen collagen type I. 90% of the collagen in our body consists of this type. Moreover, most types of tissues use type I, compared to types II and III.

Best amino acid profile available
Collagen, like all other proteins, is made up of amino acids. In total, there are 20 amino acids in our body, 18 of which are found in collagen. In collagen, proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline are the major components. Beauté® Collagen Complex is therefore rich in these amino acids.

Sustainable and animal-friendly
Solugel® is extremely sustainable. The grass-fed cattle are raised in the pastures of Argentina, on farms with animal-friendly protocols. All their raw materials are also fully traceable thanks to official certificates of origin.
