What Is Collagen?

First things first: what in the world is collagen anyway? Contrary to popular belief, collagen isn’t a synthetic ingredient in beauty or skincare products. Believe it or not, collagen is actually a protein that is naturally found in your body!

You can find collagen all throughout your body. From the strands of your hair to the tips of your nails, and even in your bones and muscle tissues, collagen is one of the most abundant proteins found in the human anatomy.

What Does Collagen Do?

Like most proteins in our bodies, collagen helps keep things together. Whether that “something” is our joints, skin cells, or even our gut health, collagen gives cells and tissues strength and gives your skin elasticity.
