L'Officiel's Beauty Awards 2021: Best Beauty Supplement

You’ve probably heard the words “collagen” and “skin” used together many times – and there’s a reason for that. Collagen is the protein that supports the structure of our skin. Think of it as the wooden frame of a bed. Without it, the mattress would lose its form and suppleness, and might even start to sag.

The only problem is, as we get older, the amount of collagen in our bodies start to decrease. In fact, that supply starts to go down from as early as age 20. This can be due to the natural ageing process, though it is often exacerbated by external factors like pollution, sun damage and more.

Thankfully, there are ways to treat collagen-depleted complexions. That’s where the Kinohimitsu Collagen Diamond comes in. Infused with 5300mg of collagen peptide, the drink is specifically made to help restore youthfulness, resilience and radiance to mature skin.

Peptides are a short chain of amino acids. Their shorter molecular structure means they can be absorbed more easily as compared to our skin’s natural collagen. By actively boosting collagen synthesis and repairing damaged collagen fibres, the drink helps to reduce visible signs of ageing such as fine lines, wrinkles, and dryness.

As an added bonus, the drink also has perilla seed extracts to reduce inflammation and boost cell repair, soy isoflavone to stimulate the production of elastin for better skin elasticity, and silk protein to improve moisture retention. A yummy cocktail of condensed apple, lemon and lychee juice – which is rich in vitamin C and malic acid – rounds up this power-packed formula.

For best results, it’s recommended to start with a bottle a day for six consecutive days, after which you can just drink one bottle every two days. From firmer, brighter skin to tightened pores and even stronger hair and nails, your body will definitely thank you for this sweet treat.

The Kinohimitsu Collagen Diamond is priced at $48.90 for 16 bottles and is available at https://sg.kinohimitsu.com.
