If you’re looking for skincare products that are both conscious and effective, look to vegan collagen, a vegan alternative to collagen from animals or fish. Read on and discover what exactly vegan collagen is and how it is different from marine collagen.
What exactly is vegan collagen? How does vegan collagen benefit your skin?
Vegan collagen is a topical ingredient. Thanks to genetic engineering, collagen can now be made by using genetically modified yeast and bacteria. Vegan collagen has been proved highly effective and has the same skin benefits of topical animal collagen – reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, supporting youthful firmness, elasticity and suppleness of the skin.
What’s marine collagen?
As the name implies, marine collagen is derived entirely from sea-dwelling sources, such as fish scales, skin, and bones. It’s also packed with beauty benefits, from reducing the appearance of wrinkles to preventing the skin from sagging or drying.
Is vegan collagen as good as marine collagen?
You may wonder if vegan collagen works the same way as its non-vegan counterparts. The truth is vegan collagen is functionally equivalent to the marine collagen that is used in skin care, which makes it a perfect option for anyone looking for vegan skincare products.
