This Collagen-Infused Drink Is an Ingestible Anti-Ager

Let’s Just Get to the Point:
Think beyond topical treatments and consider this drink for healthier, younger-looking skin. Skinade ($150 for a 30-day supply) contains a unique blend of active ingredients that work to boost your body’s production of both collagen and hyaluronic acid. Be sure to check with your doctor before taking it if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding or have a medical condition.

If You Want to Know More:
The collagen craze shows no sign of slowing down, with an entire new category of ingestible products promising to deliver the skin-saving protein and improve your looks from the inside, out. The anti-aging drink Skinade contains collagen, yes, but also a special blend of ingredients that work to boost your body’s natural production of collagen and hyaluronic acid. Both are key components for healthy, youthful skin; collagen is the protein responsible for giving skin its support and structure, and hyaluronic acid is a type of sugar that draws moisture to the skin and can hold up to 1000 times its own weight in water, essential for a plump, hydrated complexion.

Skinade’s blend of ingredients is a specially balanced ratio meant to deliver serious results. It can improve how your skin looks and feels in just 30 days—we’re talking fewer fine lines and wrinkles, increased skin suppleness, and healthier skin and nails. The key ingredient is hydrolysed marine collagen—sourced from fresh water fish—with a low molecular weight; the lower the molecular weight, the easier it is for the body to absorb and utilize it. And unlike other ingestibles, it doesn’t just stop there. It also contains other essential micronutrients, including vitamins b and C, plus l-lysine (an amino acid) and organic flaxseed oil.

And to answer your burning question, it actually tastes pretty good. It contains natural mangosteen and peach flavors; I found it fruity and sweet with a little hint of citrus. It comes in convenient, single-serving, 5.0 ounce bottles (you’re supposed to drink one daily). Overall, it’s easy to drink, and I especially liked it poured over ice. It also comes in a gel form in packets that are ideal for travel (just mix with half a glass of cold water). The formula is lactose-, gluten-, and dairy-free, and contains no GMOs or artificial colors.

While Skinade recommends drinking it daily for at least 30 days to see the best results, changes can appear as quickly as a week, so I sipped it daily for seven days (during which I tried to keep my topical skin care regimen exactly the same). Did I look 10 years younger by the end of the week? No, but I did feel like the texture of my skin had improved—it felt softer and more hydrated, even pre-moisturizer. My nails, which were coming off a long-run of gel manicures, also felt stronger and longer, no cracks or splitting in sight. Consider sipping on some Skinade and seeing what changes you notice.
