Five Ways To Boost Your Collagen For Younger-Looking Skin

​As you get older, your skin starts losing its elasticity, firmness, radiance, and plumpness, resulting in more obvious-looking lines and wrinkles. But here’s the good news: A skin care regimen that involves collagen treatments can help restore younger-looking skin. Be sure to use a product that’s been formulated by a skin care specialist in Australia or New Zealand.
Collagen is one of the buzzwords you’ll encounter in the beauty industry. It’s among the critical proteins your skin requires to stay firm, radiant, plump, and younger-looking. It supports the skin’s suppleness and structure, and it’s found in the tissues of your bones, the digestive system, tendons, muscles, and blood vessels.
By age 20, your body’s collagen production starts to decline, making it difficult for your skin to recover. You may start to notice stubborn dark spots that may need pigmentation treatment, as well as wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin.
These days, you’ll find different collagen products like creams, serums, sheet masks, supplements, and drinks. But you don’t have to buy all of them to stimulate collagen production. There are things you can do to stimulate your body to produce collagen naturally. Here are five tips to help you get started:
Tips to boost your skin’s collagen levels naturally

1. Stay hydrated.

Drink at least 2L of water daily or eat water-rich foods, like strawberries, watermelon, and cucumber. A well-hydrated body is the foundation of healthy skin, as it produces a moisture-rich environment for elastin and collagen to thrive.

1. Eat well.

Make smarter food choices by avoiding junk and sugary foods. Consider nutrient-rich citrus, leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables (cauliflower and broccoli), and foods rich in sulphur and vitamin C. You can also consider taking supplements that can improve skin health, such as EFA Ultra from DMK Skin.

1. Use natural-based skincare products.

Supplement a healthy diet with natural-based skincare products by DMK Skin. The right products may even help with pigmentation treatment and provide your skin with a natural glow.
Try DMK Skin’s Biogen C, which comes with collagen-boosting ingredients to boost skin elasticity and tighten and tone your skin to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. You can also check out Direct Delivery Vitamin C, a serum that stimulates collagen production and suppresses pigmentation.

1. Use sun protection.

Sunscreen is a must-have for successful skin care in Australia and  New Zealand. It will preserve the collagen your skin is making. Choose a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and use it daily, even on a cloudy day. Try DMK Skin’s Soleil Defence with SPF 50+, a broad-spectrum, non-greasy, and water-resistant sunscreen that won’t clog your pores. It also helps prevent pigmentation and premature ageing.

1. Don’t forget to pamper yourself.

Add some special touches to your daily skincare routine with face massages that can boost blood circulation. No time for that? Treat your skin to high-quality moisturising creams such as DMK Skin’s Nite Firming, a specialised cream that revises environmental and biological signs of ageing. You can also try FibroMax C, which features micro-encapsulation technology to revise pigmentation, ageing, dullness, and fragile capillaries.
