Best Collagen cream for face

The constant pursuit of the best and most effective collagen cream is endless. With the myriad of benefits that collagen creams boast, it is no wonder this product is hailed as the Goddess to Beauty. Collagen cream is said to be able to remove stretch marks, wrinkles, scars, crow’s feet and also adds elasticity to the skin, face and neck.

Here is a review of some of the best collagen cream available in the market.

1. Loreal Skin Expertise Collagen Moisture Filler Daily Moisturizer Day/Night Cream

This Loreal collagen cream promises nothing less than the goodness of collagen. Its primary ingredient here is natural collagen which is extracted through an innovative process which still retains the hydrating qualities of collagen.

A clinical study done by this beauty giant showed that 80% of the women tested showed improvement in their skin within a week of application. After 4 weeks, effects of collagen would start to set in as the women experienced smoother skin with finer lines. Not bad for a product that is not only easy on the pocket but also provides results.

I found the formula non greasy and lightweight; very easily absorbed for my combination skin. Although I did not notice any visible results within a week of application, I did find that after 4 weeks, my skin was more moisturized and some wrinkles at the corner of my eyes disappeared.
For budget consumers, this Loreal collagen cream might just be the one that ends your search for the most economical and affordable collagen cream.

2. Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream (most ex)
This classy looking collagen cream is quite a mouthful for a collagen cream targeted at anti aging. On top of containing the usual collagen extract, this product also contains Gingko Biloba and Padina Pavonica, a type of rare Mediterranean algae. Gingko Biloba is said to promote cell regeneration while Padina Pavonica has water attracting properties that helps to retain hydration, improve suppleness and elasticity.

Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream is clinically proven to smoothen wrinkles and boost hydration levels within 15 days of application. The lifting effect it has on its users helps those who experience lost of elasticity on their skin. The light weight texture is also good for sensitive and combination skin. I like that it is has a light, floral scent to it that is easily absorbed when applied.

If you are looking to splurge on yourself, this is one collagen cream for face that you cannot miss out on.

3. Olay Definity Night Restorative Sleep Cream
This anti aging collagen cream targets discoloration, pigmentation and wrinkles on your skin. Together with glucosamine complex, it aims to battle discoloration, dullness, brown spots and wrinkles, all of which come with the times of aging.
Thanks to this unique formula, it penetrates deep within the layers of the skin to give users flawless, hydrated and luminous skin when they wake up.

The texture of this cream is slightly thicker than the rest and is more suited for dry, parched skin. Since mine was of a combination type, I passed the sample to a friend of mine who provided a review of it. She did not observe any noticeable difference to the colour of her face within 2 weeks but felt that her skin was softer and suppler. After 4 weeks, she did comment that her skin was more radiant and the colour balance was adjusted to have less obvious brown spots.
