Now that I'm in my mid-twenties, I've become even more particular about taking care of my skin to avoid it from aging faster than I do. But aside from the moisturizers, serums, and whatnot out there that promise to help turn back the clock on your skin and which deal with the surface layer, there are 'beauty drinks' that work from the inside out instead. Beauty drinks of all kinds are becoming increasingly popular and have already been so around Asia for some time already, particularly in countries like Japan and Korea. In the West, it's picking up on the popularity scale also - slowly but surely, but focus is still more on beauty products are are applied instead of ingested. These drinks come in a wide variety, coming in either powder or liquid form, and can help with everything to do with skin, from everyday maintenance to keep it looking healthy, to whitening and anti-aging. Anti-aging drinks are both the most marketed and in demand though, and they almost always incorporate and promote one particular ingredient: collagen.
I know, a lot of you are probably already very familiar with the word, but what is collagen exactly and why is it so important when it comes to aging? In a nutshell, "
Collagen is necessary for conserving the youthfulness of skin and attenuating wrinkles, it is also essential for the elasticity of the connective tissue of the skin, allowing it to expand and contract without damaging any tissue. When we get older, the production of collagen begins to slow down and cell structures start losing their strength. As a result, skin starts to become fragile, less elastic and wrinkles start to set in." (
1) Now do you see why so many women try to cram as much collagen back into their system as possible? I read that we lose 1% of collagen per year after the age of 29, but I also found out it starts diminishing in our 20s so either way, just because you're not getting any wrinkles yet, doesn't mean you shouldn't get started. Remember, prevention is always better than cure!
I've always been curious about trying out a beauty drink for myself, so thankfully I was sent two boxes by Endless Nutricosmetics to try out their Endless Collagen Juice! They actually sent these to me months ago so this review is definitely overdue already.

I also love the bright pink boxes they come in. If I'm not mistaken, this Collagen Juice only comes in one flavor variant which is peach.
