Dictionary of Torriden
Collagen is a structural protein in the skin that works with elastin to support firmness and elasticity.
It also has an exceptional ability to hold moisture — with fibers that can bind up to 3,000 times their weight in water — helping the skin stay smooth and hydrated.
The absorption of collagen can vary depending on its molecular size.
Smaller collagen molecules are absorbed more easily and can reach deeper into the skin.
Collagen helps support the skin’s structural foundation for elasticity, which begins to decline rapidly after the age of 25.
It also works as a moisturizer, helping to improve hydration and the appearance of damaged skin.
FAQ
Using collagen and vitamin ingredients together can be beneficial for skin elasticity. Vitamin C helps reduce oxidative stress and supports collagen synthesis, contributing to improved firmness and protection from external factors.
As we age, the natural production of collagen in the body slows down, leading to reduced elasticity. That’s why products with collagen can help support skin firmness and provide added hydration.
To enhance absorption, Torriden uses plant-based collagen with a low-molecular extraction process, formulating with different molecule sizes to help deliver moisture from the skin’s surface to deeper layers.
