All About Collagen

Collagen and elastin is important to give the skin strength and that youthful look. It's the glue that holds our muscle tissue together.

Collagen accounts for around 30 - 45% of the body's protein, it's the essential structural component of all connective tissue and it makes up approximately 75% of the body's skin tissue. As a result, the depletion of collagen can lead to wrinkles and the appearance of ageing. Research does suggest that the collagen levels in our skin start to deplete at the age of 25 and by the time we reach the age of 40 we have lost a third of our collagen.

This is why adding collagen back into your skin is vital to slow down the process of ageing. Using Face Matters products can help as the organic silicon in each of our products has been modified to allow deep absorption which stimulates the production of collagen and elsatin naturally.

How It Works?

All Face Matters products share one essential ingredient - pure organic silicon.

This helps stimulate production of Collagen... a protein in our skin, which is mainly made of silicon. What is silicon? Well it's the 'glue' that holds us together and it is the answer to healthier, younger looking skin. If our body has enough silicon, the collagen will make us look younger! As we age, the source of silica becomes exhausted resulting in wrinkles and dry skin - so building up on those silicon levels and stimulating collagen production is the key to maintaining a healthy youthful complexion.

But how do you actually stimulate collagen? Well every beauty expert will know that unfortunately you can't just apply some collagen cream and expect it to magically work! This is because it doesn't go deep enough into your skin due to the molecule itself being too big.

The reason that Face Matters is successful is that the liquid (Spritz) and gel (Balm and Elixir) organic silicon in each of the three hero products has been modified, (the hydroxide group of molecules is replaced by a methyl group and this provides the silicon molecule with properties that allow it to be absorbed into cells) and it is this deep absorption which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin naturally.
