Instant Lifting Facial Serum: Here’s Why Plant-Based Collagen Is the Answer

Vegetal Collagen is our natural alternative to animal collagen, a Pure & Concentrated Active that provides the skin with the proteins and support it needs to counteract the signs of aging. It is certified organic and clinically tested. Let’s get to know it better!

Collagen is a fundamental component of the skin and is essential for constant cell renewal. In particular, it is a resisten and elastic protein that is distributed throughout the dermis (the deepest skin layer) to provide support. Imagine collagen as a strong and resistant scaffolding that has the function of cementing the cells of the skin tissues, forming the structure of the skin. 

It goes without saying that these characteristics make it a true "beauty protein", capable of giving the skin elasticity while keeping it firm and supple. 

However, as we age, collagen becomes lazy, slowing down ots precious activity and needs external help to regain strenght and energy, but be careuful: we must be aware of the choices we make when we go to the aid of our friend protein. 😊

The help we can provide, in fact, can have different origins and, in most cases, the collagen commonly used in cosmetics is of animal origins, therefore taken and isolated from the dermis of mammals (or even from fish tissues, in the case of collagen of marine origin). In both cases, it appears as a protein too large to be able to penetrate the deeper layers of our skin and support it, thus carrying our a superficial action. 

Is there a natural alternative? Of course, and it's called Plant Collagen!

What is Plant Collagen?

It's a 100% vegan and natural product that stimulates the same actions as animal collagen, but provides more intense and long-lasting benefits to the skin! 

The result was surprising and we want to share it with you by presenting a specific cosmetic formula to support our collagen when it needs it, based on innovative natural extracts that penetrate deeply acting on the deepest layers of the skin, helping to maintain tone and elasticity. 



Plant Collagen is therefore our natural alternative to animal collagen, a pure active that provides the skin with protein and support it needs to counteract the signs of aging, hydrating and protecting it from external agents.  


This natural pure active is born from the combination of two extracts obtained from the Kigelia Africana fruit and the Quillaja Saponaria bark , rich in peptides and flavonoids rispectively wich, once in synergy, release their powerful elasticizing, toning and lifting actions; indeed, in addition to nourishing and repairing the skin, these precious actives give a natural tightening effect!

The functional ingredients of plant-based collagen

The formula features innovative natural ingredients that make our plant collagen a pure active with extraordinary anti-aging, plumping and regenerating properties.

Kigelia Africana is a tree of African origin belonging to the Bignoniaceae family and its peculiarity is that of giving life to precious amber-coloured fruits, rich in substances useful for the well-being of the skin. The extract obtained from the Kigelia Africana fruit, in fact, proves to be a true beauty elixir thanks to its high percentage of peptides, which act on the skin by exerting a natural lifting and firming action.

The second active ingredient is an extract too, but not from a fruit, but from the bark of the Quillaja Saponaria tree; native to Peru, this white-flowered tree hides all its magnificent properties in the inner bark, which contains large quantities of flavonoids known for their ability to provide hydration. 

The combination of the two extract and their synergistic action creates a pure concentrate of nature, capable of maintaining constant cell function, hydrating the skin and protecting it from external agents. Furthermore, in vivo tests have demonstrated the immediate tightening effect that the extracts confer on the skin:

Results obtained: 17.5% increase in skin firmness

Conclusions: Immediate tightening effect + improved skin texture

In conclusion, plant collagen has the main characteristics of being an active ingredient with an immediate lifting action, but if used consistently, as with any good habit, it will give visible and stable results even in the long term! 

Pure Collagen is a repairing and regenerating pure active, with both instant and long-lasting lifting effect. Thanks to the natural extracts it is composed of, it guarantees a powerful elasticizing, toning and anti-aging action, plumping the skin of the face and giving an immediate natural tightening effect.

How and When do I apply Plant Collagen? 

It's a versatile product, that meets different needs based on different application preferences. Indeed, in our beauty routine, it can be used morning and evening on a cleansed face in two ways:

  • Pure, before applying face cream or as a substitute of it, if you prefer a lighter texture. In both cases, simply apply 2 drops of product directly to the face and massage it until completely absorbed. 
  • As a booster, adding 1 or 2 drops of product to your favourite face cream or serum to enhance its action. Furthermore, it will make cream texture much lighter to the touch and easily absorbed, improving its effectiveness!

Plant Collagen: Why you should choose it

It is the ideal product for those looking for an active ingredient with immediate action that provides a natural tightening effect in a short time. The anti-aging action on the skin in fact has visible effects already after a single application, but the benefits and results obtained from the continued use of the plant collagen are long-lasting!

Choose it if you need an anti-aging product that make you look your best straight away and that at the same time takes care of the well-being of your skin day after day.
