Product Information

For me, however, it was easy to include this collagen powder in my daily routine and as it had no flavour it didn’t affect the juice I was drinking and it didn’t affect the texture either. Easy. It’s best taken half an hour before bed time and I found taking a moment to make myself a hot drink before curling up on the sofa and sipping it slowly while watching tv before bed made me feel calmer and more settled, ready for bed. Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been adding the collagen formula to glasses of water and juice throughout the day and evening, as directed by the clear instructions on each tub, and I do think the collagen products have helped boost my energy levels somewhat and have helped keep my skin hydrated and supple. Plus, knowing that your body’s natural collagen levels start to deplete by around 1% per year from the age of 25 (Source: Pura Collagen), I want to do what I can now to look after my skin for years to come. What are the products? Typically speaking, collagen supplements take a minimum of three months to work, which is approximately two complete skin cycles. “This ensures the new cells coming up to the surface are of the highest quality, please note, in some cases this will take longer as the body uses collagen in many other areas, not just the skin,” says Ghatora. When should I take collagen, in the morning or at night? Using the scoop provided, I’d add one scoop (equivalent to one tablespoon) to a drink, usually a glass of orange or apple juice, twice per day and give it a mix.

I didn’t use the powder in any of my lunches or dinners, but the instructions advise that you can add the Glow+ powder to your recipes, if you like. This may make it easier to include the collagen powder in your daily routine, if you don’t drink a lot. Evening is the ideal time as your body goes through a cell rejuvenation and regeneration process while you sleep,” says Ghatora. “Consistency is key with this type of supplement,” adds Logan. “So if you find it easiest to take it in your smoothie in the morning, that's the best time, conversely, if you find it easiest to remember to take it in the evening, in your hot chocolate, then that’s the best time. The best results are seen with consistent long-term use. Should you add collagen to your coffee? We know that stress, injuries, and ageing are inevitable – what matters is how we manage them. Taking collagen fits in easily with your day-to-day routine – whether you mix it into your morning coffee or bake it into a weekend treat. This makes it easier than ever to keep your collagen levels high and your body healthy and happy.The powder itself has been formulated to “naturally enhance the body’s own collagen production and to reduce the effects of ageing” and aims to promote firmer skin, healthier hair and stronger nails. Over the last few weeks, I’ve definitely noticed my hair has been looking healthier, shinier and has had more bounce, whilst my nails are certainly stronger than they were previously. I haven’t changed my shampoo or haircare products – the only thing I’ve changed recently is adding the collagen to my drinks – so it’s possible my healthier hair is a result of the collagen. Maximise your skin's potential to glow and look after your hair and nails with our advanced beauty collagen powder fortified with essential minerals. Pura Collagen glow+ delivers - each tub contains 28 daily servings of 10,000mg VERISOL® Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides, 50mg Hyaluronic Acid and other beneficial ingredients.

Everyone knows that you’ve got to put the work in when you’re young to reap the rewards when you’re older. That is: work hard, eat well, sleep well, exercise, and look after your skin and your body when you’re in your 20s and 30s, to ensure your body (and your bank balance) will look after you when you’re in your 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond.

Your natural collagen levels begin to deplete when you hit your early 20s. Taking collagen supplements stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, making it easier for your body to heal and strengthen itself. With this in mind, we identified that no other brand was producing targeted collagen for specific results, and that’s how Pura Collagen was born. Just a few scoops of Pura daily self-care can help you live well today and support a better tomorrow. With my nails, I had a manicure recently which may have helped strengthen my nails, alongside using glow+ in my drinks. I haven’t noticed that my skin is any firmer, but I understand this is likely to be a long-term benefit after using the product for a bit longer. This was definitely my favourite product of the range. I really liked the orange and ginger flavour and, as I usually had this collagen supplement to start my day, it definitely made me feel more awake and energised! The ginger flavour particularly made me feel alert and ready to work and face the day, without being too overpowering. I think using these products daily over several months or years will certainly help people’s health and wellbeing. I’ve only been using the products for a couple of weeks, so haven’t fully experienced all of their benefits yet but intend to keep using the products as I do think they’re helping me.I’ve been told I look young for my age ever since I was a teenager. Whilst people often tell me to “take it as a compliment,” I’ve never seen it as such because as a teen there’s nothing worse than people thinking you’re a child – or ID-ing you for an age-15 film or a deodorant - and as a 26-year-old woman now I want to be regarded as my own age and not mistaken for a university student or Sixth Former! Initially, the powder would clump together in the juice but then as I’d stir my glass with a spoon, the powder would dissolve into the juice. This sometimes took a few minutes, but was very easy to do. We use Bioactive Collagen Peptides® that are hydrolysed and then put through a further enzymatic process to create our specific peptides that deliver targeted results. Instead of creating general collagen blends, our products are separated into different types of collagen peptides so only the places in your body that you want targeted actually get targeted with each spoonful. This chocolate and salted caramel collagen powder tasted amazing in a hot drink. I’d typically add it to hot water and sometimes added a drop of honey, to make it extra sweet, and found that it tasted like a typical luxurious hot chocolate – you wouldn’t think it had all the collagen goodness inside it! No matter the source, all types of collagen target the effects of ageing. As a general rule, Logan suggests opting for a well-researched hydrolysed, marine-sourced, Type 1 collagen. “Type 1 collagen provides the main support for the skin, helping to provide structure,” she says. “ As it breaks down, we start to lose that structure, which can lead to the signs of ageing. Research has indicated that keeping collagen levels high in the body, by using absorbable collagen peptides, can help to slow the down the development of lines and wrinkles.”

I’ve been interested in taking vitamins and supplements for a few months now because I’ve been getting tired during the afternoons and have wanted to boost my energy levels - but I simply hadn’t got round to going to my local health food shop to see what products are available. Fortunately, I was recently asked to try out and review Pura Collagen’s four key products designed to help improve skin hydration, skin elasticity, hair and nail strength, cognitive function and fatigue reduction – so I was really excited to try them out. That said, adding a substance to a drink I was going to have anyway was far easier than taking a tablet or vitamin, for example, and it was great that I could just add the Pura Collagen powder whenever I was having a drink, rather than being restricted to set times or having to allow set amounts of time between drinks, which I understand some collagen and related products require. As well as helping reduce fatigue, this collagen has been formulated to help immune health and cognitive function and I think because it helped me stay energised in the morning, I did feel able to face the day and work hard. Meanwhile, Logan recommends opting for type 1. “Type 1 collagen makes up 90 per cent of the collagen in the body, so it is certainly the one we should try and focus on the most – especially when looking to support the skin. Type 1 collagen is concentrated around the skin, bones, tendons and ligaments, helping to provide structure and strength.” Which collagen is best for anti-ageing?

All of our Bioactive Collagen Peptides® are scientifically tested and patented and then blended with other respectfully sourced ingredients. No additives, no bulk, just pure, targeted collagen. In terms of actually taking the collagen, it was really easy to add the collagen powders into my daily eating and drinking routines. I kept the tubs on the kitchen side, between my orange squash and my mug stand, to remind me to add the collagen to my drinks each day and usually added the flavoured powders to water and the unflavoured powders to glasses of orange or apple juice or orange squash. Collagen is so much more than just a business to our founders and scientists here at Pura Collagen. Our founders, Jen and Rob, built Pura from a shared passion for health and fitness, which stemmed from each of them using collagen in their own lives and falling in love with the effects it had on their bodies post-injury. The Sleep collagen powder has been formulated as a night-time drink, to help you relax and settle before bed. I tend to go to bed quite late, and have fallen asleep on the sofa goodness knows how many times lately, but have managed to add this collagen powder to my evening routine nearly every day for the past couple of weeks.
