Get our complete practical guide to staying in great shape with collagen: usage tips and advice tailored to your specific needs and goals.
More beautiful skin, revitalised nails, reduced joint pain... collagen is a precious ally for your body when you add it to your beauty / health routine. You can do this in different ways: through dietary supplements, creams, or combined with serums, vitamins, trace elements and so on, to meet specific needs. Here are our recommendations for optimising your collagen course.
Everyday beauty
Beautiful skin
Prevent
If your skin is still young and you want to preserve your youthful capital as early as possible, collagen is a major ally. It helps prevent the appearance of the first signs of ageing, such as barely visible wrinkles.
Our advice: Collagen Vital Beauty. A box of 15 sachets for a fairly short course that you can repeat whenever your skin is put to the test, for example during winter sports, or to prepare your skin before summer.
Maintain
Is your skin showing more visible wrinkles and starting to lose elasticity? This course is ideal when the signs of ageing begin to appear.
Our advice: Collagen Vital Beauty. 1-month course
Two boxes of 15 sachets for a one-month course that will help maintain your skin and slow the appearance of new wrinkles. This 10 g active formula enriched with collagen, hyaluronic acid and vitamin C is perfect for reinforcing the mesh of the dermal tissue, which activates the fibroblasts and thus improves collagen production.
Correct
You have "problem" skin and want to improve its overall quality with a complete, multi-functional formula.
Our advice: Collagen Vital Power. 1 to 2-month course
This pure marine collagen formula, super-dosed at 10 g, regenerates your own collagen for a noticeable improvement in the quality of your skin.
Regenerate
You have mature, marked skin and want to plump it up for a younger appearance with a lifting effect, without having to resort to surgery.
Our advice: Collagen Vital Power + Collagen Vital Beauty, alternating. Course of 45 days to 3 months
By combining the two formulas alternately, you give your skin a complete treatment that works deep in the dermis. Your skin will be more supple, radiant, and your wrinkles less visible.
Beauty starts on the inside: the Inside/Outside protocol
Inside: for the repair and regeneration of the dermis
Beauty begins on the inside. A body that is healthy on the inside will show on the outside. Your skin is no exception to this rule.
It is first by rebuilding your dermis from within that you will obtain the most visible results: by taking Collagen Vital as a course, your dermis will be able to regenerate its own collagen to become denser and more elastic, which in particular helps prevent stretch marks. This is the very essence of Collagen Vital Power and Collagen Vital Beauty.
Outside: protection and repair of the epidermis
To protect and repair the epidermis, in other words the outer surface of the skin, use the Covéline serums combined with the Covéline creams. On the outside, they smooth the wrinkles and fine lines of your epidermis for a long-lasting firming effect that makes your skin radiant.
This is the truly winning combination: caring for the dermis, the skin's deep layer, and the epidermis, its upper layer. This is the
We recommend two protocols depending on your skin:
- For all skin types: Collagen Vital Beauty + Covéline: Hyaluronic Acid Serum or Collagen Serum + Collagen Cream over one month
- For mature skin: Collagen Vital Power + Covéline: Intense Lift Serum + Pepti Power Cream. Results will be visible within a month, but for the best results, we recommend a 3-month course.
Beautiful hair
When your skin is dehydrated and your hair is dry, devitalised and losing density, collagen can help here too. This is often the case when you return from holiday after the assault of the sun and sea water.
Our advice: 1 box of Collagen Vital Hair & Nails and 1 box of Collagen Vital Beauty. Alternate the sachets every day for 1 month: 1 hair sachet one day and a beauty sachet the next, or vice versa. Take it in the morning, at midday or in the evening, but at a regular time.
Beautiful hair and nails
Protect and repair
When your hair lacks life, shine and suppleness, or when you're losing it. Likewise, when your nails are brittle, ridged and soft.
You need to reboost your hair and nails to protect them from repeated colouring, polish, and also from pollution and everyday stress.
Our advice: a 1-month course of Collagen Vital Hair & Nails, to be repeated as needed. Take 1 sachet every day at a fixed time, morning, midday or evening.
Repair and regenerate
We've designed a protocol to deeply care for and regenerate your hair from root to tip.
Our advice: a 1-month course of Collagen Vital Hair & Nails + 1 box of Collagen Vital Power . Take one sachet every day at a fixed time, alternating between the two products.
Looking after your immunity
In autumn, viruses and bacteria come back, and in spring, allergies come knocking. During these two seasons, the changes in weather and temperature throw us off balance... not to mention the pollution, fatigue and stress that make us more likely to fall ill.
Prevention is better than cure, in particular by protecting your mucous membranes to help our body strengthen itself and fight off intruders on its own.
Our advice: a 1 to 2-month course of Collagen Vital Immunity, in autumn or spring: take 1 sachet every day in a glass of water at a fixed time. Morning, midday or evening.
The Collagen Vital Immunity formula is made of marine collagen biopeptides supplemented with echinacea and reinforced with the 5 vitamins A, B, C, D, E and trace elements to give our body every tool it needs to defend itself.
Joint pain, muscle pain, inflammation
You're prone to recurring joint problems such as osteoarthritis or osteoporosis. You suffer from inflammation, tendinitis or chronic bone, joint and muscle pain, or pain following an injury; collagen can help you reduce the symptoms and recover more quickly.
Our advice: a 3-month course of Collagen Vital Power. Take 1 sachet per day at a fixed time. This course can be repeated twice a year if needed, or taken year-round for ever-improving results.
Sport and recovery
Maintenance and recovery
You regularly suffer from aches after physical effort and want to repair micro muscle tears. The following course is designed to help you recover after exertion.
Our advice: a 1-month course of Collagen Vital Power. 1 sachet per day at a fixed time, morning, midday or evening.
Competition and repair
As part of preparing for a competition for maximum performance on the big day. Running, triathlon, cycling races, swimming competitions, combat sports; the course below helps reduce the risk of muscle strains and recover better afterwards.
Our advice:
- 2 sachets of Collagen Vital Power for 10 to 15 days before the competition
- 1 sachet for the last 5 days before the competition
- 1 sachet per day after the competition for 10 to 15 days as needed for recovery.
You now know how to use collagen optimally to meet your needs. While collagen offers undeniable everyday support, let's remember that a healthy lifestyle and a balanced diet remain the foundations of a healthy body.
