FAQ

Does Collagen Booster contain collagen?
No. The formula is entirely plant-based and contains neither animal nor marine collagen. The name “Collagen Booster” refers to the combination of traditional beauty botanicals such as horsetail, He Shou Wu, gynostemma, and mangosteen.

Why is horsetail a central ingredient in the blend?
Horsetail naturally contains silica and has a long history of traditional use in formulas related to skin, hair, nails, and connective tissue. This is why it is one of the most important botanicals in the Collagen Booster range.
