Dermalogica
Pro-Collagen Banking Serum
Article content
They say: A facial serum that uses collagen amino acids, polyglutamic acid, jojoba ester and other skin-boosting ingredients to “promote, protect, and preserve skin’s collagen today, so you have more for tomorrow.”
We say: Your body’s collagen production begins to slow in your mid- to late-20s, according to research. This product aims to help with that loss of skin-plumping protein. Our tester, a woman in her 30s, used this serum in twice a day for two weeks along with her other skincare products and noted an improvement in the smoothness and appearance of her skin.
