It was my lucky day when I was notified as one of the winners of Marian Rivera and Belo Nutraceuticals‘ promo and had a chance to try out Belo Collagen Powder Drink with Hyaluronic Acid Dietary Supplement One Week Kit. I’m still on my 20’s when I tried this product, yet my skin is naturally dry. Let’s just say I do not complete the eight (8) glasses of water that time. It is also my first time to try out adding a powder supplement in my favorite drink – coffee. I got really intrigued and it coming from a reputable company did not make me think twice in trying out the product.

Let’s start!

WHERE I BOUGHT IT

Won a promo online. But this is available on every Watsons boutique.

INGREDIENTS

Marine collagen – Collagen has a lot of benefits (skin, bones, nails, hair, etc.) but we will focus on its benefits for the skin. When it comes to anti-aging products, collagen is always present or most probably the main ingredient. It improves skin elasticity, helps reduce wrinkles and improve skin conditions. It also helps reduce cellulite and prevent stretch marks.

Maltodextrin – It is a safe food additive, and most people can consume it in moderate amounts. It’s used as a thickener, filler, or preservative in many processed foods.

Arginine – This plays an important role in cell division, the healing of wounds, removing ammonia from the body, immune function, and the release of hormones. Basically, an anti-oxidant.

Xanthan Gum – Is a common food additive. It is a powerful thickening agent, and also has uses as a stabilizer to prevent ingredients from separating. Basically, improves palatability.

Glucosamine HCI – For anti-aging, helps to supply the materials needed to rebuild the ‘cushion’ that surrounds the joint.

Sodium Ascorbate – Vitamin C, we all know this.

Vanilla – For flavor.

Sodium Hyaluronate – It has the ability to penetrate the skin and hold onto water. The fact that hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the dermis of the skin makes it even more appealing as a skin care ingredient. People are increasingly looking for products that contain natural ingredients that aren’t toxic and won’t harm or irritate skin. Sodium hyaluronate fits the bill.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Mix 1 sachet if Belo Nutraceuticals Collagen Powder with food or drinks, taken any time of the day.

THE VERDICT

PROS: Effective and highly recommended. I’m convinced with the great result in 7 days! As promised, you will get noticeably firm, plump, and younger looking skin as it moisturize and smoothens your skin.

CONS: It is quite expensive but really worth it! Make sure to add it with drinks that’s a perfect match with milk. I tried mixing this with cold milk tea, it might not taste good for some but I’m ok with it. I suggest you mix it with coffee or anything hot.
