Can I use collagen cream during the day?

How do I use collagen cream in the morning?

1. 1Apply your cream following its directions. COLLAGECREAM directs use after waking in the morning and again after washing your face in the evening. That schedule is specific to COLLAGECREAM, rather than a rule for every collagen cream.
2. 2Include sunscreen before going outdoors. Choose broad spectrum protection, which covers UVA and UVB rays, SPF 30 or higher, and water resistance. Apply it about 15 minutes before heading outside.
3. 3Apply enough sunscreen to cover exposed skin. For your face, use at least 1 teaspoon and rub it in thoroughly. Remember your neck and ears too. Reapply every two hours outdoors and immediately after swimming or sweating.

What if my cream already contains sunscreen?

A moisturizer with sunscreen is a valid option if it offers broad spectrum protection and SPF 30 or higher. For time outdoors, choose water resistance too, and keep the same sunscreen reapplication schedule. The word collagen is not the feature to look for when choosing sun protection. Cloudy weather and winter do not remove the need for sunscreen when you go outside.23

What results should I expect?

Moisturizer helps minimize fine lines, and daily moisturizer and sunscreen can make a noticeable difference. Give that routine a few weeks before deciding whether another product is needed for a specific concern. Expect modest improvements from anti aging creams, not the results of a facelift, which remains stubbornly unavailable in a jar.2

Which cream should I choose?

Choose a formula made for your skin type: one intended for oily skin if yours is oily, or one labeled for sensitive skin if sensitivity is a concern. Effective anti aging products come in all price ranges, so the price tag is not a skincare qualification. Avoid introducing several anti aging products within a few days or weeks, because that can irritate skin. COLLAGECREAM is for external use only; avoid contact with your eyes and keep it out of children's reach.12
