ShiLovesIt: Belo Nutraceuticals Collagen Powder Drink with Hyaluronic Acid




ShiLovesIt: Belo Nutraceuticals Collagen Powder Drink with Hyaluronic Acid







At 27, I notice some unwanted changes in my skin that may have been brought about by aging. That’s why sometimes I feel old at my age now that fine lines and large pores become visible.

Topical skincare products that promise anti-aging effects work over time.  So when I heard about BELO NUTRACEUTICALS COLLAGEN POWDER DRINK, I thought that maybe something that works from within may give faster results.

 Let's talk about BELO NUTRACEUTICALS COLLAGEN POWDER DRINK:

1.     WHAT IS COLLAGEN?
-        It is the most common protein in humans, making up 25% to 35% of the total protein content of your body. Collagen gives the skin its strength, waterproofing, and elasticity. Loss of collagen is one of the causes of wrinkles.

2.     WHAT IS HYALURONIC ACID and HOW DOES IT WORK?
-    Hyaluronic acid is used to the skin for healing wounds, burns, skin ulcers and as a moisturizer as well. It is also said to contain anti-aging properties and has been promoted as a "fountain of youth."

Hyaluronic acid works by acting as a cushion and lubricant in the joints and other tissues. In addition, it might affect the way the body responds to injury.

3.  HOW TO USE BELO COLLAGEN POWDER DRINK and WHAT DOES IT TASTE LIKE?
-        It may be added to hot or cold drinks or soup.  I just noticed that the powder doesn't dissolve well in cold drinks.

It tastes like vanilla so I usually add it to my hot chocolate or iced tea.  Instead of soup, I add it in my oatmeal so I won’t need to add sugar and milk anymore. Never tried it in salty-flavored soup because it might not compliment with the sweet taste of this product.




4. WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO TAKE BELO NUTRACEUTICALS COLLAGEN POWDER DRINK? IS THERE A SPECIFIC DOSAGE PER DAY?
-        It can be taken anytime of the day. Just mix 1 sachet of Belo Nutraceuticals Collagen Powder Drink to any food or drink.

5. WITH BELO NUTRACEUTICALS COLLAGEN POWDER DRINK, MAY I DO AWAY WITH MY USUAL SKINCARE REGIME?
-        This product was created by Belo to complement the topical products of Belo Essentials that whiten from within the surface of the skin. So it is best used with Belo Essentials topical products because the skin does not 100% absorb what was applied on its surface.

I tried it with skincare products other than Belo, though.

6. WHERE TO PURCHASE BELO NUTRACEUTICALS COLLAGEN POWDER DRINK?
-        The product is available in Belo Medical Group clinics and may be bought over-the-counter at Mercury Drug, Watsons, and other leading drugstores nationwide.

7.     HOW MUCH DOES EACH SACHET/BOX COSTS?
-        Each sachet costs P113.75, that is P1,592.50 for a box of 14 sachets.


BEAUTY VERDICT:
To see results of a product, you must use it consistently. So I think purchasing per sachet is not advisable. However the price per box at P1,592.50 is expensive. But coming from a reliable beauty brand, Belo Nutraceuticals Collagen Powder Drink is worth it.

I have consumed one box of Belo Nutraceuticals Collagen Powder Drink in two weeks. No effects on my fine lines and large pores were noticed during that time. But I think the hyaluronic acid has remarkable effects. My break outs heal faster than they used to and there’s a glow on my face that people noticed as youthful.
