Why Winter Is a Great Time to Start Collagen

Short answer: winter dries and dulls skin, so it's the season you most notice the loss of bounce and hydration β€” and because collagen takes 8–12 weeks to show effects, starting now means you're set up to see results by the time spring arrives. It's good timing on both counts.

Why winter skin needs the extra support

Cold air, heaters and hot showers strip moisture and lipids, leaving skin tight, flaky and dull. Supporting skin's structure and hydration from within complements your heavier winter moisturiser β€” addressing the inside-out side of the equation.

Why the timing works

Collagen is a slow build: studies measure skin improvements over roughly 8–12 weeks of daily use. Start in winter and that window lands right around spring β€” so you head into the warmer months with the habit established and results showing.

How to start

Pick a format you'll keep up daily. Our Collagen Glow Berries pair collagen with vitamin C in a berry drink, or go sugar-free with Collagen Glow Berries Zero. Anchor it to a winter ritual β€” morning coffee or an evening wind-down β€” and keep daily SPF on (yes, even in winter).

When will I see results if I start now? Typically 8–12 weeks, so a winter start often shows by spring.
Do I still need SPF in winter? Yes β€” UVA is year-round and breaks down collagen, so protect your results.
