Collaccino, this is how you make it

Collagen is incredibly popular and offers so many benefits; it's the building block of your skin, essential for anyone committed to a good skincare routine.

The only problem with collagen powder is that incorporating it into your daily routine can be quite a challenge.

Fortunately, there are a few tricks to make it easier.

For example, you can mix collagen with your water, but honestly, it can have a bit of a strange taste.

If you want to use it consistently, it's more convenient to mix it with foods that already have some flavor.

One of my favorite ways to get collagen is by mixing it with my coffee, the Collaccino.

Just add a scoop to your milk frother, and you'll have a delicious and nutritious cup of coffee!

Take collagen at a fixed time every day to build a good routine.

That's why we recommend mixing collagen powder into your coffee. The Collaccino.

You won't notice the benefits of collagen after just one day. If you truly want firmer skin, shiny hair, and strong nails, you'll need to take it daily.

Therefore, here's an easy recipe for daily use to help you with your routine:

Supplies

  • Standard coffee
  • Milk (of your choice)
  • Collagen powder
  • Milk frother (electric or manual)
  • Cup

Instructions

  • Brew a strong cup of coffee.
  • Add the collagen to the milk.
  • Lightly warm the milk in the microwave or in the milk frother.
  • Use the milk frother to froth the milk until it's airy.
  • If using a manual frother, pump the handle up and down until the desired foam level is reached.
  • Pour the coffee into your cup.
  • Add some cocoa or cinnamon for an extra indulgent moment.

It's important that the collagen powder you use consists of 100% active ingredients. If not, you're simply wasting money. What's important for a good collagen powder?

A good collagen contains 3 things:

  • ✅ Is in POWDER form; pills & gummies are less easily absorbed. This is only the case for collagen.
  • ⚡️ Contains vitamin C; this is essential for collagen absorption.
  • ✅ High dosage; consists of 100% active ingredients.

These collagen products do NOT work:

  • ✅ Gummies: too few active ingredients.
  • ✅ Creams: disproportionate in terms of price/quality and active ingredients.
  • ✅ Pills: cannot be properly absorbed by the body.
  • ✅ Few active ingredients: some products contain only a small portion of active ingredients.

These are the ingredients you should look for:

  • ✅ Bovine collagen; this collagen variant has the least taste.
  • ✅ Hyaluronic acid; this natural substance improves the skin's moisture absorption.
  • ✅ Vitamin C: Without vitamin C, collagen cannot be absorbed. Pay attention to this when purchasing.
