This drinkable holiday skin boost could be your summer holiday saviour

Turning your thoughts to your summer holiday is easy, but getting that holiday glow can be less so.

All that sweat work in the gym can wreak havoc with your skin, running outdoors makes it worse, and it doesn’t stop at check-in: flying dries you out and a sudden switch to humid conditions can lead to breakouts just as you’re trying to pose for photos.

Skinade’s Holiday Edition will act as your balancing product: a 30-day rescue programme to see your skin through the lead-up to and during your holiday.

You drink it, so it’s not another lotion to add on top of all those sun creams and moisturisers, and it’ll keep you hydrated when you’re sunbathing.

Plus, it fits in your hand luggage — the set includes 20 bottles for drinking before you go, and 10 15ml sachets for when you’re away. Just mix the sachet with water: it tastes of a light peach and mango flavour and contains just 35 calories, so it won’t get in the way of that holiday health kick.

The benefit of taking Skinade as a liquid rather than a pill is that it gets to work immediately. Each bottle or sachet adds 7,000mg of hydrolysed marine collagen to your bloodstream, boosting collagen in your skin and triggering the body’s own collagen factories, called fibroblasts. This in turn boosts the production of hyaluronic acid, responsible for hydration, so your skin will look more radiant and supple.
