FAQ

  • How to use Ellygen?
    Step 1: Cleanse Your Skin Start with a clean base to ensure the spray is fully absorbed. Step 2: Shake the Bottle Before each use, shake the bottle well. This ensures each spray delivers a consistent dose of all active ingredients. Step 3: Hold and Spray Hold the bottle about 3 inches away from your face. If using on face, close your eyes and mouth, then mist your face with 2-3 spritzes. Ensure you cover all areas, including the forehead, cheeks, and chin. Step 4: Allow to Absorb Let the spray sit and absorb naturally into your skin for 1-2 minutes. The negatively charged collagen will penetrate deeper layers of the skin. Tips and Precautions Use twice daily, morning and evening, for best results. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Why is Spray Collagen more effective than digesting it?
    Using a negatively charged collagen spray on the surface of your skin versus ingesting collagen as a supplement targets different concerns and mechanisms of action within the body and skin. 1. Direct Targeting of Skin Layers Topical Application: A negatively charged collagen spray is designed to interact directly with the skin's surface and penetrate the upper layers. The negative charge of the collagen may help it bind more effectively to the skin, which naturally holds a positive charge. This direct application ensures that the active ingredients, including collagen and possibly other additives like hyaluronic acid, peptides, and nanoparticles of gold and silver, work exactly where they are most needed, offering localized benefits such as hydration, elasticity, and potential antimicrobial effects. Ingestion: When collagen is ingested, it is broken down into amino acids and peptides in the digestive system before being absorbed and distributed throughout the body. While it can still benefit the skin, the effects are more systemic and less concentrated than when applied topically. 2. Efficiency and Absorption Topical Application: Topical application allows the collagen and other beneficial ingredients to be absorbed directly by the skin cells that need them most. This method can be particularly efficient for addressing surface skin concerns like dryness, dullness, and early signs of aging. The presence of hyaluronic acid and peptides can further enhance moisture retention and signal skin repair mechanisms. Ingestion: The body's natural digestion and distribution processes mean that orally ingested collagen is less targeted. It's also worth noting that the efficiency of absorption can be influenced by the digestive system's health and the presence of other nutrients that are necessary for collagen synthesis and use within the body. 3. Immediate Versus Long-term Effects Topical Application: Applying a collagen spray topically can offer immediate benefits, such as increased hydration, a soothing feeling, and a visible plumping effect on the skin. These results are particularly appealing for those seeking quick improvements in their skin's appearance and texture. Ingestion: The benefits of ingesting collagen, such as improved skin elasticity and reduced wrinkles, are typically more gradual and cumulative. It may take several weeks or even months of consistent supplementation to notice significant changes in skin health and appearance. In conclusion, the use of a negatively charged collagen spray topically offers direct, targeted, and immediate benefits for the skin's surface, addressing concerns like hydration, elasticity, and appearance with efficiency.
  • Can I use Ellygen Spray on other parts of my body?
    Using Ellygen on parts of the body other than the face can provide numerous benefits. This specialized formulation leverages the unique properties of each component to support skin health and appearance. Here's how these ingredients can benefit the skin on various body parts: 1. Negatively Charged Collagen Improved Hydration and Elasticity: Collagen is a key protein in the skin that helps maintain its structure, hydration, and elasticity. When applied topically, negatively charged collagen can better adhere to the skin, potentially enhancing its ability to retain moisture and remain firm and supple. This is beneficial for areas prone to dryness or loss of elasticity, such as the hands, neck, and décolletage. 2. Gold and Silver Nanoparticles Antimicrobial Properties: Gold and silver nanoparticles have been recognized for their antimicrobial properties. Applying a spray containing these particles can help protect skin areas more prone to bacterial buildup, such as underarms, feet, and other folds of the skin, reducing the risk of infections and odor. Skin Regeneration: These nanoparticles may also support skin regeneration and healing. This can be particularly beneficial for areas with scars, such as from acne on the back (often referred to as "bacne") or stretch marks on the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, by promoting the repair of skin tissues. 3. Hyaluronic Acid (Hypotonic Acid) Intense Moisturization: Hyaluronic acid is renowned for its capacity to hold up to 1000 times its weight in water, making it an excellent ingredient for deeply moisturizing the skin. Applying it on areas like elbows, knees, and heels can help alleviate dryness and cracking, leaving the skin feeling smooth and hydrated. 4. Peptides Signaling Skin Repair: Peptides act as signals for the skin to initiate repair processes, including the production of collagen and elastin. Their application on areas showing signs of aging or wear, such as crepey skin on the arms or sagging skin on the abdomen, can help improve texture and firmness. Reducing the Appearance of Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Peptides can also help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the body, similar to their effect on facial skin, by stimulating collagen production and reinforcing skin structure. General Benefits for the Body Even Skin Tone: Regular use of this spray can help in evening out skin tone and reducing the appearance of spots and blemishes on areas like the arms, legs, and back. Enhanced Skin Barrier: The combination of these ingredients can strengthen the skin's barrier function, making it more resilient against environmental stressors, pollutants, and physical wear and tear. Soothing and Calming Effects: The formulation may also have soothing properties, beneficial for areas prone to irritation or sensitivity, such as the inner thighs or underarms, especially after shaving or waxing.
  • What is Collagen?
    Understanding Collagen: The Building Block of Your Skin What Is Collagen? Collagen is a protein, more specifically, the most abundant protein in your body. It's often referred to as the "glue" that holds the body together, providing structure, strength, and elasticity to various parts, including the skin, bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Types of Collagen There are at least 16 types of collagen, but the body primarily consists of types I, II, and III: Type I: This type accounts for 90% of your body's collagen and is made of densely packed fibers. It provides structure to skin, bones, tendons, fibrous cartilage, connective tissue, and teeth. Type II: This type is made of more loosely packed fibers and is found in elastic cartilage, which cushions your joints. Type III: Supports the structure of muscles, organs, and arteries. How Collagen Works in the Skin In the skin, collagen helps form a fibrous network of cells called fibroblasts, which are responsible for new cell growth. It also plays a crucial role in replacing and restoring dead skin cells. With age, the body produces less collagen, leading to dry skin and the formation of wrinkles. Benefits of Collagen for the Skin Enhances Skin Elasticity: By maintaining a healthy collagen level, the skin remains firm and elastic. Promotes Skin Hydration: Collagen helps in retaining skin moisture, keeping it hydrated and plump. Supports Skin Repair: It aids in healing and rebuilding skin cells, which is crucial for scar tissue formation and skin recovery. Conclusion Collagen is an essential protein that not only supports the structural integrity of the skin but also plays a pivotal role in maintaining its health, appearance, and overall function. Understanding the importance of collagen and how to support its production can help in achieving healthier, more resilient, and youthful-looking skin.
