Skin Saviour^®

Probiotics are very sensitive to heat and warm air, so keep the pouch away from any warm air or moisture, including radiators, steam from a kettle or showers in a bathroom. If at all uncertain, store in the fridge if it is frost-free.

Yes, it is in fact very common to take Gut Works® and Skin Saviour® together because they’re both so effective individually and in combination.

As always with probiotics, your client should always reseal the pouch and only add a few capsules to the pill tin each time; keep the supplements away from heat, warm air and moisture (probiotics are very sensitive to heat); and take the Gut Works® and Skin Saviour® capsules at least 20 minutes before or after a hot drink or food, and ideally on an empty stomach. 

No. There is no such thing as a vegan collagen supplement. The only 'vegan collagen' is what we produce in our bodies ourselves. Collagen comes from animals, mainly cattle or fish, or it is created in our body from amino acids.

Instead, Skin Saviour® is a science-led formula that fuels the body's own vegan collagen production for a clearer, glowing skin complexion and healthier ageing.

Skin Saviour® contains active, skin-friendly bacteria so it’s important to take the capsules at least 20 minutes before or after a hot drink - otherwise, the heat of food or drink can harm the active bacteria. Ideally take the capsules on an empty stomach, together or separately during the day. We recommend 2 capsules daily.

Skin supplements are generally safe. Supplements are heavily regulated in the UK and EU. As with all supplements, if your client is taking any medications, they should ask a qualified health professional as to the suitability of skin supplements.

Yes, there are several nutrients which have been proven to support skin health.

• Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin and provides protection of cells from oxidative stress.
• Collagen is the main structural component in skin and is responsible for its stretch and elasticity.
• Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cell constituents from oxidative damage.
• Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, hair and nails. Zinc is required for DNA synthesis and for the proper turnover of skin cells. It is also needed for normal testosterone levels, which then regulate the thickness of sebum secretions in the skin.
• Selenium also contributes to the protection of DNA, proteins and lipids from oxidative damage, helping the skin cells to stay healthy.
• Vitamin A contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, as it is needed for the normal skin cell turnover.

You can find these ingredients in Skin Saviour®

Pair Skin Saviour® with our Vegan Omega 3, this powerful bundle helps support clearer, healthier and glowing skin. The Omega 3 fatty acids in Vegan Omega 3 help maintain skin moisture and flexibility, while the nutrients in Skin Saviour® support the skin's structural integrity, leading to a more supple and glowing complexion.

Found in almost all the cells in our body, Hyaluronic acid is fundamental to the skin's moisture and hydration, helping keep a young and youthful complexion. Hyaluronic acid is a water-holding molecule in the skin which is bound to collagen and holds up to 1000 times its own weight in water. As well as supporting healthy ageing and skin moisture, it supports healing of wounds and improves collagen synthesis.

Collagen is a protein, made from joined-up amino acids, and plays an important role in our bodies. While most people think of collagen only for skin health, it actually has many more benefits than just for our skin, including supporting healthy blood vessels, bones, gums, joints and ligaments.

Our bodies naturally produce collagen from three amino acids - glycine, proline and arginine - which we consume directly in our diet, or they're produced from other amino acids in our diet. Our bodies can't absorb collagen, which is why it is more effective to fuel the body's own collagen production.

It's more effective to increase collagen production via diet, or a supplement formulated to increase the body's own collagen production, than taking a collagen supplement.

Vitamin C supports the health of our skin through its central role in collagen production and supporting blood vessels feeding our skin.

Grape seed helps protect the body's and skin's cells against free radicals, improving the health and appearance of the skin.

There is a strong link between the skin and the gut. Most Lactobacillus strains produce short-chain fatty acids which are then absorbed and are incorporated into the skin, where they contribute towards skin moisturisation.
