Hey everyone! I’ve discovered a cure for wrinkles!


If the name and the fresh appearance of the orchid on the front don’t convince you, there is an explanation:

“Normally our body can productively generate Collagen by itself until the age around 20.”

The thing is, you see, that our body stops productively generating and starts to unproductively generate collagen. And if you don’t supplement your lazy body, you will get “skin shrinkage and wrinkles”.

Don’t fret. Life is not over. According to the label you can substitute the self-generated collagen with that “from chicken skin, pig tendon, cow tandon or fish scale.” But you’d only do this if you hate your skin, because we all know that “the source of high quality and highly effective Collagen should be from deep sea fish.”

Which, happily, each bottle of this stuff contains.

If you are arching your brow in disbelief, there is a footnote:

“According to a piece of research study, the intake of extracted Collagen of 3,000 mg/day for 30 days can help increase skin moisture and reduce wrinkles.”

The reference for the footnote is Kasuaki Y and Yoshihasu M., “Efficacy of orally-ingested marine collagen peptideon dryness and roughness of the human skin” Fragrance Journal, 9.

I bet that was a doozy to read. Oh and, bottoms up, I’m only a quarter of the way into my (apple flavoured) deep sea fish collagen beauty session…
