Collagen Supplements Started

Monday, January 3rd, 2011 | 61 Comments

So since Jan 1st I’ve started taking collagen supplements. First these jellies I got in Tokyo. “SHIBUGALゼリー” *lawls* Oh god these are borderline unpleasant. They taste OK, these are flavored peach. But chewing on a teabag sized collagen jelly is… kinda bizarre. It’s not soft like other jellies, it’s a bit thick and tough, haahaa~ I only have a week of these left then I’ll move onto the multi-pill daily supplements.

wake up? LOL
Jellies

Basically collagen is supposed to help with everything from clear skin to staying slim. An all over beauty gimmick. It comes in pill form, drink form, lotion form, many many forms! Does it work? Seems like some people think they do and others don’t. But I’m willing to give it a try. I love gimmicks I don’t care~ I love my cellulite roller, sleeping socks and sweat baths so this is just another to add to the pile. I have a slimming/firming gel with collagen in it that really shows effects plus an under-eye treatment with collagen that works magic (only it’s so $$$.) If I don’t notice any difference though I’ll stop after a month. There are US collagen supplement pills just like the DHC ones I have if I honestly do think it’s doing SOMETHING for me.

The Winter issue of Used Mix came today! *trumpets sounding*

Winter Issue

*flailing* It’s greeeeeeeeeeat~~~ I’m gonna scan in some of my favorites. *_* I really wish this magazine was monthly & not quarterly Though it does make it difficult to not want to run out & buy fluffy sweaters with nordic patterns.

Anyway~ I’m about to go use some of these things from that Loft Xmas Bath Bag I got for Christmas~~ It’s got these packets in it labeled “BATH CAVIAR!” Some sort of oil beads I imagine. Everything smells so strong & great! :haha:
