Clayton Shagal Collagen

Clayton Shagal Elastin Gel & Collagen Gel

To nourish deep within the skin tissues, you must apply an active treatment product such as Clayton Shagal Elastin and Collagen, which work synergistically with each other. Clayton Shagal products are unique because they effectively penetrate the natural protective barriers of the epidermis and let the implanted collagen fibrils work deep into the connective tissues. The molecular structure remains intact due to its patented extraction process, allowing for 100% efficiency. In other words, when the molecular structure remains whole, the skin is able to absorb more moisture.

Elastin, a natural complement to collagen, is the main protein in elastic fibers located in the connective tissues, or dermis. The components of this protein influence the elasticity and firming the skin. Although elastin makes up only 2 to 4% of the connective tissues, it plays a crucial role in skin hydration and elasticity of the skin. Elastin gel should be applied in the morning. On clean skin, use a thin application without massaging on the face, neck and eye contours. Let the gel penetrate completely; it should take less than 60 seconds. If the Elastin gel and Collagen gel are used together, apply the Elastin gel first. Gels should be used before any creams.

Collagen accounts for up to 90% of the connective tissues, or the dermis. It fortifies the skin's foundation and improves the suppleness of the skin. Collagen gel should be applied in the evening. On clean skin, use a thin application without massaging on the face, neck and eye contours. Let the gel penetrate completely; it should take less than 60 seconds. If the Elastin gel and Collagen gel are used together, apply the Elastin gel first. Gels should be used before any creams.
