Hi, I’m Hilary.
There’s something magical about rituals—small, intentional acts that remind us to pause and care for ourselves. For me, skincare has always been more than a routine; it’s a moment of connection, a way to nurture my body and mind.
When we developed our collagen cream with prebiotics, it wasn’t just about addressing skin concerns. It was about creating a ritual that brings resilience, radiance, and calm to your day. Let’s explore how pairing collagen and prebiotics transforms not just your skin, but your sense of self-care.
Why Collagen and Prebiotics Are the Perfect Pair
Collagen and prebiotics work harmoniously, addressing your skin’s structural and biological needs.
Collagen:
Think of collagen as the scaffolding of your skin. It provides strength, elasticity, and the ability to bounce back from stress. As collagen production naturally declines with age, your skin benefits from topical peptides that rebuild its structure and smooth away fine lines.
Prebiotics:
Prebiotics nourish your skin’s microbiome—the invisible layer of beneficial bacteria that protects against irritation, inflammation, and environmental stress. By restoring balance, prebiotics create a foundation for healthier, more resilient skin.
Together, they work like a team: collagen restores, prebiotics protect.
The Ritual of Application
Creating a radiant ritual doesn’t mean complicated steps—it’s about presence and intention.
Morning Ritual:
-
Start by cleansing your face gently, removing impurities from the night.
-
Massage a pea-sized amount of The SABI Prebiotic Moisturiser into your skin, focusing on areas prone to fine lines and dryness.
-
Finish with sunscreen to lock in hydration and shield your skin from UV damage.
Evening Ritual:
-
Double-cleanse to remove makeup, pollution, and daily grime.
-
Apply collagen cream as the final step, letting the peptides and prebiotics work overnight to repair and calm your skin.
What to Expect
With consistent use, the pairing of collagen and prebiotics offers:
-
Hydration That Lasts: Collagen cream draws in moisture, while prebiotics strengthen the barrier to keep hydration locked in.
-
Enhanced Elasticity: Peptides encourage collagen production, reducing sagging and restoring firmness.
-
Soothed Skin: Prebiotics calm inflammation and irritation, leaving your skin balanced and resilient.
-
A Radiant Glow: The combination of hydration, structure, and balance reveals a complexion that feels and looks healthy.
A Moment of Mindfulness
Skincare isn’t just about the product—it’s about how it makes you feel. As you apply your collagen cream, take a moment to slow down:
-
Breathe deeply.
-
Feel the texture of the cream and the way it melts into your skin.
-
Reflect on how this ritual supports not just your skin but your overall well-being.
The Science Behind the Pair
Research shows that collagen and prebiotics aren’t just buzzwords—they’re proven to work:
-
A 2019 study in Clinical Interventions in Aging found that topical collagen peptides significantly improved skin elasticity and hydration within four weeks.
-
Prebiotics have been shown to balance the microbiome, reducing redness and irritation, as highlighted in a 2020 review in Advances in Wound Care.
This duo doesn’t just improve the surface; it transforms your skin’s foundation.
The ritual of pairing collagen cream with prebiotics is more than skincare—it’s self-care. It’s a way to nurture your skin, support its resilience, and honour the connection between looking good and feeling good.
