Sip Your Way to Healthier Hair and Skin

If a genie granted me a few wishes, I would say, "world peace, please" and then whisper, "more collagen." As we get older, this miraculous protein in our body starts to wane. (Smoking and poor sleep depletes our reserve too.) Collagen helps make our skin elastic, our hair thick and our nails strong. Studies have shown that ingestible supplements can boost collagen production--but not overnight. You have to be loyal. I tried three top-selling supplements and decided to stick with female-founded Copina Co., a vegan, plant-based formula that comes in cacao, vanilla and matcha flavors, ($29.99 for 28 servings). The daily ritual of making a delicious collagen smoothie or hot collagen cocoa makes me feel better about all the coffee I drink--and my skin looks more hydrated and firmer after a month.
