Before diving into how collagen benefits nails, it’s important to note that collagen is a natural protein found primarily in the skin, keeping it smooth, supple and strong.

But whether topical collagen products can boost deeper collagen reserves is still up for debate. What topical collagen products can do, however, is hydrate and moisturise the surface of the skin.
