If you have dark spots or varicose veins on your skin, you know how frustrating these unsightly markers can be. And considering how dark they are, they seem impossible to prevent or lighten simply by slathering on topical products. So what can you do about it? As it turns out, there is a solution to your skin problems—and it comes from the inside. Here’s how beauty supplements like collagen, antioxidants and French pine bark extract can help get rid of dark spots and varicose veins. What Causes Brown, Dark Patches of Skin? Skin becomes darker when it produces excess melanin, a natural skin pigment. This is called hyperpigmentation. There are many reasons for hyperpigmentation, including: • Inflammation• Hormone changes• Sensitivity to sunlight, also known as sunspots• Aging, causing age spots or liver spots• Genetic factors• Melasma, a condition that causes hyperpigmentation of the skin when it’s exposed to sunlight Whatever the reason, most women with brown spots on their faces and bodies would love to find a way to get rid of them. Luckily for you, there are beauty supplements that do just that.

How does collagen do this? To understand, you need to understand what collagen is, a protein that occurs naturally in your body. Collagen works to make your skin firm and elastic and to help replace dead skin cells. In order for your body to use collagen properly, its molecules need to be broken down. That’s where hydrolyzed collagen comes in—it’s broken down into smaller molecules so it’s easier for your body to process. When it comes to anti-aging supplements, collagen is the cream of the crop. Collagen benefits for skin include increasing skin hydration, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and visibly brightening skin. Collagen supplements combat sagging skin from the inside out. Scientific research shows how collagen helps heal dark spots. A 2017 study from China found that an oral supplement containing collagen peptides helped reduce the appearance of melasma in women. A 2015 study on men also noted that an oral hydrolyzed collagen supplement, along with antioxidants, reduced the appearance of age spots. Collagen Powder vs Pills vs Drinks As you can see, taking an oral collagen supplement has so many amazing benefits for your skin! But how much and which kind should you take: powder, pills or drinks? Collagen pills usually contain much less collagen than drinks or powders, and they’re harder for your body to absorb. For these reasons, consider choosing liquid collagen drinks (like Taut Premium Collagen Drink) and powders (like Taut Premium Collagen Powder) over collagen pills. Check out 7 tips for choosing the best collagen supplements that works for your skin. Heal Dark Spots with Antioxidants You’ve probably heard a lot about antioxidants these days—with good reason. Antioxidants fight against free radicals that damage cells. That’s great news for your skin. Antioxidant benefits for skin include protecting against sun damage, reducing inflammation and preventing wrinkles. Add another benefit to that list: getting rid of brown spots. A 2014 study demonstrated how taking an antioxidant supplement reduced dark spots for Asian women after just 30 days. Another study from France showed that antioxidants significantly diminished sun spots, making skin more radiant. Taut Bright Bye Bye Dark Spots capsules are brimming with antioxidants to give you dazzling, brighter skin. This supplement contains a super powerful antioxidant called L-glutathione, along with amino acids, vitamin C, olive leaf extract, artichoke leaf extract, grape seed extract and alpha lipoic acid. This incredible product has helped many of our customers lighten their brown spots and enjoy a more radiant complexion.

It’s made from the interior bark of the Pinus Maritima tree, and its properties are nothing short of amazing. But what exactly can it do for your skin and body? The secret of French pine bark extract lies in its oligomeric proanthocyanidin compounds (OPCs for short). OPCs are very strong bioflavonoids—plant compounds high in antioxidants. They also have powerful anti-inflammatory properties. OPCs are also present in grape seed extract. French professor Jack Masquelier studied the OPCs in French pine bark extensively and found that they have value for anti-aging and general health. One of the most important French pine bark benefits is that it helps your body absorb vitamin C. Your skin needs vitamin C to help make collagen and to help repair photodamage. If you want younger-looking skin, try taking your vitamin C with French pine bark extract. As we age, our bodies begin to make less collagen. And less collagen means duller, saggier skin. Many people find taking a collagen supplement helps to revitalize their skin. Taking a French pine bark extract supplement as well as collagen can do wonders to combat the signs of skin aging. On its own, French pine bark extract has shown the ability to improve the signs of skin aging in clinical trials. A 2012 study of 112 women found that taking a daily French pine bark supplement resulted in fewer signs of photoaging, including brightening of skin with hyperpigmentation. But French pine bark benefits don’t end with the skin. This amazing ingredient has some more surprising uses. Taking a French pine bark supplement may also help reduce asthma and allergy symptoms. French pine bark extract may even be able to increase endurance for athletes. For people with varicose veins, one of the most interesting French pine bark extract uses is to improve blood circulation. The way your blood flows through your body is critical to your good health. As we age, blood vessels can become less flexible, causing them to work less efficiently. This can cause poor circulation and a host of health problems including problems in the veins. Clinical trials have shown that French pine bark extract can improve blood flow for people with coronary artery disease. How Are Varicose Veins Treated? Varicose veins are large veins that twist and stick out. They may be blue or purple (either way, no one wants them!). Varicose veins are typically found in your legs and feet, although they can occur anywhere in your body, and they show up when your blood doesn’t flow properly. If you have varicose veins, you’re not alone. An estimated one in four adults in the United States suffers from this condition. While it’s true that women get varicose veins more often, men are prone to them, too. Most people don’t like how their legs look with varicose veins. These enlarged veins can make you feel self-conscious about your legs—to the point of covering them up, even on the hottest days. Although they’re usually nothing to worry about, varicose veins can sometimes cause minor pain and discomfort. You might think you have to live with varicose veins. Not true! There are many modern treatments that are used to get rid of them. However, some of these treatments can be costly and invasive. Many people are turning to natural varicose veins treatment, with good results. Can French Pine Bark Extract Heal Varicose Veins? French pine bark extract is a natural varicose veins treatment, likely because of this amazing extract’s ability to improve circulation and blood flow and its OPC antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Here’s what scientific research has to say about French pine bark extract and varicose veins: Varicose veins and smaller spider veins are very common during and after pregnancy. An Italian study of 133 women showed that taking a French pine bark supplement for six months successfully reduced the number of varicose veins and spider veins. Study participants also wore compression stockings, which is a standard first-step natural varicose veins treatment. Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a condition that causes the blood in your legs to not flow properly back to your heart. CVI can cause varicose veins and is often associated with it. An Italian study found that French pine bark extract successfully improved the ill effects of chronic venous insufficiency for study participants after they took the extract for just two months.

Here’s what they said in their own words One customer called LAC Masquelier® French Pine Bark OPC “remarkably effective”. She went on to mention, “I started taking French Pine Bark because I saw that one of [its] powerful benefits is its anti-inflammatory properties. I had been having a sudden onset of adult cystic acne this year, even though I have had great skin and never had any issues with pimples or breakouts. Plus, I eat clean and healthy. So, when my face blew up and decided to rage in protest against everything that I used to be rid of all the painful pimples, I was at my wit’s end and decided to try French Pine Bark as my last resort. After only 5 days, my pimples stopped hurting. And these were the huge painful pimples that were deep in my skin. After a month, my skin started clearing up. I forgot to take them with me for one weekend while I was out of town, and I noticed that some of the leftover pimples stopped receding. I came home and got back on my regimen of taking them every morning, and it went back to improving. I am now on my second box, and my face is resembling how it was before adult acne took over. I can finally be out in public without foundation and allow my skin to glow naturally! Bonus: It's boosted my immune system and keeping me healthy amidst sneezes and allergies at home.” Taut Collagen Anti-Oxy Foxy Kit program combines 3 boxes Taut Premium Collagen drinks and our amazing French pine bark extract to give you the best results.
