Why Women Over 50 Lose Collagen — and How to Get It Back
📄 Why Women Over 50 Lose Collagen — and How to Get It Back
For Beautiful Silverheads, by Essential Nutritionist
“I moisturised. I ate well. But my skin still looked... tired.”
If you’ve found yourself thinking that lately, you’re not imagining it, and it’s not your skincare routine’s fault.
For women 50+, skin and joint conditions change not just because of age, but because of a quiet shift that happens inside your body. You’re not doing anything wrong — your body is simply asking for a new kind of support.
You Notice It in the Little Things
- You sip your morning tea and realise your hands look more creased than last spring.
- You get up from the sofa and feel your knees before your feet hit the floor.
- Your makeup sits differently — less “smooth,” more “settled.”
These aren’t just surface changes. They’re subtle signs of a collagen slowdown — and they start around menopause, often without warning.
Why Collagen Declines in Midlife
Your body is clever. But it’s also efficient. After 45–50, it prioritises what keeps you alive, not what keeps your skin plump or your joints cushioned. Collagen production slows, and what’s already in your body starts to break down faster than it’s replaced.
Even if you eat well, stress, hormonal shifts, and even modern farming methods mean you're not getting the same nourishment your body relied on for decades.
So What Can You Do?
You don’t need to overhaul your life — just shift your routine to meet your body where it is now.
It’s not about chasing youth — it’s about supporting the structure your beauty already rests on.
Try this:
- Swap your morning juice for a collagen-boosting drink (or take a capsule for simplicity).
- Prioritise nutrients that nourish your age, not your 30s.
- Focus on consistency, not perfection — results come with routine.
The Real Win? You Feel the Difference First
Yes, your skin may look smoother. But the real victory is when you realise you’re:
- Moving without stiffness
- Sleeping deeper
- Feeling more “you” in your skin
That’s what our customers tell us — and that’s why we created Collagen Complex+, specifically for women entering their most powerful years.

If you have a thyroid condition, the natural iodine in our marine collagen blend (sourced from PureSea® seaweed) may support thyroid health, particularly for women experiencing hormonal changes post-50. However, if you are on thyroid medication or have a diagnosed condition (such as Hashimoto’s or hyperthyroidism), please consult your healthcare provider before use.
If you have a fish allergy: Marine collagen is derived from fish and is not suitable for those with a known fish allergy. In this case, an alternative collagen source may be more appropriate — always consult a professional before making changes to your supplement routine.
