Skin reflects what’s happening inside. Emerging wrinkles, dull complexion, recurring blemishes, tight-feeling skin... These signs often have a deeper cause that topical creams alone cannot address. That’s where dietary supplements come in.
Why does skin age from the inside?
After age 25, the natural production of collagen — the protein that gives skin its firmness and elasticity — decreases by around 1% per year. Oxidative stress, hormonal fluctuations, and certain nutritional deficiencies further accelerate this process.
The result: skin gradually loses its radiance, bounce, and hydration. Hormonal blemishes appear, and fine lines settle in. A skincare routine can help on the surface, but for action at a deeper level, you need to act from within.
Key natural active ingredients for skin
Collagen is the structural protein in skin. Taken orally, it provides the body with the amino acids needed to stimulate its own collagen synthesis. The key criterion: choose a clinically well-studied source with a standardized active ingredient.
Hyaluronic acid is the hydrating agent in the dermis. It retains water in the tissues and contributes to skin’s volume and plump appearance.
Vitamin C plays a dual role: it stimulates natural collagen production and protects existing fibers from oxidative stress. It contributes to normal collagen formation to support normal skin function.
Zinc is the trace element most concentrated in the skin. It contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, regulates sebum production, and helps control the inflammation responsible for hormonal acne.
Vitamin E and selenium help protect cells against oxidative stress — one of the main causes of skin aging.
How to choose the right supplements for your skin
Four criteria make the difference between an effective supplement and a disappointing product:
- Patented, clinically studied active ingredients: choose ingredients whose effectiveness has been validated by studies involving real volunteers.
- Clinical dosages: the dose should match the one used in the studies. An underdose will not produce results.
- A complete formula: active ingredients work better in synergy (collagen + vitamin C + zinc) than in isolation.
- A reliable manufacturer: ingredient traceability, product made in France, quality certifications.

Gummies for blemish-prone skin — for acne-prone skin
For skin with hormonal blemishes — inflamed spots, oily skin, cyclical cysts — Gummies for blemish-prone skin act at the source.
Their key active ingredient is Actrisave® (250 mg), an exclusive synergy of black rice and prickly pear. Prickly pear is rich in isorhamnetin, a flavonoid that helps rebalance the androgenic hormones involved in acne. Black rice, concentrated in anthocyanins, helps prevent sebum oxidation. Together, they act directly at the level of the sebaceous glands.
The formula is complemented by nettle, known for helping problem skin by contributing to clear skin, as well as zinc and vitamin B6, which supports the regulation of hormonal activity.
Lab’Epycure results involving 26 people over 3 months: 85% found their skin more beautiful, and 73% had fewer cysts and microcysts.

Conclusion
Skin beauty is built from within. Neither the best cream nor the most advanced serum can compensate for a lack of collagen, zinc, or vitamin C. Taking care of your skin from within means addressing the causes rather than the symptoms. Simple, hassle-free.
