WHITENING + COLLAGEN? Anti-oxidant and anti-aging. Who doesn't want those? As you all know, I'm such a COLLAGEN fan since I'm not now on my 30's. Been taking collagen since 2016/2017 with on and off periods last year. I took collagen again early this year and stop again last July. So glad that a month ago (October), I started to include collagen again in my everyday routine plus also added whitening supplements!
To begin with, (not to brag or whatsoever) I was already born with a fair skin. During my teenage years, I had a huge hormonal pimple problems which leads me to use derma products to get rid and prevent pimple breakouts. These products tend to shed off layer of the skin and of course, I only use these products for my face (not on my neck or body) thus making my face a bit lighter than the rest of my body. Although, I think my body tone is already keeping up with my facial tone but I still use whitening products to lighten my dark spots such as the elbows and knees. Also, I want to keep and improve a brighter skin.
Today I'll be reviewing 2 new products which I've used for a month.

Verdict:
Currently, I used both products for everyday. 1 scoop of Premium Collagen + 1 tablet of Aiya Collagen. The reason is that I think I don't need much of a whitening supplement so I'm good with 1 tab of Aiya Collagen. While, I only take 1 scoop of collagen to maximize or lengthen the use. 
Last month, my skin started to have pimple breakouts and after taking this, I noticed that it lessen my pimples, helps to dry it up and even prevents it. Currently, I don't have any pimple just a month after using these. The dark marks did fade and my pores are slightly smaller.
I didn't paid that much attention with the whitening effects but I started to get compliments how whiter and brighter my skin is on the 4th week of use. I also noticed that my elbows and knees are slightly lighter compared to before.
It's not that obvious but I have a huge tummy. Yes, I'm slim but all the fats are hidden in my body! Haha I'm already 30 and fats are starting to build up. With a sedentary lifestyle, all the fats just goes into my tummy and other parts of the body. Lately, I've been trying to have a healthy lifestyle by working out and eating healthy foods. The Premium Collagen also helps with slimming although my only goal is to get rid of the fats in my tummy (not really the usual diet since I'm already 45 kg and wanted to gain more weight). Not sure if it did helped on that part but I noticed that I am more thirsty than usual thus drinking more water. Drinking more water makes the stomach full and maybe that can be reason to avoid eating. Although, drinking water also has a lot of benefits as it naturally flushes toxins in the body making the skin soft, smooth and hydrated.
As well as in whitening, months of use plus also using different whitening products will help speed up the whitening process. Lifestyle such as sun exposure, products use, current skin tone also may affect on how soon you can see the whitening effects. Patience is really a MUST.
Overall, I love both products and highly recommend them. Adding these supplements will not always help make your skin brighter but also helps to boosts immune system.
