Collagen+ and ageLOC Boost System (South Africa)

Inside-Out Anti-Ageing for South African Skin

Whether you're navigating the relentless UV index on Johannesburg's highveld, recovering from a weekend of Drakensberg trail running, or managing the dual assault of Cape Town's South-Easter wind and coastal sun, South African skin faces compounding ageing stressors across every Fitzpatrick skin tone. The Collagen+ and ageLOC Boost System addresses this from two directions simultaneously — a daily marine collagen supplement rebuilds structural protein from within, while the ageLOC Boost microcurrent and LED device stimulates your skin's own renewal mechanisms from the surface. At R5,299, this bundle saves R490 versus purchasing each component separately.

What's Included

• ageLOC Boost Device — handheld microcurrent + red LED facial treatment tool
• ageLOC Boost Activating Serum — conductive serum formulated to work with the device
• Beauty Focus Collagen+ liquid supplement — marine collagen peptides with synthesis cofactors

How to Use

Boost Device: Apply a 5-minute daily facial treatment using the Activating Serum as a conductive medium. Glide the device across clean skin in upward motions.
Beauty Focus Collagen+: Consume one 50 ml serving daily, ideally at a consistent time each day.
Timeline: Combined results are typically visible from 4–6 weeks, with optimal results emerging at 8–12 weeks of consistent use.

Who This Bundle Is For

Best Suited For

• Adults across all skin tones (Fitzpatrick II–VI) seeking a comprehensive, at-home anti-ageing protocol
• Those already using either the Boost device or Collagen+ who want the synergistic inside-out approach
• Skin experiencing early-to-moderate loss of firmness, collagen density, or skin vitality — common concerns in all South African climates
• South Africans who prefer structured, measurable skincare investment over ad hoc product purchasing

Less Suited For

• Individuals with pacemakers or implanted electronic devices (device contraindication)
• Pregnant or nursing individuals (consult a healthcare professional before use)
• Those with fish allergies — Collagen+ contains fish-derived ingredients
• Those seeking only a topical skincare routine without the supplementation component

Pairs Well With

• A broad-spectrum SPF 30–50 moisturiser — UV protection is essential for all skin tones across South Africa's high-UV environment, as unprotected exposure accelerates the very collagen degradation this bundle targets
• A targeted hydrating serum or sleeping mask to support overnight skin recovery

What Makes This Bundle Different

Most anti-ageing products act on a single pathway — either topically or internally. This bundle is built on the principle that collagen loss occurs both at the structural (dermal protein) level and the cellular stimulation level. Here's how each component contributes:

Beauty Focus Collagen+: Internal Structural Support

Marine collagen peptides are delivered in a liquid format for efficient absorption. The formulation includes synthesis cofactors — nutrients that support the body's own collagen-production processes — rather than relying on collagen peptides alone. This distinction matters: delivering collagen building blocks alongside the nutrients required to utilise them addresses the problem more completely than peptides in isolation.

ageLOC Boost System: External Cellular Stimulation

The Boost device uses two proven technologies in a single 5-minute treatment:

• Microcurrent: Low-level electrical current that mimics the body's own bio-electrical signals, supporting facial muscle tone and cellular energy (ATP) production — a mechanism supported by published literature on microcurrent therapy.
• Red LED: Photobiomodulation using red-spectrum light to support skin cell activity and complement the microcurrent's firming effect.

The Activating Serum included in the bundle is specifically formulated as a conductive medium for the device, ensuring effective energy transmission — it is not a generic serum applied separately.

The Combined Rationale

Collagen+ supplies the raw materials and cofactors for collagen synthesis from within. The Boost device stimulates the cellular environment in which that collagen is deposited. Used together over an 8–12 week period, the two components work on complementary pathways rather than duplicating effort — which is the core argument for the bundle format over purchasing either product independently.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does delivery work for this bundle in South Africa?

Orders placed through nubestskin.com/za are shipped from Nu Skin South Africa. Standard shipping is R99, with free delivery on orders over R1,999 — this bundle qualifies for free shipping. Estimated delivery is 3–7 business days to major metros including Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and Pretoria. Remote areas may take longer.

Does this bundle save money versus buying the components separately?

Yes. The ageLOC Boost System is listed at R4,699 and Beauty Focus Collagen+ at R1,090 — a combined total of R5,789 if purchased individually. The bundle is priced at R5,299, saving R490.

How long before I see results from using both products together?

According to product information, combined results are typically visible from 4–6 weeks of consistent daily use, with optimal results at 8–12 weeks. Neither component is designed to produce overnight change — both work by supporting underlying skin biology over time.

Can I use the Boost device if I have darker skin (Fitzpatrick IV–VI)?

Yes. Microcurrent and red LED technologies act at the subcutaneous and muscular level rather than at the pigment (melanin) layer. The device is suitable for use across all Fitzpatrick skin types. As always, darker skin tones should still use SPF protection daily, as UV damage — including hyperpigmentation — occurs regardless of complexion, particularly given South Africa's high ambient UV levels.

Is the Collagen+ supplement safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Collagen+ contains fish-derived ingredients. If you are pregnant or nursing, it is recommended that you consult a qualified healthcare professional before use. The Boost device is also contraindicated during pregnancy. Both components carry individual safety notices — read all included documentation carefully.

Can the Boost device be used with my existing skincare routine?

The Boost device is designed for use with the included Activating Serum, which acts as a conductive medium for the microcurrent. It should not be substituted with arbitrary serums or oils, as these may not conduct the electrical current appropriately. Follow the specific usage instructions provided with the device, and apply your regular serums and moisturisers after the treatment session.

Is the Collagen+ supplement regulated in South Africa?

Beauty Focus Collagen+ is an oral supplement. Complementary medicines sold in South Africa fall under SAHPRA's (South African Health Products Regulatory Authority) regulatory framework — look for compliance information on the product label. If you have specific questions about regulatory status, consult a pharmacist or healthcare professional.

What happens after the included Collagen+ supply is used up?

Beauty Focus Collagen+ can be repurchased separately once the bundle supply is exhausted. The ageLOC Boost device is a durable item — only the Activating Serum and Collagen+ supplement require periodic repurchasing. Both are available individually on nubestskin.com/za.
