We recommend HydroPeptide's new Nimni Cream ($110), a collagen-boosting cream you apply at night to help improve elasticity while you sleep. Another great option is Algenist's Genius Liquid Collagen ($115) which contains collagen amino acids to bolster the skin's matrix, microalgae to hydrate and nourish, and patented alguronic acid.
