6. Choose natural supplements for skin elasticity
Gelatin
Unless your daily diet consists of foods like oxtail and chicken feet, then it may be hard to get enough gelatin to maintain skin elasticity. A study conducted at Stanford University found that supplementing with 250 milligrams of gelatin a day improved skin elasticity.
Borage oil
The study concluded that also adding borage seed oil in combination with gelatin seemed to demonstrate even greater skin elasticity.
Collagen
Many people supplement with collagen to help joint pain. But now collagen is becoming more popular as a treatment for aging skin. A German study found that taking 2.5 to 5 grams of hydrolyzed collagen significantly improved elasticity after eight weeks.
