Background: As the population ages, oral hydrolyzed collagen supplements are gaining traction. However, few clinical studies on the skin health of hydrolyzed porcine collagen combined with fish collagen. Objective: This study investigates whether TripleUp collagen beverage has skincare and anti-inflammatory effects. Methods: Using collagen beverage to treat epidermal keratinocytes and examine ROS, HA, inflammatory factor, and moisturizing-related gene expressions (Tgm1, Krt14, FLG-F, GBA, HAS3). Fifty subjects were recruited into a placebo and collagen beverage group for four weeks and then examined skin condition at 0, 2, 4 weeks. Results: TripleUp collagen beverage decreased IL-8 and ROS expression and increased moisturizing-related gene expressions. In addition, collagen beverages increase skin collagen, elasticity, moisture, and decreased spots. Conclusions: Thus, TripleUp collagen beverage included hydrolyzed porcine, and fish collagen and vitamin C can improve skin condition.
