This is where the power of motivational quotes comes in...

Stop wasting your money on those insanely expensive wrinkle cream and get into the power of gelatin & natural oils. There are many recipes for gelatin (essentially cooked, powdered collagen) based foods and shelves full of skin-safe oils (such as extra virgin organic coconut oil). Consume 1 tbsp of gelatin and apply coconut oil (or an oil that is best for your skin) everyday and watch those wrinkles fade away into the night :)

Taking Gelatin internally provides the body the building blocks to build great skin, hair and nails from the inside out and helps reduce wrinkles (and stretch marks, as I’ve found since mine are vanishing this time while I’m still pregnant!). http://ow.ly/K9dCr

Gelatin can benefit hair, skin, nails, digestion, immune function, joints and more. Find out how some unusual ways to use Gelatin to boost health!
