Recently, L’Oreal Age Perfect Collagene Royal’s second-generation upgrade was launched, claiming to have added recombinant collagen for the first time. CHAILEEDO discovered that L’Oreal stated that the recombinant collagen used is sourced from a special beauty-grade supplier.
Comparing the claims of L’Oreal Age Perfect Collagene Royal regarding recombinant collagen, which is said to be 100% homologous to type III collagen in human skin and possesses a clear triple-helix structure, some netizens speculate that L’Oreal may be collaborating with the Chinese recombinant collagen company, Jinbo Bio. It is worth mentioning that a few days ago, Jinbo Biotechnology also mentioned their collaboration with L’Oreal during an investor communication meeting.
It is reported that L’Oreal Age Perfect Collagene Royal is the premium series in L’Oreal’s skincare line, highly loved and sought after by consumers, and regarded as the “star cream” of the L’Oreal brand. Currently, L’Oreal Age Perfect Collagene Royal Facial Cream ranks second in repurchase and positive reviews on Tmall’s firming cream list. The introduction of recombinant collagen in this product also demonstrates L’Oreal’s recognition of Chinese ingredients.
In recent years, as anti-aging has become a key focus for consumers, recombinant collagen has gradually become a leading ingredient in the anti-aging industry and has gained momentum. Chinese companies such as Jinbo Bio, Giant Biogene, and Trautec are leading the development of this Chinese ingredient. Some netizens jokingly commented, “Finally, the Chinese beauty industry has gained a breath. Instead of following L’Oreal’s ‘Bosygen,’ they have entered the recombinant collagen track with L’Oreal and started working for ‘Chinese ingredients’.” (Chinese ingredienets means that the ingredients and raw materials used in cosmetics are all made or found in China)
