Why You'll Love It

Instantly smoother, more radiant skin.

This is a vegan collagen alternative built from corn and soy proteins, engineered to match the conditioning, smoothing and moisture-binding performance of animal-sourced collagen. It lays down a flexible, breathable film on the skin, and under everyday humidity it actually holds onto water better than the original.

Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein handles three things simultaneously: it cuts down on water loss through the skin, draws in ambient moisture from the air, and smooths the look of micro-irregularities for a more even, refined surface.

Add organic glycerin for extra hydration and prebiotic inulin to feed a balanced skin microbiome, and you get instant radiance with hydration that holds. In our consumer trial, 90% reported smoother, better-hydrated skin after the first application.

Fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, and 96-hour patch tested on reactive skin. If your skin doesn't get along with retinoids, AHAs and other go-to anti-aging actives, this delivers real smoothing and conditioning, minus the irritation.

Directions

Add 1–2 drops to your daily moisturizer and apply as usual. That's it. The concentrated format means a little goes a long way, and your moisturizer handles the work of spreading it evenly across your skin.

Use it morning and evening for best results. Want to get strategic about it? Pair it with the Peptides 5% Smoothing Booster in the morning for long-term firmness, then switch to Vegan Collagen at night for overnight conditioning and restoration. A genuinely great duo.

It also blends beautifully into serums and body products, if you're feeling adventurous.

Key Ingredients

  • Vegan Collagen

    Silky-soft skin on your agenda? This all-natural active is for you. Collagen conditions and hydrates skin at speed to give you an enviably healthy glow. Usually animal-derived, ours is sourced from corn and soy proteins - and works all the better for it.

Sarah Brown, Pai Founder

"While Peptides prompt the generation of collagen in the skin, topical Collagen works its magic on the surface, leaving it seamlessly smooth for a luminous finish. It’s usually animal-derived, but ours is vegan – and studies show this certified natural, vegetable alternative even outperforms the competition."

SARAH BROWN
FOUNDER, PAI SKINCARE

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Vegan Collagen 0.9% Restoring Booster actually work on skin?

The hydrolyzed vegetable protein forms a thin, breathable film on your skin's surface that does three things at once: locks in moisture by reducing water loss, draws in hydration from the air like a humectant, and physically fills in micro-irregularities for an instantly smoother texture. It's a topical conditioning treatment, not a supplement that takes weeks to kick in.

What results can I expect, and how quickly?

Results are immediate. In a consumer trial of 55 women with dry, dehydrated or sensitive skin, 90% said skin felt hydrated and smoother after use, 87% said it had a soothing effect, and 80% said skin looked more radiant. These results were measured straight after application, so you don't need to wait weeks to see a difference.

What skin types and concerns is this best for?

It's designed for anyone dealing with dryness, dullness, or loss of smoothness, whether from ageing, environmental stress, or seasonal changes. The formula is non-comedogenic, so it won't clog pores, and it's suited to dry, combination, and balanced skin types. In a consumer trial of 55 women, 87% said their skin felt less dry after use.

How do I use this booster?

Add 1-2 drops into your daily moisturiser and apply as normal, morning or evening or both. It pairs particularly well with the Peptides 5% Smoothing Booster: use Vegan Collagen in the evening for overnight conditioning and Peptides in the morning for long-term firmness support.

Why should I choose a booster format instead of a collagen serum or cream?

A booster gives you a concentrated dose of a single active in just 1-2 drops, mixed into whatever moisturiser you already use. That means you're getting a meaningful amount of the protein active in every application, rather than the trace quantities typically diluted across a multi-ingredient serum or cream. It enhances your routine without replacing anything, which makes it more versatile and more cost-effective per use.

Is this suitable for sensitive or reactive skin?

Absolutely. The formula contains no fragrance, no essential oils, and no harsh preservatives. It uses a gentle natural preservative system based on radish root ferment filtrate and has been 96-hour patch tested on volunteers with reactive skin, going beyond standard industry requirements.

Can I use this during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Yes, this booster is confirmed safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The formula is 99.99% naturally derived with no retinoids, no essential oils, and nothing on the typical pregnancy-avoid list.

What ingredients are in the Vegan Collagen 0.9% Restoring Booster and what does each do?

The star active is hydrolyzed vegetable protein (0.9%), which forms a breathable film that smooths and retains moisture. Organic glycerin acts as a humectant to support hydration, while inulin (chicory root prebiotic) supports your skin's microbiome. The preservative system uses Leuconostoc/radish root ferment filtrate, a gentle antimicrobial from fermented radish, alongside tocopherol (vitamin E) as an antioxidant stabiliser.

What does the prebiotic inulin in the formula do?

Inulin, derived from chicory root, selectively feeds beneficial skin bacteria while inhibiting problematic ones like Staphylococcus aureus. This creates a healthier skin microbiome that reinforces the booster's conditioning and barrier-supporting effects over time.

What certifications does this product have?

It's COSMOS Natural certified, Vegan, and Cruelty-Free with Leaping Bunny approval. Pai is also a certified B Corp. The formula is free from parabens, silicones, sulfates, alcohol, mineral oil, phthalates, dyes, and gluten.

How does this compare to other Pai Labs Boosters?

Each Pai Labs Booster delivers a single concentrated active for a specific concern. Vegan Collagen is the "Restoring" booster, focused on instant conditioning, smoothing, and moisture retention. If your priorities are brightening, try Stabilised Vitamin C 20%; for long-term firmness, Peptides 5%; for deep hydration, Hyaluronic Acid 0.3%.

What makes this different from other vegan collagen products?

Most "vegan collagen" products are actually supplements containing vitamins and amino acids that aim to support your body's own collagen production over time. This is a topical film-forming protein derived from corn and soy, engineered to replicate the functional properties of animal-derived collagen on the skin's surface. Supplier testing confirmed it outperforms a 1% animal-derived soluble collagen solution for moisture binding at humidity levels below 60%, which covers most real-world conditions your skin encounters.

Why choose this over animal-derived collagen skincare?

It's not just an ethical swap. Equilibrium moisture isotherm testing over 16 weeks showed this plant-derived protein has superior moisture-binding capacity compared to animal-derived soluble collagen at humidity below 60%. Since skin is almost always exposed to sub-60% humidity, that translates to better hydration retention in the conditions you actually live in.

Q&A

Bonjour, Votre booster au collagène est-il compatible avec la grossesse? Merci.
Bonjour Judith, Oui, ce produit convient aussi bien pendant la grossesse que pendant l'allaitement. Équipe Expérience Client Pai
Hi, I've been mixing boosters directly with my rosehip oil for a long time now and it's always worked great - my face feels juicy and glowing (I apply them at night). But after seeing in these Q&As that boosters should be applied first and oil layered on top, I tried that and didn't love the result - my skin felt tighter and not as bouncy. Can I keep applying them all at the same time if my skin seems to love it, or will I not be making the most of their individual benefits if I do that? Thanks!
Hi Bee, We do recommend to mix the boosters in with a serum or a moisturiser, however we understand everyone's skin is different and therefore, we would advise you to do what works best for your skin. If you prefer the way your skin feels when you mix in the booster with the Rosehip Oil and not an alternative order, you can definitely continue to do so. Pai Customer Experience Team
Hi, a bit hard to choose between a rose-hip oil, this booster and vitamin C face cream as it seems all of them are doing 30-40s age skin brighter and better. Can you please recommend what is the difference?
Hi Jane, Thank you for getting in touch. You could add Vegan Collagen Booster to C-2 Believe Moisturiser each morning. This booster works on the surface of the skin and helps to lock in hydration. The Vitamin C in the Moisturiser helps to protect and brighten the skin. You could use Rosehip Oil as an overnight treatment a few times a week. You might like to add Vitamin C Booster to Rosehip Oil too. Rosehip Oil is great at regenerating and repairing skin.
Bonjour, Peut-on l’utiliser sur une peau grasse et acnéique ? Cordialement
Salut Chanel! Notre booster de collagène végétalien est le plus efficace sur les peaux sèches et ternes et vous pouvez trouver notre [booster d'acide salicylique](https://www.paiskincare.fr/products/salicylic-acid-booster?utm_source=zendesk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=zendesk-email) plus adapté à votre type de peau. Cependant, il n'aggravera pas la peau grasse et les éruptions cutanées et peut donc être utilisé sur ce type de peau si vous préférez. Nous espérons que cela vous aidera! Pai Customer Experience Team
Bonjour, Puis-je mélanger le booster collagen avec le booster de vitamine C dans ma routine svp ? Merci de votre retour,
Hi Carhene! Yes, you can mix the two products together and apply them directly to your skin, or add them to your serum or moisturiser. Further detail can be found [here](https://support.paiskincare.live/hc/fr/articles/7789014271133-Comment-utiliser-les-boosters). We hope this helps! Pai Customer Experience Team
