“I’m very into the possibilities for NAD+ supplements (even as studies are still rolling in!) and just started taking Elysium,” says VOGUE beauty editor at large, Arden Fanning Andrews. “I’ll report back with how hot I feel throughout 2025.” We’re confident she’ll report back with positive findings.
NAD+ is an essential molecule that’s present in all the cells in our body. It’s involved in cellular energy production, DNA maintenance, and overall cellular health. In skin, maintaining healthy cells is essential for youthful collagen production and skin barrier function. As we age, however, our NAD+ levels naturally decline—by almost 60% in skin, between young adulthood and middle age.
Basis by Elysium Health is clinically proven to increase NAD+ levels by 40% to target cellular aging at its source. It’s trusted and recommended by top dermatologists like Daniel Belkin, M.D., who takes both Basis and Mosaic (Elysium’s skin aging and collagen support supplement). “The hope is that they will slow the aging process,” says Belkin in an interview with Allure. “I don’t have an identical twin to compare myself to in five years, but hopefully if I did, I’d be ahead of the game.”
