and the benefits of collagen

Mariel Fernández, Co-Founder of Sesen

Biography

I'm an entrepreneur, investor, and business consultant, but above all, I'm the Co-Founder of Sesēn Company. I'm passionate about holistic wellness, which is why I studied and became a certified Brain Specialist and Habit Coach. I believe that supplements, food, and the mind-brain-body connection are key to achieving concrete goals.

What led you to become an entrepreneur? And how did the idea for your business come about?

They say luck is when opportunity meets preparation, and I think that's exactly what happened in our case. When the opportunity with Sesēn came along by chance, we put all our knowledge and effort into becoming professionals and sharing the benefits of a product that, until then, few people knew about with the people of our country.


What is SESĒN's philosophy?

Sesēn is a brand that from the beginning had a very clear vision and objectives: To be an honest brand that helps improve the lifestyle of its consumers in Mexico and the world.

How important is collagen in our lives? What are its benefits?

Collagen plays a fundamental role in our lives, as it is the most abundant protein in our bodies and has diverse functions. It is essential for the health of our skin and all body systems, even though people often only associate it with beauty. However, from the age of 21, our bodies stop producing the same amount of collagen, which leads to the appearance of wrinkles, sagging skin, poor joint flexibility and mobility, leaky gut, and other issues. Taking high-quality collagen peptides like those from Sēsen can counteract these effects. The benefits for the body are incredible, helping to support the digestive and cardiovascular systems, as well as gut health.

"The benefits to the body are incredible; it helps to improve the digestive and cardiovascular systems, as well as intestinal health."

Would you recommend that everyone take supplements?

Undoubtedly, yes, but it's not the same for everyone. Our current diet is very deficient, as food lacks many nutrients. There are supplements that practically everyone should be taking, such as magnesium, collagen, and vitamin C, and others that are much more specific for very particular issues and deficiencies that must be measured with biomarkers.


In the long term, where would you like to be?

We have an extraordinary product that we want to share, therefore, our vision is to take it to every corner of the world.

-Relationship with beauty:

What is beauty to you and how do you experience it in your daily routine?
For me, beauty goes far beyond the physical; it's a state of consciousness. I like to connect with beauty in different ways: meditating, working in beautiful spaces, dressing the way I like, eating nourishing foods, and with routines and practices that connect me with this energy of beauty in everything I do.

What or who inspires you in your day-to-day life?
I don't think it's a who, I think it's a how. My inspiration always comes from expanded and fully realized versions of myself.

Who are your beauty icons?
My grandmother was from this country, so coming to Spain wasn't just a professional achievement, but a personal one as well. She was a person who always lived life to the fullest, embodying the highest standards of beauty.

What's the best advice you've ever received?
Haste makes waste.

-Beauty Questionnaire:
What is your skincare routine?

My skincare essentials: Day, a good vitamin C and a good sunscreen. Night, a powerful retinol and a moisturizer.

My must-have supplements: Obviously collagen, berberine, D3+K2, and omega 3

My essential habits: Consuming plenty of dark green leafy vegetables, efficient hydration (with electrolytes), exercise, and good rest.

A foolproof trick or product
My Sesēn collagen, I can't live without it. I take two scoops a day and alternate between the Silver and Pink; it's amazing what it's done for my body.

How do you take care of your beauty from the inside out?
I do Kundalini every day, my supplements are the backbone of my routine, and I'm very careful about what I eat.
