Collagen supplements are a hot topic in today’s beauty industry, and there are often opinions on them: some claim that there isn’t much reliable evidence to show a definite improvement in skin, hair, and nails, while others claim that. However, I’ve personally used collagen powders and capsules for years and have always enjoyed how well they work for me. This one is a new, enduring favorite.

Verve’s Naked Beauty Collagen works perfectly for this by adding powder to my morning smoothie, which is how I like to take collagen supplements. It’s made up of 13 other skin-boosting ingredients, including biotin, zinc, vitamin C, and probiotics, and is a super-blend made of 12 500 mg of marine collagen. It has been a big help to me as I get my day started for months.

First of all, while some customers have complained that mixing the drink with water doesn’t make it particularly flavorful, I find that whizzing it together with oat milk, frozen berries, a spoonful of peanut butter, and a few oats gives it a slight vanilla flavor and thickens it. I consume this until at least 1:00 p.m. when I wake up around 10 a.m.

I’ve seen results even though I only take half of the recommended dose, which is one scoop instead of two. This means that I can use one of these large pouches for two months rather than one, which costs about £1 per serving.

I frequently try new skincare, and my skin appears to have a mind of its own: sometimes I have no problems, but occasionally I get months of breakouts. Verve claims that customers can expect to see improvements like increased skin elasticity, a decrease in wrinkles, and extra hydration from taking this regularly and over time.

However, my nails have made a noticeable improvement. They used to be so weak and bendy, constantly splitting, but now they’re much stronger and never flake or split, which I attribute to using this beauty powder on a regular basis.

Although good collagen supplements aren’t inexpensive, as long as I can afford them, I’ll always take these because they fit easily into my routine and actually make a difference.

Try Gold Collagen Pure, which costs £30 for 30 days (one of the cheapest of the various varieties the brand sells), if you don’t like smoothies and prefer a “one gulp and done” collagen supplement in place. Vida Glow Natural Marine Collagen, available for £33.15 for 30 doses, is a popular choice among beauty editors because it actually tastes good when mixed with water.
