‘My hair was falling out terribly but I’m amazed at growth with 64p-a-day collagen’

Such is the collagen’s popularity, it sells 200,000+ tubs monthly, and mature shoppers have also credited the find for making a ‘big difference to face wrinkles and fine lines’

Collagen has become something of a beauty and wellness buzzword of late. With many of us seeking ways to keep our hair, skin and nails in tip-top condition, plenty of fans turn to supplements to give them a helping hand.

Now, beauty lovers have been raving about a collagen powder that can easily be mixed into a morning tea, coffee, smoothie or water without changing the taste or texture, making it smooth to transition into busy lives. The product in question is the super popular Wellgard Collagen Powder.

Each serving offers 13,000mg of hydrolysed bovine collagen peptides and a one-off purchase of the item will set shoppers back £19.99. The brand says that each tub contains approximately 31 daily servings, meaning each daily use works out at around 64p.

Those who wish to bag a bargain may want to consider a one-time purchase of the three-pack which can currently be bought for £50.97, saving shoppers £9. There’s also the option to subscribe and save 15%, which on the single container brings the price down to £16.99.

Whilst many Wellgard Collagen users have praised the collagen for the results they’ve seen on their hair, others have also noted they’ve seen a difference in their skin. A mature shopper felt they’d noticed a change in their fine lines and wrinkles, writing: “Its not totally flavour free – slight taste but not unpleasant – mixes well in my hot drink which is how I take it.

“Started using it to help with loose skin after loosing over 33kg on a low carb lifestyle. It has improved my skin, both elasticity and suppleness a great deal.

“As I’m a mature age it has also made a big difference to my face wrinkles and fine lines. It also aids with my digestion.”

The effects of taking an oral collagen for anti-ageing on the skin have been noted in a 2023 meta-analysis published by MDPI, a peer-reviewed open access journal. The findings suggest that collagen supplementation can have positive effects on skin health, especially when considering skin elasticity.

For those seeking alternatives, the Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Unflavoured Powder 567g is currently 28% off at Holland & Barrett. Usually £49.99, it’s now £35.99.

Collagen users who prefer to opt for a different formula may wish to consider the Unfabled Collagen Gummies 60s which can be purchased at Boots for £13.99. Back to Wellgard, and the Collagen Powder has wowed many shoppers, including those in their 60s.

One fan said: “Shocked at the benefit. I was sceptical to buy this for my hair as it was falling out terribly.

“I’m amazed I can actually see new growth and it’s thickening up too. It’s taken 4 months or so but I’m so pleased. I will continue on the collagen.”

Meanwhile another raved: “Glowing skin and no more achy hips. I’ve been using this collagen powder for quite a while now and I’m honestly so impressed with the results.

“My achy arthritis hip feels so much better, and I’ve noticed the lines on my skin are much less visible. My skin is glowing, I feel healthier overall, and just generally feel great every day.

“It mixes easily and has become part of my daily routine. Highly recommend!”

Someone else said: “Brilliant product. I have started using this in my morning teas and I can already see and feel the difference.

“My hair is becoming thicker and stronger and I feel happier. It is great value for money and I would definitely recommend this collagen.”

It is worth noting that one deducted a star as they found it hard to see skin results, though they did note they’d received compliments on their hair. They said: “It does not taste bad, which was my biggest fear. I mix it in my morning coffee and barely notice the taste.

“My nails seem stronger, people tell me my hair looks great (for my age) – is my skin better or not – hard to tell, I am over 60 now so who knows.”

Despite this, another glowing review reads: “I can honestly say I have tried nearly all the collagen products. This one beats them by far – my hair, skin and nails are noticeably better. I’m 62 so perfect for menopausal ladies.”

Someone else also said: “Best collagen, noticed a difference to my energy and wellbeing from the very first day, and noticed hair growth and good skin after a few days of use, highly recommended.”

Another customer also noted they’d found a difference in their locks, writing: “My hair is now super long and silky and my skin is soft and even. I add this to my morning coffee. No taste and easy dissolves.”
