‘After a few weeks of daily use, I noticed my skin looking more hydrated and my nails growing stronger. I also appreciate the added vitamin C and hyaluronic acid, it feels like a complete beauty-from-within formula’
It’s inevitable that as we get older, our skin begins to give our age away without even mentioning it. From dull, dark spots to wrinkles and fine lines, it’s something we’re all conscious of. While there are a range of creams and lotions, some of us need an extra helping hand when it comes to boosting our collagen production.
This crucial protein starts slowing down as the years go on, which in turn reduces skin elasticity, leading to sagging skin and wrinkles, while also affecting joint mobility. But by adding a collagen supplement into our routine, orally, our skin and overall joint health can be massively improved. One brand that has received a lot of love from beauty fans is iHerb, whose California Gold Nutrition, Collagen Peptides Plus powder has helped users ‘turn back the years’ regarding signs of ageing, and leaves their skin ‘glowing again’.
What’s more is shoppers can currently get this highly rated collagen supplement for less. Usually costing £26.06 for a one time purchase or £24.76 for its monthly subscription model – which essentially breaks the price down to 82p per sachet considering there are 30 in a pack – the brand is offering 20% off its collagen supplement when entering the special discount code 20COLLAGENUK at checkout.
It’s recommended to be taken on an empty stomach at least one hour before or two hours after meals and can be added to routines to support and boost skin health, hair strength, nail growth, and overall wellbeing. The formula is also gluten and soy free – although contains fish so isn’t suitable for vegetarians – and has the option for either a pomegranate or lemon flavour.
Those who’d rather an unflavoured option can get the California Gold Nutrition, CollagenUP®, Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen Peptides with Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C (pictured below) for £29.04 (without the discount code) as a 464 g packet.

The iHerb California Gold Nutrition Collagen Peptide Powder comes in a pomegranate or lemon flavour and is available as a one off purchase or a monthly subscription model.
The California Gold Nutrition Collagen Peptides Plus powder is made with Plus Vitamin C and Hyaluronic Acid as well as its hero ingredient, hydrolyzed marine collagen peptides, and comes in a powder packaged in sachet, making it easy to take on the go. The packets can be mixed into water and drunk.
If the powder-form isn’t quite as appealing, there are a range of supplement options out there, for example the Revive Collagen Enhanced Plus Premium Liquid Marine Collagen Drink is currently on sale at Holland & Barrett for £31.49 from £44.99 for 14 sachets and is a liquid form with hydrolysed marine collagen as well as vitamins B6, B12, C and D.
For those who prefer capsules, MyVitamins’ Collagen Capsules, which contain 400mg of collagen per serving, are an affordable alternative at £3.59 per tub.
IHerb’s collagen powder, however, has left users thoroughly impressed with the results from daily use, with over 2,500 glowing reviews and a 4.6 star rating. One such shopper praised the ‘complete beauty-from-within formula’ and said: “I’ve tried several collagen powders, but this one from California Gold Nutrition is a favourite. The pomegranate flavour is light and refreshing, not too sweet, and no weird aftertaste. I love that it comes in individual sachets – perfect for travel or tossing into my bag for the day.
“After a few weeks of daily use, I noticed my skin looking more hydrated and my nails growing stronger. I also appreciate the added vitamin C and hyaluronic acid, it feels like a complete beauty-from-within formula. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a convenient, great-tasting collagen boost!”
Someone else noted: “The results have been amazing! My skin is a wonderful, softer texture! This product is turning back the years! Wrinkles are minimizing, and my skin glows again!”
Another added: “It works! It tastes great, doesn’t clump, and dissolves well. My skin was glowing within a month!”
While some people enjoyed the pomegranate flavour, others were too keen on it, with one three star review reading: “Not sure about taste of pomegranate. Prefer strawberry or raspberry or pineapple.. believe the combination of the ingredients is good for the skin.”
Another shared how they simply don’t enjoy the powder texture, stating: “I was hoping these would be better than some other collagen powders I’ve tried; however, I’ve decided I don’t like collagen powder. The packaging is convenient to take on the go or to provide easy dosing. Collagen is a great addition to my diet, but I’ll just have to go with capsules because I really don’t like the taste of the powders.”
That sad, for the most part, the iHerb collagen supplement has been a hit with beauty fans, with many people adding how it’s helped with joint pain: “High quality marine collagen powder, effective results, and convenient packaging. I’ve noticed improvements in skin, hair, nails and joints within a month. The portable powder sticks are easy to use and perfect for travel.”
