Great in concept but the price point was a bit much. I did love that you could earn rewards when you "checked in" that you took your vitamins everyday.

high price point
This review is for their whey protein powder only. It is my favorite of all I have tried. Minimal ingredients, my ideal sweeteners (part cane sugar, part monk fruit), and it mixes rather well with just a shake or a milk frother. Only comes in chocolate or vanilla, but that's all I really need.
It was really nice to see the recommended vitamins from their quiz. I used them for a few months and while their packing is compostable, my local area doesn’t support composting so it still felt wasteful to me. During the pandemic they switched to bottle packaging for a little bit and I felt like I could get the same vitamins for cheaper elsewhere
I used care/of out of my own pocket for a month or so, and, to me, it just wasn't worth it.

Offering medication, not just vitamins.
fun to customize
Feedback
Everyday you gotta take so many pills! It's a burden for someone like me. I don't enjoy swallowing pills.
Taking vitamins is a natural part of my routine every day and I so loved the idea of customizable vitamins that I decided to give this a shot last year. If you're not too sure what to get, the Care/of quiz is a great, comprehensive questionnaire that asks you about your needs and recommends various vitamins accordingly. Packaging is beautiful and customer service is amazing. The fact that the vitamins come in individual daily packets is super convenient, especially for people on the go.
Feedback
Depending on how many vitamins you order, can tend towards the pricey side. Also, there are not enough medical-related questions on the questionnaire to check for any products that might interfere with existing health conditions or medications (herbal supplements are recommended if you are open to trying them).

I've been using Care/of for maybe a year or longer. I initially got a discount from a YouTuber I watch. It honestly makes taking vitamins so much easier. I really needed this convenient solution, especially after being told by my doctor that I'm low on B12 due to my low-meat diet.
I liked the idea. Tried it for a month so I don't know if that's enough to see any results but I just felt I could get individual bottles of supplements and do the same thing on my own.
I tried care/of and felt like it wasn’t as customized to me as they were trying to make me believe. I took the vitamins for a month but felt sick, which can be a side effect to one of the supplements in my pack which I found out after discussing with a doctor friend. I didn’t continue my subscription but had another one arrive. I tried to return it, but no luck. I’m back to managing my own blend of supplements and generally feel better about it than I did with Care/of
Feedback
Make subscriptions easier to manage, and notify before the first refill is sent.
I tried a few months ago for a trial of the products and I found myself forgetting to take all the meds. The packets are convenient, however, there are a lot of tabs in the packages that I feel like I am taking 10 pills a day. The ingredients are okay and I did not feel any different.
Feedback
It is cool how the pills are customizable.
I love that these are personalized - I got to pick exactly what supplements I wanted to add to my routine. Unfortunately, there were just way too many pills to consume each morning, which put me off taking them... and the boxes started piling up. I think this model just isn't for me - I do better with a single multivitamin.

I like how personalized the health plan is, but every pack is loaded with pills that it kind of concerns me the amount of pills I have to take every day. I wish there were different forms of the vitamins/supplements I could take so it didn't feel like I was popping a bunch of pills. Maybe a powder, wellness routines, or quarterly check-ins?
I tried this for two months because I thought that the personalization is very cute, but honestly I think I could've put the same regimen together myself for much cheaper -- the supplements were things I can get for much cheaper at Whole Foods or GNC.
I took Care/of vitamins for about 8 months but never really felt like it made a difference in how I felt or how my skin looked. Towards the end of my use, I also started getting headaches and couldn't figure out why. Once I stopped taking Care/of, they stopped all together. I don't think I needed all of the supplements that were prescribed to me.
Made the routine of taking vitamins a breeze.
Feedback
Feels wasteful because each day is individually packaged. Would be cool if it was biodegradable or compostable packaging that could be added to your green trash bin.
I loved this experience as a beginner to taking vitamins and not really knowing where to begin. The personalized quiz was very helpful in getting me started. I love the packaging and that you can track daily usage on the app and earn points.
Feedback
After a few months, I started to figure what worked for me and what didn't work for me and took things in my own hands but it was a great way to get me started.
I appreciate that the packaging is now biodegradable, especially since it's separated in easy-to-use daily packs. The quotes on the packs are cute and nice as well. The overall quality seems to be good, however some of the vitamins are HUGE and not always able to break in half. There's an odor to them as well, but that's easier to ignore. I also felt pressured to add more & more until I was taking almost 10 vitamins a day. I did love the vegan options, though.
Feedback
Would love to see smaller vitamins and/or maybe more combo vitamins if possible.
I took Care/of medicine for three months and I loved it!
Feedback
Sometimes they recommend too many pills a day and their subscription can be pricey.
Love the personalization, Finally developed a habit of taking my vitamins. I've been feeling great and very happy with the service
I liked the personalization aspect to the process, however, I ended up with 10 pills to take a day. The packaging made it very easy to manage every morning and I appreciated that they provided easy instructions on how to ensure it was recycled effectively because otherwise it would have felt like a lot of waste.
Feedback
I didn't feel like I needed to take that many pills a day and I didn't notice any tangible improvements in any aspect of my life that I had highlighted in their initial quiz
