  • Love their collegean protein powder. Plus it’s a truly affordable brand if you shop at Costco especially!

  • I’ve used the vital proteins peptides for a number of months. Although my hair is already full, expected more results of my nails and skin. The powder does dissolve well in hot coffee.

  • There was such a noticeable difference to my skin and hair after starting vital proteins marine collagen that others were asking what I was doing differently. The CAPSULES are easy to digest with no bad aftertaste.

    Feedback

    The powder form of the marine collagen is intolerable, it tastes like dirty lake water.

  • I just started this brand but dissolving is cold liquids is impossible. There is an odd taste but not worth discontinuing using it. With such high reviews I’m hopeful it’ll start improving my hair and skin

  • I like it i used for about a year really see changes in my skin and hair

    I bouth at store
  • This brand is great! I like to add to my 32 ounce bottle blender 3/4 full of water, 2 scoops of vital proteins collagen, 1 scoop of pink lemonade powder, and plop in my metal shaker ball and shake like crazy! I do feel that it helps my skin, hair, and nails. My mother drinks it religiously in the mornings! I love the brand and I keep a large bottle in my pantry to restock my little bottle in my cupboards.

  • somewhat pricey but the collagen peptides are simply an incredible & versatile product. they are great in smoothies, coffee, and any homemade protein dessert-type recipe. such a powerful product.

  • Loaded with protein and is completely tasteless as an added supplement to coffee. I noticed my knees are as “crickety” when I’m consistently taking this. Not sure it’s effective for hair and nail strength as I’ve not seen dramatic changes there.

  • Vital Proteins make a great collagen supplement in my opinion. It mixes very well with coffee and is never clumpy after mixing. And after a few months of consistent use I really saw a difference in my hair and nails, and I was just taking it mainly for my bones!

  • Why is the lid always so hard to open though, anyway I guess we won't really know if ingesting collagen is truly helpful in the long run but at least getting it on sale at Costco is the best option. I don't like to add it to my drinks though because it does alter the taste imo.

  • I love that I can put it in my coffee and it dissolves. I wish the lid was just a pop top, to make it easier access. I didn't notice a difference in my hair or skin.
