Collection: Beauty Supplements & Botanical Skin Care

Skin, hair and nails are made mostly of protein, and collagen is the most abundant protein in the body. Production slows as we get older, so a lot of people reach for collagen powders. Most of those come from animal hides or fish scales. We took a different route: give the body the amino acids, vitamin C and minerals it uses to build its own collagen, then support the skin from the outside with plant-based topicals.

If you have been searching for vegan collagen, here is the honest picture. Collagen itself only comes from animals, so collagen supplements vegan shoppers find are really precursor formulas. Our Collagen Precursor & Skin Health Essentials is exactly that: plant-based building blocks rather than collagen itself, rated 4.87 across 85 reviews.

How to choose the right skin health supplements

For collagen building blocks: start with the Collagen Precursor formula. If you want to go further, the L-Lysine Complex and L-Proline Complex (each rated 5.0) supply the two amino acids that work together in connective tissue. The Stress B Complex with Vitamin C is formulated to support collagen synthesis.†

For broad daily nutrition: the Complete Amino Acid Complex (rated 4.9 across 278 reviews) provides 20 plant-based amino acids, including all nine essentials, derived from organic vegetables. Fulvic Acid & Trace Ocean Minerals adds 70+ ionic minerals and is our most-reviewed product, rated 4.89 across 1,541 reviews.

For skin balance: Lactoferrin Complex is formulated to support a balanced skin microbiome, and Lymph Clear (cleavers, figwort and cayenne) supports healthy lymphatic flow, which many people pair with a skin routine.†

For topical care: the Botanical Nourish & Repair Cream hydrates daily, the Botanical Face Oil Serum blends jojoba, castor oil, frankincense and lavender, and the Botanical Eye Brightening Cream uses aloe vera, sunflower seed oil and chamomile for the delicate eye area. The Plant Based & Wild-Crafted Face Cleanser uses amla, soap nut and natural probiotics. If you want the full set, the Botanical Skincare Bundle includes five of our topicals.

What to expect

Supplements for skin and hair are a slow game. Skin cells turn over roughly monthly and hair grows a little each month, so plan on two to three months of consistent use before judging results. Pick one or two supplements that fill a real gap in your diet rather than stacking everything at once, and keep your topical routine simple: cleanse, hydrate, protect.

The basics still carry the most weight. Enough protein, colorful produce for vitamin C, plenty of water and good sleep give any supplement something to build on. Think of this collection as a way to fill the gaps, not a replacement for the plate.
