What to look for in beauty support

  • Start with your goal, then choose a formula designed to support it.

  • Skin appearance: Look for collagen products with licensed skin-related benefits. 
  • Broader support: Combination formulas may include collagen, biotin, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid. 
  • Compare formulas: More ingredients or higher potency doesn’t automatically mean better.

  • Look for quality: Check for an eight-digit NPN and quality testing.⁵
