‘My face is definitely plumper and have even been told I’m looking younger. A bonus to using this product is my lips seem fuller which I wasn’t expecting’
The shift in seasons can play havoc with our skin, leading many of us to seek out new products as the chillier weather arrives. While there’s a wealth of topical creams and serums available, beauty enthusiasts have been singing the praises of a collagen supplement that costs just 55p per use, describing it as ‘fantastic’ and claiming it gets ‘great comments on skin and hair’.
Wellgard’s Collagen Powder is derived from naturally occurring Type I and III hydrolysed bovine collagen peptides and is designed to mix seamlessly into coffee, tea, smoothies and water. The formula doesn’t alter the taste or texture of food and drinks, making it a breeze to incorporate into your daily routine.
A single tub of the collagen provides 31 servings and can be bought for £16.99 on a subscribe and save deal, which equates to roughly 55p per serving.

For those not keen on committing to regular deliveries, a one-off purchase can be made for £19.99, while options to buy in three-pack or six-pack quantities are also available for shoppers looking to stock up, as reported by Mirror.
Produced in the UK, Wellgard’s collagen is also free from sugar, dairy, lactose and fat, containing only pure bovine collagen peptides. The anti-ageing benefits of oral collagen for skin were highlighted in a 2023 meta-analysis published by MDPI, a peer-reviewed open access journal, with findings suggesting that collagen supplements can have positive effects on skin, particularly in terms of elasticity.
Elsewhere, LookFantastic has slashed the price of Revive Collagen’s Enhanced Plus 10,000mgs Liquid Hydrolysed Marine Collagen Sachet (14 Day), for £44.99. Over at Holland and Barrett, the Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Unflavoured 284g is currently on offer for £22.49, reduced from £29.99.
Returning to Wellgard’s collagen, the product has been met with rave reviews, boasting a 4.8 star rating out of five on the brand’s website, based on thousands of reviews. One satisfied customer gushed: “This product is fantastic. I have been taking it for about 3 weeks and am receiving great comments on my skin and hair.
“My face is definitely plumper and have even been told I’m looking younger. A bonus to using this product is my lips seem fuller which I wasn’t expecting. Just placed a further order.”
Another fan shared: “Absolutely love this. Was recommended by a friend and I thought I’d give it a try. Felt more energy within a week and then thought maybe it was the placebo effect, however 1 month later I have ordered more and will continue to do so.
“Skin looks less lined, scraggy neck is disappearing, I feel great and being late late 50s this is such a bonus. I feel and look younger thanks to my friend’s recommendation.”
A third reviewer also sang its praises in an extensive review: “Easy to swallow once dissolved and I also think it has made a difference to my skin health – I have had many compliments on my glowing skin.”
Over on Amazon, where the product is also available, customers are just as effusive in their praise. One reviewer enthused: “Absolutely fantastic. I’ve only been using this for just over a week and I got it for my arthritis.
“To date my joints are the same but OMG my skin is amazing. Fresh, clear, dewy and younger looking, so I can only rave about this product.”
However, it’s worth noting that one user did express a minor gripe regarding the taste, writing in their review: “While this is amazing value compared to other brands I struggle with the taste and texture as it doesn’t dissolve easily into hot or cold drinks.”
