If I'd reviewed this product when I first started using it, it would be 5 stars. People noticed the difference in my skin. Now that they've changed the packaging, I have to take off 1 star. I do appreciate they're trying to be environmentally friendly, but the new packaging is impossible for me to open. I can't get enough of a grip on the tab I'm supposed to pull, and if I do, I can't pull hard enough to open the container. Thankfully I still had a plastic tub from before because I have to cut the new ones open and dump the contents into the plastic tub. Read more

Product is great and I’ll continue to order. Mixabilty is good enough with at least half cup of liquid and taste is acceptable to me. What most impressed me is after a month my finger nails have stopped splitting which has been a problem for sometime. However opening the container is like breaking into Ft Knox. I had to use a pair of pliers to pull the lid tab back and it still left some scrapes (peel the lids inner edges up before pulling). Below that is a 2nd covering that’s more easily removed. At that point you can pull the top off although it still has a connecting tab to the rest of the container. DONT try and cut outside the lid with a knife or scissors. Read more

El producto es muy bueno, lo eh tomado por más de un año; pero estoy totalmente decepcionado del nuevo empaque porque considero que no es apropiado para este producto en polvo, en primer lugar el paquete me llegó todo aplastado lo cual pudo hacer provocado que el empaque se abriera por lo cual ya no hubiera considerado q el producto era apto para consumo. En segundo lugar no queda bien tapado con ese empaque lo cual queda expuesto a cualquier cosa en la encímese de mi cocina, se que puedo solucionarlo con vaciar el producto en otro empaque y eso no es problema pero esto jamás me hubiera sucedido con el empaque anterior en cual era de un plástico resistente y con tapa enroscable.. y por último y no menos importante por dios ya no sean tan tacaños y añadan una cuchara medidora.

I’ve been using Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides for my hair and nails, and I can truly see a difference. My nails grow faster and stronger, and my hair feels healthier with less breakage. I love that it’s unflavored and dissolves quickly in both hot and cold drinks — no clumps, no weird taste, no chalky texture. It’s also gluten-free, dairy-free, Whole30, Paleo, and made from grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine collagen, so it fits into pretty much any wellness routine. The best part? You can sneak it into almost anything. Here are some easy collagen recipes you can include right in your review to give shoppers extra value: ☕️ 1. Collagen Coffee (The Easiest Morning Routine Boost) • 1–2 scoops Vital Proteins • Hot coffee of your choice • Optional: splash of creamer, cinnamon, or honey Stir until dissolved. You won’t taste a thing — but your hair and nails will thank you. 🍓 2. Berry Glow Smoothie • 1 scoop Vital Proteins • 1 cup frozen berries • ½ banana • 1 cup almond milk (or any milk) • 1 tbsp chia seeds Blend until smooth.

I have only been taking the product for a short time. I was encouraged to try it by a good friend who has been taking the product for some time, and related the good results as advertised by the product information. For starters, I appreciate how easy it dissolves in my coffee cup, and leaving no taste or residue. That my finger nails are growing faster is one sign the it is working, however, as for the other results of good joint maintenance, etc. I will leave it to the reviews of those who have been using the product for an extended time.

Great product. My only complaint is the wide mouth lid. I’d tried this particular brand prior from my local Walmart. It was slightly smaller version , wanted to see first how I tolerated it, taste etc. The lid on first one was fine it was more of a taller cylinder. This one is more ounces and better price than Walmart. So I ordered it. The lid is extremely wide , I’m a small older female and it is difficult for me to spread my fingers far enough to get the lid off. I don’t want to not seal it and leave it loose. It’s too large for my rubber jar opener also. Read more

Well, I have given it 5 stars because it does make my hair and nails grow. My nails are stronger, and it is a great source of protein. It does exactly what I hoped it would do. I will say the 1st time I tried this I mixed it into cold water from the fridge and It did not mix up well at all! I have since discovered it does however mix well in room temp water. If you mix it with cold liquids it clumps. ALSO, i do have to mention if you ever wanted to know what ground up cow hoofs tasted like... I'm thinking it's this! It tastes awful - I have to chug 1 TBSP in the morning and have a chaser of something else like coffee, soda, milk ANYTHING. I don't know how in the world people are comparing this to vanilla I think those people had their taste buds ruined. It is not a good taste but I'm willing to overlook it due to the fact I will not waste it however don't know if I will buy again. I may try to find another brand with less of a idk earthy taste.

Pros: no smell Cons: don't like the taste, i guess I'm sensitive to taste and smells but i can pick up a taste and i don't know if I'll be able to finish the whole container. It has a smell-taste. Have you ever sanded or ground down bone? Like deer antler or cow hoof? That burnt smell that the keratin puts off? That's what it tastes like. Like I'm drinking powdered ground-up antlers 🫎. My husband makes knives and uses horns and antlers for the handles and when he's sanding and grinding the handle down to smooth it off, this is what I smell in his shop. Unfortunately, this is also what i taste when i drink the powder. I have tried mixing it in with my smoothies to hide the taste but the first time I did this, it turned a 32 oz smoothie into a 72 oz+ smoothie. It Made the smoothie very frothy, voluminous, and it took me a long time to drink because there was so much of it but there was no taste. The second time, i mixed it in with my smoothie I put a scoop of the powder in my smoothie after I had already mixed it. This time it coagulated the powder. It didn't have a taste because it was in the smoothie, but every so often it felt like I was eating clumps of boogers and that made it hard to suppress my gag reflex. Another time I mixed it with a soft drink. I put a scoop in a glass and then I poured the soft drink in the glass and it bubbled over, kind of like when you mix baking soda and vinegar to make a volcano. It was a frothy, bubbly, 7th grade science experiment gone wrong. I went ahead and drank it after cleaning up the counter and cabinets but that also coagulated the powder and i was back to square 1 with boogers in my drink. My only option at this point is to mix it with the least amount of water suggested (8 oz) and just shotgun the drink after I mix it so that I don't have to taste the powdered antlers. I am determined to finish it to see what results I get and because i paid for it but it definitely does have a taste. At this point, i haven't seen any noticeable improvements in my hair, skin or nails after about 3 weeks on the powder. Will update if that changes. Update: delivered Mar 20, today is May 2, I've been taking 1-2 scoops nearly every day since it was delivered give or take 1-3 days where i forgot, so far, I've only noticed stronger nails. I used to have strong nails but, of course, with age that changed. Last few years I've had gel put on my nails and my nails are always so weak and soft after just one gel manicure that I usually don't do them again for a month or so. I've noticed that this time around my nails were so strong after taking the gel off. I also do my nails at home, i know gel manis aren't the best for your nails but i don't buff my nails as hard and the products i use aren't commercial so they don't last as long. Anyway, that is one noticeable improvement, my nails actually have a lot of length to them and they are so strong. It doesn't take long for my nails to grow but i would always cut them down bc i knew that they are softer and would just bend and break and then i just cut them all the same length bc i don't like having different length nails. Another thing that i learned is that the product doesn't clump and congeal if i mix it with room temperature tap water. I was getting my water from the fridge and it is cold and that may have been causing the gross collagen boogers after mixing it. I'm fact, the directions say to mix with tap water or room temperature water or something to that effect. I don't remember reading that the first time so i tried it about 1 week ago and i haven't had to chew any collagen boogers since. So that is my review after one solid month and a half of taking this brand. I will be trying another brand with more collagen types in it (Beyond Collagen with biotin) just to expand my horizons and to see if i notice any changes in my hair or skin with a different brand. Also, i DO NOT recommend the vanilla-flavored collagen, that is such a disgusting, artificial taste that it leaves that i would rather stick with the ground antlers tastes. I threw the whole vanilla container out because it tasted so gross. Read more

This product dissolves easily and mixes well in any liquid. I mixed it with water because other reviews stated that the powder was completely tasteless, however, I find that it has a HORRIBLE taste and smell when mixed with plain water. Once mixed with another powdered water flavoring, the taste was almost completely masked and I was able to drink it. I will update my review if there are any noticeable health benefits from use.
