The pairing
Collagen synthesis needs vitamin C
This isn’t a marketing pairing. Vitamin C is a required cofactor in the enzymatic step that builds collagen. Taking the peptides without it is doing half the job.
Beauty & Joints
The Beauty & Joints System
10,000 mg of five collagen types a scoop, and 1,500 mg of absorbable vitamin C. Your body breaks collagen into amino acids and rebuilds its own, and vitamin C is the cofactor that rebuilding step runs on. Supports skin elasticity, hair and nails, and joint comfort.

Why it matters
Two shortfalls, not one.
Collagen falls away quietly from your twenties — skin that creases where it used to spring back, nails that split, knees that announce the stairs. And the nutrient your body needs to rebuild it is the one most adults are short of.
1% a year1
is the rate skin collagen falls from early adulthood, measured in a study that has stood for fifty years.
46%2
of US adults fall short on vitamin C — the cofactor the body can’t build collagen without.

Description
Collagen, and what builds it.
Your body doesn’t use collagen the way it arrives. It breaks it into amino acids and rebuilds its own, and that rebuilding step needs vitamin C as a cofactor. This is the peptides and the cofactor together.
Ten thousand milligrams of collagen per scoop across five types from four food sources, and 1,500 mg of vitamin C carried on sunflower phospholipids.
What’s in it
- 10,000 mg of multi collagen per scoop, types I, II, III, V and X
- Beef, chicken, wild fish and eggshell membrane — four sources, not one
- 1,500 mg of liposomal vitamin C, the cofactor collagen synthesis runs on
- Unflavoured, dissolves hot or cold, no taste to get used to
- 10% off as a one-off, 20% off on a subscription, free U.S. shipping

Results timeline
What to expect from your first 90 days
Collagen works quietly and on the body’s own schedule. Here’s the timeline most of our customers describe, and why it takes the time it does.
-
Week 1
A habit that survives travel
One scoop into coffee, two capsules with water. Nothing to prepare, no taste to get used to.
I buy it monthly now
I got these and I cannot believe the difference it has made for me. I am very satisfied so I buy it monthly. Highly recommended — the powder is not gritty and mixes well. Excellent. My skin looks hydrated and even my eyesight has improved, which was not expected.

Weeks 4–8
Skin and nails first
Types I and III are the main structural proteins in skin, and nails take roughly this long to grow out.
They all pale in comparison
I’ve tried many collagen peptides and they all pale in comparison to this one! The vitamin C works together with it really well. I see and feel the difference already after a few weeks! Wholesome has the very best quality and pricing for the value. Absolutely the best!

Month 3
Joints and hair catch up
Types II and X work on cartilage and bone, which turn over more slowly than skin. Hair grows about half an inch a month, so new growth is where it shows.
Part of my daily routine
I’ve been using this combo since June and seeing great results. Wholesome Wellness supplements are part of my daily routine. If you try it you won’t regret it!

The point of it
What people notice first, and what they notice later
Collagen is a slow argument. Nothing happens in a fortnight, and then one day the nails have grown out properly, or the stairs stop announcing themselves, and you realise it has been happening the whole time.
- Nails that grow past the fingertip without splitting
- Skin that looks rested rather than different
- Hair that holds length, which only shows in new growth
- Knees and shoulders that make less of an occasion out of ordinary movement

You have to try this combo
You have to try this combo, it really works — not kidding! My skin is healthy and smooth and I love it!
Dissolves in hot coffee, no clumps
This was my worry after the last brand turned into lumps at the bottom of the mug. Two scoops into black coffee, stir, gone. No taste either, which is the whole point for me.
Four months in and my nails tell the story
I could never grow them past the fingertip without splitting. It is not a dramatic before-and-after, just steady — which is what made me believe it.
The jar lasts longer than I expected
Sixteen ounces sounded small next to the tubs I used to buy, but the scoop is honest and I get about a month out of it. Works out cheaper than my old one per serving.
Took about five weeks to show
Nothing obvious early on and I nearly wrote it off. Around week five my skin just looked less tired — I only noticed because someone else said something. Would give it five stars if the six-pack were a little cheaper.
My hair stopped shedding
Started the collagen powder in my morning coffee because it was the only habit I knew I’d keep. Four months in, my nails are noticeably harder and my hairdresser asked what I changed.
Exactly what I was hoping for
I’ve reordered three times now. It does what the label says, which is more than I can say for the last two brands I tried.
Worth every penny
The price point made me suspicious at first, honestly. Then I looked up the third-party test results and realized they’re just not spending it on packaging.
Good, took a few weeks
Didn’t notice much in week one and nearly gave up. Glad I didn’t — by week four the difference was obvious.
Subscription is genuinely easy
I paused for six weeks while traveling and restarted in about ten seconds. No retention offers, no chat agent.
My whole family takes it now
Started with one bottle for myself, now I order the six pack. Cheaper per bottle and I stop running out.
Actually absorbs
I take vitamin C through every winter and this is the first liposomal one at a price I didn’t wince at. Haven’t been sick since October.
Capsules are a good size
I struggle swallowing large pills and these are manageable. Small thing, but it’s why I actually stay consistent.
Night and day in my complexion
This brand of vitamin C is the real thing. There are so many weak vitamin C brands out there but this actually works. The difference in my complexion is night and day. I take it with the collagen too and my hair is more shiny and healthy. This is the one you should get!
Months in and I love them
I have been taking these for months now and I love them!
No shady ingredients
Good product. The active ingredients are loaded! No shady ingredients.
