Despite the name, this gummy's headline skin ingredient — **Hydrolyzed Collagen** at 100mg — delivers about 2% of the 5,000mg minimum used in clinical skin studies. At that dose, you're unlikely to see any measurable benefit for skin elasticity or hydration. **Biotin** at 2,500mcg is within the supplemental range, but clinical research only supports hair and nail benefits in people with an actual biotin deficiency, which is uncommon.

**Vitamin C** at 135mg falls short of the 250mg clinical range, and **Vitamin E** at 30mg uses the synthetic DL form, which your body absorbs at roughly half the rate of natural vitamin E. Both provide basic antioxidant support but aren't dosed for targeted skin results.

The biggest gap here is the collagen. If you're taking this specifically for hair, skin, and nails, the 100mg dose is a fraction of what research suggests you'd need — you'd want a dedicated collagen product delivering at least 2,500–5,000mg per serving to match what's been studied.
