1. Skin Hydration and Health
Our Premium Collagen Peptides made in New Zealand are formulated to enhance skin elasticity, hydration and reduce redness. Deeper support than a standard collagen brand, The addition of NR supports cellular repair and rejuvenation, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This powerful combination helps you achieve a radiant, youthful complexion that glows from within, and did we mention our drinks taste delicious?!
2. Strengthen Hair and Add Shine
Our Premium Collagen Peptides help rejuvenate your hair by providing the essential amino acids needed for hair growth and strength. Collagen is a critical component of hair structure, making up approximately 30% of the body’s protein content. When collagen levels are low, hair can become dull, brittle, limp and break easily. Regular intake of our high-quality hydrolysed collagen helps fortify hair follicles, reduce breakage, and promote thicker, shinier hair. This ensures your hair remains resilient, vibrant, and full of life, enhancing your overall beauty and health.
3. Joint and Bone Strength
Collagen is essential for maintaining the health of your joints and bones. Our hydrolysed collagen peptides provide the necessary building blocks to support joint flexibility and bone strength, helping you stay active, creek-free and pain-free. Increasing collagen production can also help with inflammation, providing pain relief and enhancing your mobility. The inclusion of other synergistic ingredients enhances collagen's benefits, making it a comprehensive solution for joint health.
4. Enhanced Absorption and Effectiveness
Our formula includes pure hydrolysed collagen from grass-fed cattle that improve the bioavailability, absorption and effectiveness of collagen in the body. We’ve also included 9 other synergistic ingredients to supercharge the benefits to you, making Vital Beauty the best collagen supplement on the market. The scientifically-backed blend, made in NZ and packaged in fully recyclable metal tins with biodegradable cornstarch spoons, we’re committed to keeping Aotearoa clean and green while delivering results you can feel and see.
Hydrolysed collagen, also known as collagen peptides, is collagen that has been broken down into smaller, more easily absorbed molecules through a process called hydrolysis. This process enhances its bioavailability, meaning your body can absorb and utilise it more effectively.
The Role of Molecular Weight in Collagen Absorption
The molecular weight of collagen peptides is a critical factor in determining how effectively your body can absorb and use collagen. Research indicates that collagen peptides with a molecular weight under 5000 Da (Daltons) are generally preferred for better bioavailability. Smaller peptides are absorbed more efficiently through the intestinal wall, leading to quicker and more pronounced benefits. As a result, you may experience faster and more noticeable improvements in skin hydration, hair strength, and joint flexibility compared to standard collagen supplements.
Why Our Collagen Stands Out
While many collagen supplements on the market have peptides with molecular weights between 2,000 Da and 5,000 Da, our hydrolysed collagen is formulated with an even lower molecular weight of around 1,000 Da. This ultra-low molecular weight allows for maximum absorption and efficacy, ensuring that the collagen reaches the areas of your body where it’s needed most. We use only the finest ingredients, blending them locally to support our community and ensure that every batch meets the highest standards of purity and effectiveness.

Collagen is a protein that makes up about one-third of the protein in our body. It keeps our skin supple, hair shiny, nails strong, and joints moving freely. Collagen is also found in bones, teeth, tendons, blood vessels, cartilage, and even our digestive tract. It is essential for maintaining the strength and health of various tissues in the body.
Collagen peptides are small, easily digestible pieces of collagen protein derived from hydrolysed collagen. They support skin health, joint function, and overall vitality by providing essential amino acids necessary for collagen production in the body.
Hydrolysed collagen, also known as collagen peptides, is collagen that has been broken down into smaller, more easily absorbed molecules through a process called hydrolysis. This makes it more bioavailable, meaning your body can absorb and utilise it more effectively. The molecular weight of collagen peptides affects their absorption. Peptides with a molecular weight under 5000 Da are generally preferred for better bioavailability. When looking at a collagen supplement, less than 3,000 Da is optimal, and most brands sit between 2,000 Da and 5000 Da on the markets. Ours is around 1,000Da for maximum absorption and efficacy.
Hydrolysed collagen is processed through hydrolysis, which breaks down the larger collagen molecules into smaller peptides. This process enhances its effectiveness by making it easier for the body to absorb and utilise. The degree of hydrolysis and the quality of the source material are crucial factors in determining the collagen's effectiveness.
Type I collagen is crucial for skin, tendon, and bone health. Type II collagen supports cartilage and joint health, while Type III collagen helps maintain the structure of muscles, organs, and arteries. This blend ensures comprehensive support for various aspects of your health. Shop our range of collagen powder in New Zealand now.
