Though our roster of experts frequently weigh in on the best skin-care regimens<\/a>, they\u2019d be the first to tell you that the most carefully-curated and efficacious formulas in the world can\u2019t compete with poor lifestyle habits. Besides wearing sunscreen<\/a> daily and avoiding overconsumption of sugar and alcohol, you need to consume essential nutrients to achieve clear, radiant skin or strong, shiny hair. Sure, you can get many of these nutrients through a diet rich in whole foods like leafy greens, lean meats, legumes, and the like; but if you find that your schedule fills up faster and more easily than your Instacart, supplements can make for a helpful shortcut.<\/p>\n

That said, if you\u2019ve taken a scroll through the supplement offerings on Amazon, you know that there are a lot of options to choose from. A simple search for protein powder or probiotics is bound to yield hundreds of different products, each with their own merit and exceptional reviews. \u201cIf you are going to use supplements, it is very important to confirm that they are high-quality and clean and sourced from reputable places\u2014and I definitely wouldn\u2019t jump on every trend that you see,\u201d warns Amir Karam, MD<\/a>, board-certified facial plastic surgeon and founder of KaramMD Skin<\/a> in San Diego.<\/p>\n

To cut through all the noise, we asked some of our favorite experts\u2014including derms, plastic surgeons, a trichologist, and a nutritionist\u2014to share the supplements they take for their own skin and hair. Not only have they gone through the data of the products they\u2019ve tried, they\u2019ve seen transformative results firsthand.<\/p>\n

Just remember that no supplement routine is one size fits all and that you\u2019ll get the best results from seeking the support of a licensed provider. \u201cAs with any wellness regimen, consistency and personalization are key, and I always emphasize that supplementation should be guided by individual needs and, when appropriate, laboratory evaluation,\u201d adds Anetta Reszko, MD, PhD<\/a>, board-certified dermatologist and dermatologic surgeon in New York.

Ritual Omega-3 Fatty Acids<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve taken omega-3 fatty acids<\/a> long term for cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory support, and I notice a measurable difference in overall inflammation, particularly in skin reactivity and recovery after procedures,\u201d says Dr. Reszko. While she uses a prescription supplement known as Lovaza, we enjoy Ritual Omega-3 DHA & EPA<\/a> supplements as an over-the-counter option\u2014while many products in this category cause burping, this one doesn\u2019t (but if you do occasionally burp, it won\u2019t taste fishy, but citrusy, thanks to the vegan formulation and the inclusion of orange oil).<\/p>\n

The Hair Revitalizing Complex<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Hair Supplement by Augustinus Bader is a more recent addition\u2014I\u2019ve been taking it for several months,\u201d says Dr. Reszko. \u201cAround the three-month mark, I began noticing less shedding and improved hair density, particularly along the hairline.\u201d Three capsules a day delivers a potent dose of botanicals like ashwagandha, saw palmetto, moringa leaf, rosemary, and fenugreek, as well as plenty of vitamins and minerals.<\/p>\n

Vitamin D3 & K2<\/p>\n

This vitamin duo is a must for Dr. Reszko, especially in the winter months when many individuals experience a dramatic dip in vitamin D levels; studies show that taking the two nutrients together provide more benefit to bone density and cardiovascular health than if taken alone. \u201cThis essential combination has been a long-standing part of my regimen, to support bone health and proper calcium metabolism,\u201d she says. \u201cMaintaining optimal vitamin D levels has supported overall energy and bone health, which I monitor with lab work.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been using this collagen supplementation<\/a> consistently for over a year,\u201d says Dr. Reszko. \u201cAfter about 8 to 12 weeks, I noticed improved skin elasticity and a subtle but meaningful improvement in overall skin quality and hydration, which aligns with what we understand about collagen turnover timelines.\u201d In addition to containing marine collagen sourced from fish, this powder features vitamin C from acerola cherry and silicon from bamboo, the latter of which helps provide strength and structure to hair, skin, and nails.<\/p>\n

Perfect Amino Creatine<\/p>\n

Creatine has been a part of Dr. Reszko\u2019s regimen for several years to help support her strength and energy; Perfect Amino further helps these goals by providing essential amino acids for protein synthesis and tissue repair. This combination of the two provides comprehensive improvement to endurance and recovery. \u201cAfter about six weeks of taking Perfect Aminos, I noticed improved recovery after workouts and procedures requiring prolonged standing,\u201d explains Dr. Reszko.<\/p>\n

Elm Biosciences Inner Dose<\/p>\n

Elm Biosciences<\/p>\n

Inner Dose Daily Skin Supplement<\/p>\n

\u201cTraditionally, I had used vitamin D and a multivitamin, along with polypodium leukotomes. Polypodium Leukotomes is an oral antioxidant that most dermatologists love. We recommend it regularly for our melasma and hyperpigmentation patients, as well as those for high risk for skin cancer. More recently, it\u2019s become popular as a tool to protect from UV damage leading to wrinkle formation,\u201d explains Dr. Bhanusali. However, with the help of over 350 dermatologists in their network, he and the Elm Biosciences team created the all-in-one oral supplement of his dreams. \u201cWe got a consensus of all the ingredients that our network dermatologists traditionally recommend to patients or family members,\u201d he says, and the Inner Dose supplement was born. In addition to vitamin D and polypodium leukotomes, it contains potent antioxidants like astaxanthin, turmeric, and holy basil. He\u2019s been taking it for nearly two years at this point, and thinks of it as more of a preventative rather than a curative supplement. \u201dWhen I am at my Miami home, I love to go running every morning,\u201d Dr. Bhanusali adds. \u201cI apply sunscreen, but even with sunscreen, I am still not always optimally protected. It helps having a secondary defense while UV is strongest. While I never will say supplements will replace sunscreen, it\u2019s great to use in conjunction with the overall sun protection standards, like SPF, hats, and other methods.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cymbiotika Liposomal Advanced Creatine<\/p>\n

Dr. Bhanusali has been using creatine for about four years, but only recently switched to this formula from Six Star Creatine<\/a>. The Cymbiotika product is a long-lasting, easy-to-digest form of creatine that can be easily consumed straight from the packet.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor protein, I use many different brands, including Dymatize and also Muscle Milk<\/a> from time to time\u2014when on the run or between patients. I have been having shakes for over 10 years,\u201d says Dr. Bhanusali. \u201cCreatine and protein have helped me stay in shape and maintain lean muscle mass as a vegetarian. I had lost 50 pounds, and it was only I learned about nutrition, macros, etc. that it all clicked for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

DeeplyRooted Hair Supplements<\/p>\n

While Caspara uses a plethora of supplements to help support thicker, healthier hair growth<\/a>\u2014both personally and with her clients\u2014this one from Hush & Hush is the backbone of her regimen. \u201cI\u2019ve been taking DeeplyRooted daily for several years to help reverse thinning, dryness, and shedding. I\u2019ve personally seen thicker density, improved shine, and more consistent growth since using it,\u201d she says. Caspara notes it contains a blend of science-backed nutrients to support follicle health and scalp function, like vitamins (including a variety of B vitamins like niacin, cyclobalamin, and biotin), minerals such as zinc and selenium, botanicals like saw palmetto and ashwagandha, amino acids, and fish-derived collagen.<\/p>\n

OmniBiotics Balance Probiotic<\/p>\n

\u201cI take OmniBiotics daily to support gut health<\/a> and digestive function\u2014a healthy gut microbiome is essential for proper nutrient absorption, which directly impacts scalp health and hair quality,\u201d Caspara explains. \u201cI\u2019ve been using this consistently for several years, and I\u2019ve noticed improved digestion, better nutrient utilization, and more resilient hair growth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tru Niagen NAD+ Support<\/p>\n

NAD+<\/a> is one of the buzziest ingredients on the block these days due to its ability to support cellular energy, repair, and regeneration; this supplement is a daily must for Caspara. \u201cFrom a hair-health perspective, NAD+ supports healthier follicles, improved scalp function, and better resilience against stress-related shedding,\u201d she explains. \u201cI\u2019ve noticed improved overall vitality and stronger, more robust hair.\u201d<\/p>\n

Several Times a Week<\/p>\n

Mt. Capra Mineral Whey<\/p>\n

Caspara uses this whey formula<\/a> regularly for its rich profile of essential minerals, inclusive of magnesium, potassium, chloride, and zinc. \u201cThese minerals support the foundation of hormonal health and hormone production, which are critical for maintaining a regulated hair growth cycle and long-term hair longevity,\u201d she says. In addition to seeing stronger hair over time, she\u2019s noticed that adding this formula to her regimen has helped improve her energy levels and balance her hormone levels. \u201cIt\u2019s a must for my clients dealing with hormonal imbalances or thyroid issues,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n

Ancient + Brave True Collagen<\/p>\n

Ancient + Brave<\/p>\n

True Collagen<\/p>\n

\u201cCollagen provides key amino acids that contribute to keratin production and scalp integrity,\u201d explains. She adds this collagen into her routine to keep her hair strong and elastic, and recommends it to her clients who struggle with brittle hair prone to breakage and poor scalp health. Fortuantely, it\u2019s completely tasteless and dissolves easily into coffee or smoothies without clumping or chalkiness.<\/p>\n

Lemon water<\/p>\n

Like many in the wellness space, Fox starts every day by drinking a glass of lemon water<\/a> as soon as she wakes up\u2014the simple ritual consists of adding half a small lemon to about 24 ounces of water, then waiting half an hour before consuming anything else. \u201cThis helps keep my liver functioning well and supports a fast metabolism,\u201d Fox explains. \u201cLemons have a gentle way to open detox pathways. It\u2019s such an easy way to get my water first thing in the morning; hydration is essential for clear, glowing skin. The major bonus is it\u2019s packed with vitamin C<\/a> that helps support collagen production, giving skin brightness and helping hair stay strong and resilient.\u201d<\/p>\n
