As we grow older, our body’s collagen production declines, meaning that with each passing year, the elasticity in our skin and hair becomes weaker and more fragile. However, supplements designed to boost this vital protein offer an effective way to maintain levels, resulting in fewer wrinkles, less sagging and other benefits as we age gracefully.
One particular brand is receiving widespread acclaim from customers for its collagen supplement, which has not only addressed visible signs of ageing but has also strengthened thinning hair following menopause. In addition to this, users have reported improvements in their joints and aches – which is always a welcome bonus.
The Pro Marine Collagen Peptides supplement from Swallow, which contains 1000 mg of Hydrolysed Marine Collagen Peptides (Type I collagen), is a capsule featuring 13 beauty nutrients, including CoQ10, Hyaluronic Acid to maintain skin hydration and Sea Kelp Extract for that radiant glow. Furthermore, it also includes vitamins such as Pureway® Vitamin C, Biotin (vitamin B7), Natural Vitamin E, Zinc, Riboflavin (vitamin B2), Nicotinamide (vitamin B3) and selenium.

The brand states that the vitamins in this formula are ‘activated’, meaning they’ll be absorbed more rapidly into the body, allowing users to feel the benefits sooner. Whilst the brand provides a one-time purchase option at £35 for one bottle, ranging up to six bottles (working out at £25 each), its subscription model appears to be more economical.
The Swallow capsules are available as single, double or triple bottle purchases, with each bottle holding 60 capsules – a month’s supply as the recommended dosage is two daily. Prices begin at £30, reduced from £35, for one bottle, whilst two bottles cost £27.50, and three cost £24.66 – working out at 41p per capsule, or 82p per day, reports Yorkshire Live.

The Pro Marine Collagen Peptides supplement from Swallow contains 13 different beauty ingredients to reduce the signs of aging as well as aiding joint pain and more.
What’s more, our readers can secure 15% off their order by entering the discount code REACH15 at checkout. This reduces the one-off purchase price from £35 to £29.75, whilst a subscription for three bottles drops from £74 to £62.90.
Guaranteeing results within 90 days, one added advantage of this supplement is the inclusion of Probiotic Lactobacillus, which is a high-dose probiotic to support gut health. Nutritionist Shona Wilkinson stated: “One of the key standouts for this beauty supplement is the high-dose probiotic, which supports the gut-skin axis. We know gut health affects the skin.”
Whilst taking a capsule suits some people, others find swallowing this format difficult, which is where powdered and liquid alternatives prove useful. One option is Free Soul’s CreaGlow: Creatine + Collagen Powder, £27.99 with a subscription.

Alternatively, shoppers can sample these Marine Collagen Gummies from MyVitamins, £11.99, which contain 500mg of marine collagen and 1200ug of retinol per serving. They also include vitamin C, which is an ‘essential vitamin for collagen formation, immune function and cognitive health’.
However, the Swallow Pro Marine Collagen Peptides capsules have received glowing reviews from customers who have witnessed impressive results, boasting an overall 4.7 star rating. One satisfied customer enthused: “This product seems to be doing the trick. My skin looks better, hair shinier and nails stronger! Will order more!”
Another stated: “Been taking these for a little whilst now and can definitely see a difference in my hair and skin! My knees don’t hurt as much either. Would definitely recommend it.”
A third person observed: “I look less tired, feel so much better in the mornings, have more energy, and skin looks younger. I will continue to use this supplement.”
Meanwhile another echoed: “After trying so many of these collagen products, this complex has so many great ingredients I really LOVE the Co. Q10 as it really helps with my crow’s feet and the sea kelp is just brilliant.”
Despite its 4.7 star rating, it appears the only negative points raised in lower reviews were that it hadn’t been long enough for them to notice much of a change – the brand reportedly states results should be noticeable within ‘eight weeks’. One individual also recommended against dissolving it into a drink and advised swallowing it whole.
For most, however, the capsules have been a positive inclusion in their regimen, with one individual remarking: “I started taking collagen supplements approx eight months ago as I had noticed that my hair was thinning, especially towards the front, I put this down to menopause… I have noticed that my hair is thicker and growing. I also feel It has helped with some digestive issues and I’m not as bloated, I have been really pleased with the results.”
