Absolute Collagen Marine Liquid Collagen Supplement for Women, 8000mg High-Strength Collagen with Vitamin C, Sugar-Free, for Skin, Hair & Nails, Mango & Mandarin Flavour, 14 Sachets per Box

Did not like the taste, I have tasted nicer and found results quicker than this one

Absolute collagen has been great for me .. my skin feels and looks more radiant .. I noticed this when I first started to use this product.. I work nightshifts but noticed i didnt look so tired .. my skin didnt have the grey tinge .. this is my second order and would definitely buy this again.. would recommend for joint pain to.. as I have arthritis in my knee and have felt approx 65% of stiffness and pain is so much better.. I dont think it taste to bad and i have weak tolerance to texture and taste of some things... but i do put in my coffee in morning easier to drink for me.. but taste is hint of lemon. Sachets come in sealed pkts . Will definitely use repeatedly as it really does help with joint pain and evens out my skin tone. Wrinkles are definitely reduced .. and it does plump up skin on my face. I dont write much reveiws until I have used a few times but would recommend this to anyone that has joint pain or looking to smooth out skin.

Horrid fishy taste.

First of all, this is not a liquid, it is a very viscous and thick type of liquid. The taste is bad but for me the issue is the texture. So I decided to mix it with a probiotic drink this morning, it takes a lot of stirring but it does eventually mix. Once mixed with the probiotic drink, I found I could not feel the texture nor the flavour, very pleased. I have bought 2 boxes as I have a fresh wound on my face so I am trying to boost collagen for quicker healing. I have only taken it for 2 days so I don't know about results yet but I wanted to post this because I thought I had to throw it away but found a way to make it way more palatable.Review updated on February 10th 2024The wound on my face has healed very quickly, the scar is actually very thin, it is just a bit bumpy as basically a flap of skin was lifted and the doctor glued it back. The collagen seemed to have helped with quick healing, but maybe it is just my amazing body doing its thing! Who knows...Besides the wound (which was th reason why I started taking this), I think I can say my face, my skin on my face looks fresher, plumpier, smoother, younger? Maybe again just me, but I am 47...just shame it is so expensive! I have been taking 3 boxes so far.

I've only just started using this product so can't say fairly whether benefits have started to appear yet (hence 3/4 rating). A lot of people have mentioned the flavor reminding them of cod-liver oil, and I understand where that comes from, especially with the viscosity of the gel, but to me it honestly wasn't so bad as I had been lead to expect. It has citrus flavoring added so the gel has a taste reminiscent of lemon-curd but obviously not sweet. The fish taste IS there but far from overpowering and although it isn't delicious by any means, it's at least palatable. The gel is easy to extrude from the sachets, and the sachets come in a cardboard (recyclable) flat box that can fit through your letterbox (Amazon however, decided to package the already packaged box inside a large flat card envelope that had to be hand-delivered which defeats the purpose somewhat). My biggest criticism so far is that the individual sachets are non-recyclable (due to the gel contents), and there are A LOT OF THEM which will now end up in landfill unfortunately. The scent is pleasant, the gel has an amber color to it, and can be mixed into a drink if you don't want to squeeze the gel straight into your mouth. I haven't had any negative reactions to the shellfish compounds used, but if you have any shellfish allergies please be aware that this is marine based collagen. I'm usually quite skeptical of products that promise awe-inspiring physical changes based off their use, but a lot of the research I did online seemed to come from legitimate reviews so I've decided to give it a try. I'm hoping to update whether or not this is worth carrying on with since it is so expensive for only a two week supply, and also whether any results I achieve will diminish if I decide to take a few days/weeks off.

Excellent product

The product itself is really unappealing. It's a kind of thick yellow gunge that smells like something rotting and tastes similarly disgusting. It made me gag the first few days, but then I found it was better to squeeze it all into my mouth and immediately wash it down with a glass of juice or squash.Having said that, I guess I have a kind of no pain no gain type mentality and, if it actually worked, as unpleasant as it is, I would carry on taking it. However, this is where the problem lies - it doesn't work. I've finished the box (14 days) and really can't detect any change or improvement in anything at all.A little card in the box says users TEND TO see improvements after 6 WEEKS. That would mean another 2 boxes and another £68 (£102 in total) just to see if it had any effect. Even if you break it down into X amount per day, like they do, it doesn't change the fact it's expensive. If I had money to throw away, maybe I would carry on. Since I don't though, my thinking is this: you try something and, if it doesn't work, you don't buy it again.Basically, I need some sign, however small, that something is working to make me carry on spending because to do anything else seems kind of illogical to me.On the plus side and the only reason I gave it 2 stars rather than 1 is that the presentation is good.

Amazing
