Melatonin and L-theanine is an irresistible bedtime combination, but this one takes it up a notch by including Ceramides, little miracle lipids that help protect the skin and retain moisture. Put that gummy to work while you get your well-deserved beauty sleep.

Olly packs a ton of crowd-pleasing wonders in this gummy, but winds up being a jack-of-all-trades, master of none.
Overall
There's nothing in here we don't love: melatonin, ceramides, l-theanine and lemon balm! But somehow it doesn't add up to the powerhouse sum of its parts we'd expect.
Effectiveness
It sounds so perfect, but ultimately these don't quite deliver as a sleep gummy or as a beauty gummy. These have a small effect, but if you want something more noticeable, we'd spring for a few specific gummies instead of trying to pack it all in one.
Tastiness
Olly, as always, kills it in the flavor department, and these are all plush Plum Berry Blossom goodness.
Bang For Buck
These are definitely an affordable sleep + beauty option, especially if you're just looking for a little beauty routine nightcap.

We’ve had a relationship with collagen for over a decade, so we know our way around a collagen supplement by now. Although it all started with lackluster-tasting powders and drops, the collagen gummy revolution has been a game changer. Getting extra collagen has never been so effortless! It feels like the collagen gummy cosmos has […]

Solid collagen gummy rounded out by a few other skin essentials.
Overall
While we think these are a good gummy, we need to note that these are mislabeled both on the packaging and on VitaFive's website: collagen is not vegetarian!
Effectiveness
There are other gummies out there with much more collagen per serving, but the addition of vitamins C, E, and biotin help make these worthwhile.
Tastiness
Delightful pink lemonade flavor, with none of the weird chewiness of some other gummies that have more collagen.
Bang For Buck
At about $13 for a month's supply, these are super affordable, but there are gummies out there that give you a better collagen/dollar ratio, even if they're more expensive.

We’ve been eyeing the Vital Proteins section at our local markets for what feels like forever: we’ve been on the lookout for a collagen gummy from the biggest collagen name in town. This lowkey juggernaut of collagen supplements crowds the shelves with endless variations of flavored powders, creamers and even waters…but no gummies. We know […]

The leading collagen brand joins the gummy fray
Overall
A high dose of high-quality collagen, in a comically fluffy grape-flavored gummy.
Effectiveness
Our go-to test for judging collagen gummies is: do our nails break? Ours did while we first started taking these, but after a while our nails were firm and our skin was getting compliments.
Tastiness
A strong cartoon grape flavor; not the most sophisticated gummy out there by a long shot, but edible for sure. Maybe grape candy is your thing, in which case you'll probably love these.
Bang For Buck
As much collagen as Olly's gummy rings, but for about half the cost. Add in that Vital Proteins' collagen is grass-fed, and we'd say this the best deal out there for collagen gummies.

These gummy rings are about as close to candy as you can get. Plus they make your nails strong and skin enviable? Yes, please. 🙋‍♀️ We are total stans of these delectable gums out here in the Galaxy.

Olly's candy-like peach rings bring the fun to beauty supplements, and they deliver like nobody's business
Overall
A delicious peach ring that looks and tastes like candy, but contains 2500 mg of bovine collagen for vibrant skin, strong nails and resilient hair. We're collagen junkies, and these are some of the best collagen gummies out there.
Effectiveness
Don't let the whimsical peach ring full you: these deliver all the nail strength and skin elasticity you would get from less delightful collagen products and it works. Noticable results within weeks.
Tastiness
These taste like the classic peach candy rings themselves. We took a point off for the weird chewiness that make these a little less pleasant to eat than other, smaller collagen gummies.
Bang For Buck
Olly is a wallet-friendly brand, so you can get the same effect as some of the fancier collagen supplements without the expense & with more fun.

It’s no secret we are devoted Neocell Collagen-nauts out here in the beauty cosmos, and have been for many years. 👩🏻‍🚀👋🏻 For years, we have religiously taken their collagen products.

Collagen Heavyhitter Neocell gives us... a strange tasting gummy that lacks the effectiveness that their other collagen products deliver
Overall
Despite the Neocell provenance, these aren't one of Neocell's standout creations. We'll stick to their Beauty Bursts, which contain 2g of Collagen, versus the 100mg found here.
Effectiveness
We're not going to mince words: This Neocell product did not deliver compared to their other more collagen-loaded products. But these gummies contain Keratin, Bilberry and Vitamin C, which are great beauty boosting ingredients and we were excited to see them.
Tastiness
These are a no. The flavor is generically sweet, conjuring neither mango nor dragonfruit. Plus that weird chewiness. 😖
Bang For Buck
These are definitely an affordable option, but they also have a tiny amount of collagen. If you spend a few more bucks, you can get more collagen, and therefore, more results!

It’s no secret we’re fans of Hum products. And these are even more delicious than the other Hum gummy offering, Hair Sweet Hair. We could eat this tangy tangerine all day like it’s candy.

HUM packs three of your skin's favorite ingredients into one delicious vegan citrus gummy
Overall
Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins C & E are beauty power players. Plus HUM added Amla Fruit, a lesser-known antioxidant that's a cornerstone of traditional Ayurvedic medicine.
Effectiveness
Beauty comes from the inside out, and we love to know our skin is getting all the nutrients it needs. But are these more effective than topical products with the same ingredients? Hard to say. Depends on where you want your Hyaluronic Acid budget to go!
Tastiness
These are the most delicious of the HUM gummies. A bright and tangy tangerine that tastes like candy.
Bang For Buck
Considering there's no biotin, collagen or keratin, these are a little pricey for ingredients found in many supplements and skin care products.

Hyaluronic Acid and Collagen are a beauty gummy power couple, so don’t sleep on this one. Superfood Sea Buckthorn also makes an appearance, and who can ever get enough superfoods in their diet?

A beauty gummy with all the buzzwords: collagen, hyaluronic acid and trendy sea buckthorn
Overall
We love the inventive and ambitious ingredient cocktail here, especially Sea Buckthorn: a superfood getting a lot of love these days as an anti-aging wonder berry.
Effectiveness
These are great as a beauty regimen addition (Hyaluronic Acid and Sea Buckthorn are worth beauty aids), but there's not much collagen, so don't expect va-va-voom results.
Tastiness
Olly always sticks the flavor landing. These are "Plump Berry" and plump indeed. Lush, rich, ripe. You can practically feel the juice dripping down your chin.
Bang For Buck
Olly always delivers affordable gummies with interesting ingredients and unique flavor combos. We just wish there was more collagen these!

I just want to say that I really love the idea of Pacifica. I like their body and skin care. Vegan, cruelty-free, gorgeous branding and great scents. And I like their supplement gummies. I just don’t love their supplement gummies.

A biotin-fueled gummy that feels like an also-ran compared to some other vegan beauty gummies out there
Overall
We love Pacifica's bath and skincare lines, but these gummies leave something to be desired.
Effectiveness
These didn't do much for us. Compared to the glory that is Hum's Hair Sweet Hair, or even collagen gummies, we didn't notice anything dramatic, despite the fact that they have 5,000 mg of biotin and a healthy dose of vitamins C & E.
Tastiness
The taste is fine, but these gummies have a weird white dust that gives them a chalky flavor, which makes them a little unappealing.
Bang For Buck
There's no bang, really, but these are an affordable, vegan, and accessible way to add some biotin in your diet.

The gummies that inspired this entire website. And they're still the only effective hair gummies we've ever found
Overall
Stopped our hair loss in its tracks. Only downside: If you color your hair, expect those roots to be coming in a little quicker than you’d like.
Effectiveness
Miracle workers, at least for us. These work better than other biotin gummies for hair growth: we suspect it has something to do with the addition of Fo-Ti and PABA.
Tastiness
Not the most original or interesting flavor, kind of an inoffensive, generic fruity candy.
Bang For Buck
A reasonable $26 for a month's supply, we consider these worth every penny.

Today we return to discuss grocery store staple brand Nature’s Bounty, and their foray into the beautysphere: Nature’s Bounty Hair, Skin & Nails gummies. Nature’s Bounty has been around since 1971, so they’re pretty ubiquitous, although they didn’t really get on our gummy radar until fairly recently. But their Hair, Skin & Nails gummies are […]

One of the rare non-vegan Biotin gummies, these underwhelm, underperform, and taste weirdly gritty. Just no.
Overall
We love a beauty gummy, but this is not the one. Biotin gets a gelatin send-up rendering it non-vegan, these contain environmentally destructive palm oil for some reason, and we saw no noticeable effects.
Effectiveness
We had no results here with nail firmness, hair improvements, or skin elasticity. Vitamins E & C are nice to have, but overall we can't say these did much of anything.
Tastiness
Generic strawberry flavor and the texture is strangely gritty for a gelatin gummy. Like chewing a mystery blob.
Bang For Buck
These are not expensive, but considering how ineffective they are and the low quality of ingredients, they're still not worth the price.

Embody blew up the beauty scene with this strawberry gummy, bringing retinol to the masses in an accessible and ingestible form
Overall
We love the innovation behind this groundbreaking gummy. We have some qualms about whether or not this qualifies as vegetarian, but we are so excited a retinol gummy has entered the chat.
Effectiveness
Expect to get some smooth and dewy skin. This beauty gummy doesn't pack the same wallop that a collagen gummy does, but delivers the effectiveness of topical retinol without the pesky side effects.
Tastiness
Light, bright and fruity. This fresh berry flavor tastes as supple as your skin is gonna feel.
Bang For Buck
Retin-A and its topical brethren are pricey and often need a prescription. This gets you a dose affordably and deliciously. Maximum bang to buck ratio here, when compared to the alternatives.
