Collagen capsules | Bovine collagen with Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin C | Pure Vitamins UK

Our Formula

Most collagen supplements in the UK give you one thing: collagen. That's it. Standard high-street collagen capsules are single-ingredient formulas no co-factors, no synergy, no thought given to what your body actually needs alongside collagen to use it properly. We built Collagen Complex Plus differently. Three ingredients. One system. Every inclusion earned.

✔ Hydrolysed Bovine Collagen (Types I & III) — Bioavailable Skin & Joint Support

Not all collagen is equal. Hydrolysed means the collagen has been broken down into small peptides making it far easier for your body to absorb than non-hydrolysed collagen powders still found in many budget UK products. We use Types I & III specifically: the forms most abundant in skin, tendons, and connective tissue. Sourced from grass-fed cattle. 1,000 mg per daily serving. No padding.

✔ Hyaluronic Acid — Moisture & Joint Lubrication

Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in your skin and joints, and it works as a hydration anchor holding water where your body needs it most. At 100 mg per serving, it's here to complement the collagen rather than sit as a token trace amount (a trick cheaper formulas pull). Together, collagen and HA support the kind of skin suppleness and joint comfort that a single-ingredient capsule simply cannot.

✔ Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid) — The Collagen Activator

Here's something your body can't negotiate around: without Vitamin C, normal collagen formation doesn't happen. It's a biological requirement. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, cartilage, and bones yet most collagen supplements on the UK market leave it out entirely. We include 60 mg per serving because a formula without it is an incomplete one.

✔ 3-Action Synergy — Not Found in Standard UK Collagen Supplements

Together, these three ingredients support:

• Contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin
• Contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and bones
• Contributes to normal protein synthesis
• Contributes to normal psychological function
• Contributes to the normal function of the immune system
• Contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
• Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism

Most UK collagen brands stop at the collagen itself. Hitting this range of approved health claims in a single, clean formula takes cost, formulation effort, and the willingness to not cut corners. It's easier and cheaper to put one ingredient in a capsule and call it done.

✔ No Gelatine. No Cheap Filler Blends. No Shortcuts.

Our capsule shell is 100% vegetarian HPMC — not gelatine, which is the low-cost default across most UK collagen capsules. There are no magnesium stearate bulking agents, no artificial binders, no silicon dioxide flowing agents to help a factory run faster. What you see on the label is what's in the capsule. Nothing else.

✔ Clean, Transparent, Premium-Crafted Supplement

• Manufactured in GMP-certified facilities and tested for purity and heavy metals
• 100% vegetarian HPMC capsules no gelatine
• Bovine collagen sourced from grass-fed cattle

You didn't pick the cheapest option on the shelf and your skin, joints, and nails will know the difference.

Collagen Complex Plus (Bovine Collagen + HA + Vitamin C)

This hydrolysed bovine collagen complex is formulated for adults who want to support skin elasticity, joint comfort, hair growth and overall connective tissue health. It is particularly suitable for:

1. Individuals experiencing reduced skin hydration or loss of elasticity

Collagen levels naturally decline with age, reducing skin firmness and moisture retention.

Clinical findings show that oral collagen supplements improve skin hydration and elasticity, while also reducing wrinkle depth in adults (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).

The addition of hyaluronic acid increases dermal moisture, enhancing smoothness and glow (mdpi.com).

2. Those looking to maintain healthy joints and mobility

Collagen is a primary structural protein in cartilage and tendons.

Research indicates that hydrolysed bovine collagen can reduce joint discomfort and improve physical function, particularly in active individuals (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).

Paired with Vitamin C, this formula supports collagen synthesis for flexible, well-lubricated joints.

3. Adults aiming to strengthen hair, nails & connective tissue

Collagen peptides support keratin structure — the foundation of hair and nail strength.

Supplementation has been shown to increase nail growth rate and reduce brittleness, improving overall appearance (mdpi.com).

Ideal for those with weak nails, thinning hair or beauty-focused goals.

4. Active individuals and gym users supporting recovery

Exercise-induced wear on joints and tendons increases collagen demand.

Studies show collagen supplementation can improve movement efficiency and reduce post-exercise soreness, aiding faster recovery (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
