Bioskin Hair, Skin and Nails Gummies

Bioskin is Wellgard's vegan hair, skin and nails gummy: nine nutrients in two strawberry and blueberry gummies a day, each at 100% of the reference intake and biotin at 300%. Vitamins A, D3, E, C, B6 and B12, biotin, zinc and selenium. Sixty gummies, one month. Vitamin A, biotin and zinc contribute to the maintenance of normal skin. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin. Vitamins C and E, zinc and selenium contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.

Per two gummies: vitamin A 800µg (100% NRV), vitamin D3 5µg (100%), vitamin E 12mg (100%), vitamin C 80mg (100%), vitamin B6 1.4mg (100%), vitamin B12 2.5µg (100%), biotin 150µg (300%), zinc 10mg (100%) and selenium 55µg (100%), in a pectin gummy with apple and blueberry juice concentrates and anthocyanin colour.

The ones with an authorised wording for skin: vitamin A, biotin and zinc contribute to the maintenance of normal skin; vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin; and vitamins C and E, zinc and selenium contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Bioskin carries all of them at a full day's worth.

Biotin, zinc and selenium contribute to the maintenance of normal hair; vitamin A, biotin and zinc to the maintenance of normal skin; zinc and selenium to the maintenance of normal nails; vitamin C to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin. Bioskin has all of them in two gummies a day.

Each nutrient in Bioskin has an authorised wording for what it contributes to, and Bioskin gives you a full day's worth of nine of them. Skin, hair and nails keep their own time, so the fair test is the routine: two gummies a day for the bottle, a month, then form your view. Wellgard refunds the first bottle within 30 days, opened or not.

Give it the bottle: a month of two gummies a day. Nobody feels a vitamin, and hair and skin keep their own time, so judge whether the habit has stuck at the end of the first bottle rather than the mirror at the end of the first week.

They do different jobs. Biohair is one nutrient in strength: 5,000µg of biotin, one watermelon gummy a day, for hair. Bioskin is nine nutrients at a full day's worth each, two berry gummies a day, for the three jobs skin does, with hair and nails covered on the way. Plenty of people take both; the only nutrient they share is biotin.

If hair is the thing, Biohair. If skin is the thing, or you want skin, hair and nails covered in one bottle, Bioskin. If you want both jobs done, take both; they're built to sit together and overlap on biotin alone.

Because a day's worth is what each nutrient's reference intake is for, and skin's three jobs need nine of them, not one. Bioskin gives nine at 100% and biotin at 300%. Where a single nutrient in strength is the point, that's Biohair.

For Bioskin's job, yes: 150µg is three times the reference intake of 50µg, and Biotin, zinc and selenium contribute to the maintenance of normal hair. Bioskin isn't the high-strength biotin gummy; Wellgard Biohair is, at 5,000µg, and the two are made to be taken together if you want both.

At 150µg of biotin, no. The blood-test interference reported for biotin is with very high doses, typically 5,000µg and above. If you take a high-strength biotin product alongside Bioskin, tell whoever arranges a blood test.

Vitamin A contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, the maintenance of normal vision, the normal function of the immune system, normal iron metabolism, the maintenance of normal mucous membranes and has a role in the process of cell specialisation. Bioskin gives 800µg RE, 100% of the reference intake, as retinol palmitate.

Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums and teeth; to the protection of cells from oxidative stress; to the normal function of the immune system; to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue; to normal energy-yielding metabolism; to normal functioning of the nervous system; to normal psychological function; and it increases iron absorption. Bioskin gives 80mg, 100% of the reference intake.

Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Bioskin gives 12mg, 100% of the reference intake.

Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones, teeth and muscle function, to the normal function of the immune system, to normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus, to normal blood calcium levels, and has a role in the process of cell division. Bioskin gives 5µg of D3, 100% of the reference intake.

Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, hair and nails, to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, to normal cognitive function, to the maintenance of normal vision, to the normal function of the immune system and to normal DNA synthesis, among its authorised wordings. Selenium contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and nails, to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, to normal thyroid function and to the normal function of the immune system. Bioskin gives 10mg of zinc and 55µg of selenium, 100% of each reference intake.

Both contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal functioning of the nervous system, to normal psychological function, to normal red blood cell formation and to the normal function of the immune system. Vitamin B6 also contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity. Bioskin gives 1.4mg of B6 and 2.5µg of B12, 100% of each.

Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and normal skin, to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to normal macronutrient metabolism, to normal functioning of the nervous system, to normal psychological function and to the maintenance of normal mucous membranes. Bioskin gives 150µg, 300% of the reference intake.

Yes, with one check: add up the vitamin A, vitamin E, zinc and selenium across both, because Bioskin already gives a full day's worth of each. If you take medication or are under medical supervision, ask your GP first.

Yes to both, and plenty of people do. Biohair and Bioskin overlap on biotin only; if you take both and have a blood test coming up, mention the biotin. Collagen Powder is a single ingredient with no vitamins, so it sits alongside Bioskin with no overlap at all.

Bioskin's nine are formulated to be taken together, which is the point of putting them in one gummy. The pairs people ask about are usually about absorption, such as taking iron away from calcium; Bioskin contains neither. If you take several separate supplements, a pharmacist can check the overlap in a minute.

Yes. Two gummies a day is the recommended intake and Bioskin is made to be taken daily, every nutrient at a day's worth. Keep to two.

Speak to your GP or midwife first, as the bottle advises. Bioskin carries a full day's worth of vitamin A as retinol, and pregnancy supplements are usually chosen with a professional.

Ask your GP or pharmacist first, as the bottle advises. The nutrients are at a day's worth each, but medication is individual.

Adults who want their skin, hair and nails nutrition in one bottle rather than a stack, and who want the whole day's worth of nine nutrients rather than one. Men and women. If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, on medication or under medical supervision, ask your GP first.

Yes. The nine nutrients contribute to the maintenance of normal skin, hair and nails for everyone.

Strawberry and blueberry, from natural flavourings and real blueberry and apple juice concentrates. It's a proper gummy, sweet and soft, which is why taste is one of the things people mention most about it, and why it's two a day rather than a handful.

Bioskin is a glucose-and-sucrose gummy, so it's a sweet one; the sugar per two gummies is on the bottle's nutrition table. It's two gummies a day.

Yes. Pectin instead of gelatine, anthocyanins from plants for colour, vitamin D3 and every other nutrient from vegan-suitable sources. No animal ingredients.

No declared allergens. The full ingredient list is in the Read the Box tab; selenium is provided as selenium-enriched yeast.

They carry the same nutrients. A gummy is chewed with a meal rather than swallowed with water, which is the reason most people choose it, and Bioskin fits nine nutrients into two. If you already take tablets happily, keep taking them.

A biotin gummy is one nutrient in strength, for one job. Bioskin is nine nutrients at a full day's worth each, for skin's three jobs, with hair and nails covered on the way. Wellgard makes both: Biohair for the hair job, Bioskin for the rest.

It covers vitamins A, D, E, C, B6, B12, biotin, zinc and selenium at a day's worth each. It doesn't carry iron, calcium, magnesium, folate or iodine, so if your multivitamin is there for those, keep it and add up the overlap.

See your GP or a pharmacist first. Sudden change can have causes worth checking, and a supplement isn't a substitute for that conversation. Bioskin will still be there afterwards.

A food supplement isn't a treatment for a skin condition. Bioskin's nutrients contribute to the maintenance of normal skin, to normal collagen formation and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. If you have a skin condition, a pharmacist or GP is the right first stop.

With a meal, whichever one you never skip. Breakfast for most people. The same meal each day is what makes it stick.

Chew it. The bottle says two gummies daily, chewed rather than swallowed whole.

Adults. If you're buying for a teenager, ask their GP first.

In a cool, dry place with the lid closed, out of reach of children.
