On this formulation

Marine collagen, enzymatically hydrolysed into low-molecular-weight peptides. Tasteless and odourless — designed to dissolve into morning coffee, tea, smoothie, or water without changing the flavour.

Beauty from within

One scoop. Any drink.

  1. Mix

    One scoop into coffee, tea, smoothie, or water.

  2. Drink

    Tasteless and odourless — no flavour intrusion.

  3. Continue

    Most who take marine collagen do so as a long-term part of their daily routine.

How it works

Low-molecular-weight marine peptides.

Whole collagen is a large protein. Hydrolysis is the enzymatic process that breaks it into smaller peptides — under 3,000 Daltons in our case. The result is a fine powder that dissolves cleanly in liquids and contributes a daily dose of marine-sourced amino acids to your routine.

The peptide profile and amino acid content are reported on each batch.

  • Coffee compatible.

    Mixes into my morning espresso without changing the taste at all. I used to give up on collagen because of the smell. This one stays.

  • Easy daily habit.

    Three months in and the morning coffee routine still feels right. The packaging makes it easy to scoop and put away.

  • Honest review.

    It took me a couple of months to settle into the daily habit. Once it did, mixing it into morning coffee became automatic. I appreciate that the brand does not promise miracles.

Considered questions

You asked, plainly answered.

  • Marine versus bovine collagen — what is the difference?

    Both are collagen. Marine collagen is predominantly Type I; bovine collagen contains both Type I and Type III. The choice between them is largely about source preference. We chose marine because it integrates cleanly into our coastal sourcing story and is processed without animal land-source ingredients.

  • Will this taste fishy in coffee?

    No. Hydrolysed marine collagen is processed to be tasteless and odourless. We test every batch in coffee, tea, and water to confirm before shipping.

  • Is this safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

    We do not recommend any supplement during pregnancy or breastfeeding without speaking to your doctor or midwife first.

  • Can I take this with other supplements?

    Yes — most pairings are fine. If you take prescription medication, please speak with your physician before starting any new supplement.

  • What is your return policy?

    30 days on unopened bottles. Opened bottles can be returned within 14 days if you found the product unsuitable.

  • Where is this made?

    Formulated in Oslo and produced in a GMP-certified Norwegian facility. Each batch is third-party tested for identity, purity, and contaminants.

  • Do you offer a subscription?

    Yes. A monthly or bi-monthly delivery is available at checkout, with a 15% standing discount and free shipping. You can pause or cancel at any time.
