Skin health supplements and skincare nutrition work from the inside out. While topical products address the surface, what you put into your body plays a role in how your skin, hair, and nails are maintained day to day. The Beauty & Skincare range brings together formulas built around key nutrients — vitamins, minerals, and targeted ingredients — designed to sit alongside your existing routine.
From collagen-supporting vitamins to biotin for hair and nails, these products are straightforward and purposeful. No fluff, no filler — just well-formulated supplements made by Myprotein's expert nutritionists, available in formats that fit easily into your daily life.
Who Beauty & Skincare Supplements Are For
These supplements are for anyone who takes a considered approach to their appearance and wants to back it up from the inside. Whether you're already consistent with your skincare routine and looking to complement it nutritionally, or you're simply making sure you're hitting key micronutrient targets, the Beauty & Skincare range covers a wide range of goals.
Skincare supplements are also a practical choice for those whose diet may not consistently deliver the full spectrum of skin- and hair-relevant nutrients — think vitamin C, biotin, zinc, and vitamin E. They're not a replacement for good habits, but they're a solid addition to them.
When to Use Beauty & Skincare Supplements
Most beauty and skincare supplements work best when taken consistently at the same time each day. Many people find it easiest to take them alongside a meal — this helps establish the habit and, for fat-soluble vitamins like vitamin E, can be beneficial for absorption. Capsules and tablets are straightforward to work into a morning routine, while powdered formats can be added to a smoothie or drink.
There's no single "best" time for most skincare supplements — what matters more is regularity. If you're combining multiple products, spreading them across meals throughout the day is a reasonable approach. Check the label on each product for specific guidance on serving size and timing.
Beauty & Skincare Supplement Benefits
Vitamin C for Collagen Formation
Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin1. Collagen is a structural protein found throughout the body, and vitamin C plays a direct role in its production. Many beauty supplements include vitamin C as a core ingredient for this reason.
Biotin for Hair and Skin
Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal hair2 and normal skin3. It's one of the most widely used ingredients in beauty nutrition supplements, often found in dedicated hair, skin, and nail formulas. It's part of the B-vitamin family and is needed at relatively modest daily amounts.
Zinc for Skin and Nails
Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin4 and normal nails5. It's a trace mineral that features across a broad range of supplement categories, and in the beauty space it's a staple ingredient. Zinc also contributes to the maintenance of normal hair6, making it a versatile inclusion in multi-nutrient beauty formulas.
Vitamin E for Cell Protection
Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress7. It's a fat-soluble antioxidant that appears frequently in skincare supplements, often alongside vitamin C. Together, these two vitamins are among the most studied nutrients in the context of skin health.

FAQs
What are skin health supplements?
Skin health supplements are ingestible products containing vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that play a role in maintaining normal skin, hair, and nails. Common ingredients include biotin, zinc, vitamin C, and vitamin E — all of which have established roles in the body that relate to normal skin and hair maintenance. They're taken orally and are designed to complement a balanced diet and topical skincare routine, not replace them.
What do skincare supplements typically contain?
Most skincare supplements are built around a core group of micronutrients. Biotin, zinc, vitamin C, vitamin E, and selenium are among the most frequently included ingredients, as each has a recognised role in maintaining normal skin, hair, or nails. Some formulas also include collagen peptides or hyaluronic acid, while others focus on a single key ingredient. The format varies too — capsules, tablets, and powders are all common.
How do beauty supplements differ from topical skincare products?
Topical skincare products work on the surface of the skin directly, while beauty and skincare supplements deliver nutrients internally. These are two different approaches that many people use alongside each other. Supplements like vitamin C and biotin work within the body's normal processes, contributing to things like collagen formation1 and normal hair maintenance2, rather than acting on the skin from the outside.
Who developed the beauty supplements at Myprotein?
Myprotein's beauty and skincare supplements are developed by Myprotein's expert nutritionists. Each formula is put together with attention to ingredient quality, dosage, and the nutritional science behind each key ingredient — from the biotin levels needed to contribute to normal hair2 to the vitamin C required to contribute to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin1.
How long should I take beauty supplements before noticing a difference?
Supplements work gradually as part of your body's normal nutritional processes, so consistency matters more than timing. Most people commit to a supplement routine for at least 8–12 weeks before making any assessment. Taking them daily, at the same time, alongside a meal is the most practical approach. Keep expectations grounded — supplements provide nutritional support, not instant cosmetic results.
Can I take multiple beauty and skincare supplements together?
Many beauty supplement ranges are formulated to be used alongside each other, and most people take more than one supplement daily without issue. That said, it's worth checking that you're not doubling up on the same nutrient across multiple products at levels that exceed recommended daily amounts. Reading the label of each product and sticking to the suggested serving sizes is always the right starting point.
What formats do beauty supplements come in?
Beauty and skincare supplements are available in several formats, including capsules, tablets, softgels, and powders. Capsules and tablets are the most convenient option for a daily routine, while powders offer more flexibility if you prefer adding your supplements to a drink. The best format is simply the one you'll take consistently — the routine matters more than the delivery method.
Are beauty supplements suitable for vegans?
Vegan suitability varies by product and depends on both the ingredients and the capsule material used. Gelatin-based softgels, for example, are not vegan, while many tablets and plant-based capsule formats are. Always check the individual product page for allergen and suitability information. Myprotein's expert nutritionists develop formulas across a range of dietary requirements, so vegan-friendly options are available within the range.
Which beauty supplement should I choose if I'm just getting started?
If you're new to skincare supplements, a broad-spectrum formula covering biotin, zinc, and vitamin C is a practical starting point — these are the nutrients most closely associated with normal hair, skin, and nail maintenance2, 4, 5, 1. If your main focus is building a nutritional base for your skin specifically, look for products with vitamin C, which contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin1, and vitamin E for its role in protecting cells from oxidative stress7.
Do beauty supplements work without a good diet?
Supplements are designed to complement a balanced diet, not replace one. If your overall nutrition is lacking, no supplement will fully bridge the gap. That said, even with a reasonably varied diet, hitting optimal levels of specific micronutrients like biotin or vitamin E consistently can be difficult — and that's where targeted supplements add practical value. They're best understood as a top-up, not a standalone solution.
