Skin & Hair Beauty
Everyday beauty-focused nutrient support
Skin & Hair Beauty is a multi-nutrient formula built around vitamins and minerals commonly used in appearance-focused routines. It combines biotin, zinc, selenium, vitamin C, and a full set of B-vitamins in one daily serving. The overall aim is to support normal physiological functions that relate to hair, skin, and nail maintenance.
Hair, skin and nail maintenance nutrients
D-biotin is included as a key beauty nutrient often used for hair and nail upkeep. Zinc citrate and selenium (as L-selenomethionine) complement this by providing trace minerals that support normal tissue maintenance and cellular processes. Together, these nutrients are commonly chosen to help cover dietary gaps that may affect appearance-related goals.
Collagen-supportive nutrition
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) contributes to normal collagen formation, which is relevant to skin structure and connective tissues. This makes vitamin C a practical addition to a skin-focused supplement routine, especially when paired with supportive micronutrients. The formula is designed for consistent daily use rather than short-term changes.
Antioxidant-related support
Vitamin C and selenium contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, supporting general wellness. Riboflavin (vitamin B2) also participates in normal redox and energy pathways. This antioxidant-related angle is supportive and complements the primary beauty positioning.
B-vitamin coverage for daily metabolism
The B-vitamin blend (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12) supports normal energy-yielding metabolism and helps provide cofactor coverage for everyday nutritional needs. These vitamins are included to complement the core beauty nutrients rather than replace a balanced diet. This can be useful during busy periods when food variety is inconsistent.
Mineral base and formulation components
Calcium citrate provides a well-known calcium form, adding a broader mineral component to the formula. The product also contains standard food-supplement excipients such as sweeteners, acids, and anti-caking agents to support taste, stability, and manufacturing performance. The combination is intended to be straightforward to integrate into a daily routine.

Voordelen
Hair, Skin & Nails
Designed to support everyday hair, skin, and nail maintenance with a focused blend of biotin (D-biotin), zinc (zinc citrate), and selenium (L-selenomethionine). Vitamin C and B-vitamins complement the formula by supporting normal collagen formation and nutrient metabolism that can be relevant to appearance-focused routines. This is suited for people looking to maintain a consistent beauty-support supplement habit alongside diet and skincare.
Skin Health
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) contributes to normal collagen formation, which is commonly included in skin-focused supplement routines. Zinc citrate and riboflavin (vitamin B2) add nutritional support for normal skin maintenance. This use case fits daily wellness support where skin appearance is a priority, without implying specific outcomes.
Antioxidant Support
Vitamin C and selenium (from L-selenomethionine) are included as nutrients that contribute to protection of cells from oxidative stress. Riboflavin (vitamin B2) also supports antioxidant-related pathways in normal physiology. This can be relevant for general lifestyle support during periods of higher environmental or training-related stress.
Energy Metabolism
The B-vitamin set (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12) supports normal energy-yielding metabolism and can be used as part of a daily routine when dietary intake may vary. Niacin, pantothenic acid, and vitamin B6 are commonly used to support metabolic cofactor coverage. This benefit is supportive rather than the main focus of the formula.
Bone Health
Calcium citrate provides a source of calcium that can help support normal bone maintenance as part of overall mineral intake. Vitamin C also supports normal collagen formation, which is a structural component relevant to connective tissues. This is a peripheral benefit in this formula compared with the beauty-focused nutrient profile.
