The Beauty Chef – Deep Marine Collagen

RRP: $75.00

GOLD + Editor’s Choice

Deep Marine Collagen is a sustainable hydrolysed marine collagen derived from North Atlantic cod. It improves skin elasticity, hydration and protects collagen. Equipped with Bioavailability Factors™ like bromelain and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GUT5Y™, it aids collagen digestion and promotes digestive wellbeing. This unflavoured powder can be easily incorporated into a daily diet.

Clean

Made from excellent clean ingredients including MSC certified sustainable marine collagen, digestive enzyme bromelain and a probiotic.

Ethical

The Beauty Chef's Deep Marine Collagen is manufactured in Australia with three ingredients sourced from around the world due to a lack of sustainable sources in Australia. The brand has a commitment to ethical sourcing practices that do not harm the environment and they refuse to support any manufacturer or supplier involved in modern slavery or child slave labour. The brand stores guarantee documentation from suppliers to ensure ethical practices are being followed.

Sustainable

The Beauty Chef is committed to sustainability in its ingredient sourcing and packaging. The brand promotes and sources Australian ingredients where possible and indicates the percentage of local ingredients in each product. If local ingredients are not available, unsustainable, or do not meet strict ingredient criteria, the brand looks for high-quality ingredients elsewhere. They are dedicated to finding ethical and sustainable supply chains for ingredients and avoiding those with questionable environmental impacts. The brand's Deep Marine Collagen product is an example of its commitment to sustainability with 100% sustainably-sourced marine collagen peptides and fully recyclable packaging. The brand has become a signatory to the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation and aims to have all packaging refillable, reusable, recyclable, or compostable by 2025.

Responsible

The brand has partnered with The Food & Mood Centre at Deakin University to raise awareness of the link between gut health, diet, and mental health and sponsored a research project exploring the effects of fermented foods on skin and gut health. Additionally, the brand has supported the Royal Hospital for Women in Randwick, Sydney for the past two years.

Product reviews from our experts…

I appreciate that this marine collagen has been sustainably sourced and that it contains extra ingredients to support bioavailability including bromelains. It also includes a probiotic strain developed in house by the brand. The powder dissolves easily into water, has no flavour and can easily be added to smoothies and juices.

I’m also impressed by Beauty Chef’s huge commitment to ethical and sustainable sourcing of ingredients, sustainable packaging and giving back to society.

Neutral taste, I love that it contains bromelain, probiotics and is made of north atlantic cod! MSC standards are a big tick, ethical sources etc. It is also good to see that they aim to have all packaging refillable, recyclable etc by 2025.

The Beauty Chef has created a fine powered, neutral-tasting and sustainably sourced marine collagen that can easily be added to food or drink. I love the thoughtful addition of bromelain to support collagen digestion and a probiotic strain for digestive wellbeing.

It is impressive that The Beauty Chef is committed to using ethically and sustainably sourced ingredients. I also love that the brand is involved in raising awareness of the critical link between gut health and mental health!
