No, marine collagen is derived from single-source fish from the North Atlantic. For our vegan and vegetarian customers: Our Super Beauty skin supplement is a plant based, vegan friendly way to support the body's own collagen production.
Two Islands Marine Collagen products have added Vitamin C to help with absorption.
Two Islands Marine Collagen is safe to consume during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, it is advised to discuss any supplement intake with your GP or Healthcare Professional before consumption, just to be safe.
Once absorbed through the small intestine, collagen peptides and free amino acids travel through the bloodstream to various parts of the body, including the dermis (the deepest layer of the skin) where research in animal models have shown they can remain for up to 14 days. Several studies have shown that collagen peptides can be efficiently absorbed and distributed to the skin, where they can stimulate fibroblasts (specialised cells in connective tissue) to increase the density and diameter of collagen fibres, as well as increase hyaluronic acid production and protect against UVA radiation.
Supplementing with marine collagen has been shown to increase collagen production, skin hydration and moisture, improve skin elasticity and reduce the signs of ageing.
Two Islands Collagen Beauty Powder and Collagen Beauty Capsules contains hydrolysed marine collagen peptides which is derived from fish skin. Because of their small particle size, hydrolysed collagen can reach the small intestine in the form of collagen peptides. Here they are broken down into smaller particles (dipeptides and tripeptides) and free amino acids where they can then be absorbed and distributed throughout the body via the bloodstream.
Previous research has shown that collagen derived peptides are resistant to gastrointestinal digestion and enzymes, which means they can be absorbed into the bloodstream.
Both our Marine Collagen Beauty Powder and Marine Collagen Beauty Capsules use the same high-quality, wild-caught MSC Certified marine collagen combined with vitamin C.
Our Marine Collagen Beauty Powder is high strength providing between 9.4g and 10g of Type 1 hydrolysed marine collagen per serve. Collagen powders are great for adding flavour to your coffee, smoothie, tea or baking and allow you to customise your daily collagen serve.
Our Marine Collagen Beauty Capsules are an easy and convenient way of taking collagen. With 500mg of hydrolysed marine collagen per capsules, just 2 capsules a day is all you need to maintain hydrated skin, healthy hair and strong nails. They require no mixing or preparation, no need to be near a kitchen. Take them alongside your other supplements or with you on the go, keep in your bag or at the office.
Both our Marine Collagen Beauty Capsules and Powders can have a role in your self-care routine. You may prefer capsules during the week and a flavoured powder to upgrade your coffee or smoothie on the weekends. Whatever fits your daily routines and is easiest for you is the best way to take your daily collagen.
Harvested from the North Atlantic Ocean, our marine collagen is sourced from wild-caught cod, exclusively and sustainably sourced in accordance with stringent Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) standards.
Formulated with unique bioactive collagen peptides, our Type I hydrolysed marine collagen is highly bioavailable, meaning it is extremely well absorbed in the body. Because of its small particle size, it is 1.5x more efficiently absorbed by the body compared to bovine or porcine derived collagen and is an easy way to provide your body with collagen peptides to support the appearance of hydrated, smooth skin, strong nails and healthy hair, as well as joint and gut health.
The Marine Stewardship Council is an international non-profit organisation who recognise and reward efforts to protect oceans and safeguard seafood supplies for the future. MSC certification is an independent and transparent process, where only fisheries that meet the rigorous requirements get certified. When you choose products with MSC certification, you’re choosing wild caught seafood that can be traced back to a sustainable source. You can read more about MSC certification here.

Combat the visible signs of premature ageing
Collagen makes up about 75-80% of our skin's structure, providing a sort of scaffolding. As we age, our body’s ability to naturally produce collagen declines. From around our mid-twenties, production drops by around 1% per year, with a 30-50% total loss in women by post-menopause.
Other factors like smoking, stress, over exposure to sunlight and a poor diet can also cause a decrease in the amount of collagen our body produces which can lead to visible signs of premature ageing including fine lines, dry skin, thin hair, brittle nails, and can result in joint problems due to weakened cartilage.
Our Collagen Beauty Capsules are ideal for those who prefer the convenience of capsules over powder or want to be able to take your collagen with you on the go, to support skin hydration, nail growth and healthy hair (especially postpartum).
