Vitamin Ingredients

Biotin, B vitamins, marine collagen, keratin, MSM and bamboo extract. Discover what our two daily heart-shaped gummies contain and how they fit into your hair care routine.
You apply shampoo to your scalp and work oil through your partings. Nutrients from food and supplements take a different route: they are digested, absorbed and distributed by the body according to its needs.
That is why nutrition has its own place in hair care. Hair follicle cells need nutrients, just like other living tissues. Adequate energy, protein and a varied diet form the foundation. A food supplement can complement your diet with specific ingredients in stated amounts.
VERONICA SHY Hair Gummies contain ten vitamins and four other ingredients: marine collagen, hydrolysed keratin, MSM and bamboo extract. The daily serving is two green apple-flavoured heart-shaped gummies. Let’s look at what each ingredient means.
Biotin and Its Relationship with Hair
Biotin is vitamin B7. It plays a role in nutrient metabolism and contributes to the maintenance of normal hair. This is an authorised health claim for foods that meet its conditions of use. EU authorised health claims.
Two of our heart-shaped gummies contain 5,000 μg, or 5 mg, of biotin. This is the most effective amount.
Ten Vitamins, Each with Its Own Role
Vitamins work together in the body, but they are not interchangeable. Some contribute to energy metabolism, others to cell division or the maintenance of normal skin.
Collagen and Keratin: What Happens After You Take Them?
Hair is made primarily of keratin. Collagen is a different protein, important in connective tissues, for example. Both names appear frequently in beauty products, but how they are used makes a fundamental difference.
Protein applied to hair acts on the hair fibre. Protein taken orally is broken down into smaller components during digestion, and the body uses the absorbed substances according to its needs. Whole keratin or collagen does not travel directly from a gummy into a hair strand.
What Gives Each Gummy Its Shape and Flavour?
A clear ingredient list also includes the substances that create the supplement’s form. They give each gummy its flavour, texture and surface finish. A pectin-based format does not make the whole product vegan: it contains marine collagen.
