I'm always on the hunt for products that will make my skin look and feel younger...aren't we all? So naturally I was delighted when I was contacted by Neo Cell to try out their Beauty Bursts Gourmet Collagen Soft Chews. Let's learn more about them and what I thought:
About Neo Cell:

My Review:
- Before I reviewed these, I knew that vitamin C would cause me to temporarily break out, but happily used them regardless. I have had a life-long sensitivity to anything with citric acid (internal or external), which most people do not have, so I don't want that to be considered as a regular side effect.
- I reviewed the fruit punch chews, which were delicious, and reminded me of Starbursts candy.
- My nails did grow faster and stronger. I have had life-long weak nails, unless I am taking a supplement, plus I paint them very often, so having stronger nails was nice.
- My hair is very coarse, so I couldn't tell if it was stronger.
- While I didn't notice firmer skin, my skin became really, really, soft. I have super dry skin, so it's very noticeable if my skin feels softer.
- I think this is a great alternative to taking capsule supplements.
- If you are looking for softer skin and nails/hair to grow stronger, and you don't like swallowing capsules, I think the Neo Cell Beauty Bursts Soft Chews are a great option.
