How to choose the right collagen supplement?

There are plenty of collagen supplements on the market today – powders, capsules, ampoules, various types and blends... But how do you choose one that makes sense, fits into your daily routine, and isn’t full of unnecessary additives?

In this article, you’ll find a practical overview of what to look for when choosing collagen – so you can select a quality product that suits your needs and lifestyle.

1. Pay attention to the type of collagen – Type I, II, III… or multi?

Collagen isn’t just one thing. Different types have different structures and are found in various parts of the body.

Type I and III – commonly found in the skin, hair, and nails
Type II – in cartilage
Type V and X – complement the previous collagen types, making complex collagen blends even more effective

💡If you're looking for comprehensive support from within, go for multi collagen – a combination of several types in one.

🛍️ For example, Divique Multi Collagen contains all 5 types of collagen – ideal for women who want complete care.

2. Look for collagen in the form of collagen peptides

Not all collagen is the same. The difference lies not only in the type but also in how it’s processed.

So-called hydrolysed collagen undergoes a special process in which the collagen is broken down into smaller parts – peptides.
This makes it easily digestible and ready for optimal absorption by the body. That’s why it’s one of the most popular forms in dietary supplements.

✅ All Divique products contain hydrolysed collagen – that is, collagen peptides.

3. Pay attention to the amount of collagen per daily dose

Not every supplement contains the same amount of collagen. Sometimes it’s more about marketing than an effective dose.

🟢 What should you look for?

The ideal dose is between 5–10 grams of collagen per day
Check the label: it should state the amount of collagen per daily serving

💪 Divique Multi Collagen contains 10,000 mg of hydrolysed collagen per serving – with no compromises.

4. Consider solubility and taste – practicality matters

Even the best collagen won’t help if you don’t like the taste or it doesn’t mix well.

🟢 That’s why you should look for:

Solubility – the powder should dissolve easily without clumps
Taste – ideally neutral, so it can be mixed into drinks, coffee, or smoothies
Aftertaste – quality collagen shouldn’t have a “fishy” or chemical aftertaste. But note – if the collagen is in its natural form and free from artificial additives, it will never be completely “tasteless.”

✅ Divique Multi Collagen has an almost neutral taste, is odourless, and offers excellent solubility – no sugar, no colourants, no compromises.

5. Ingredients: Less is sometimes more

Check the label. A quality product can also be recognised by what’s not in it.

🛑 Watch out for:

added sugar, artificial sweeteners, colourants
vague “complexes” or marketing terms without explanation
blends without the exact amount of active ingredient specified

✅ At Divique, you’ll find a simple, clean, and effective formula – only what truly matters.

6. Combinations that make sense

The effect of a collagen supplement can be enhanced with additional active ingredients.

💡 What makes sense:

Vitamin C – contributes to normal collagen formation
Hyaluronic acid – popular among women who care about skin hydration
Zinc, biotin, copper, selenium – trace elements commonly found in beauty supplements

🛍️ For example, Divique Collagen Hyaluron Capsules contain all these ingredients – in a convenient daily dose.

7. Choose the form that suits you best

You can take collagen in the form of:

Powder – mix it into smoothies, water, or coffee
Ampoules (shots) – ready to use, perfect for travel
Capsules – the simplest way, no preparation, no taste

Each form has its own benefits. If you enjoy rituals and want the maximum collagen dose, go for powder. If you travel often, ampoules are ideal. And if you prefer something simple – capsules are the way to go.
