About Our Biotin Gummies - Frequently Asked Questions
All of our Biotin Gummies are manufactured in facilities that follow strict food safety and quality control protocols. Each batch undergoes microbiological and stability testing to ensure it meets the highest standards for safety, consistency, and shelf life. Our UK manufacturing partners operate under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and are fully FSA-registered.
We are proud to manufacture our gummies under GMP-certified processes, ensuring hygiene, quality, and traceability at every stage—from sourcing ingredients to packaging. Our operations align with UK and EU regulations for food-grade supplements.
Our vitamin blend is formulated in the UK using ingredients sourced from trusted, traceable suppliers across the UK and EU. Each nutrient is selected not only for its quality but also for its ability to work in harmony with the others, supporting normal hair growth, help reduced shedding, and overall wellness.
We’re committed to clean, ethical beauty and wellness. Our gummies are vegan-friendly and cruelty-free, and we avoid the use of artificial sweeteners like aspartame or sucralose. We are always reviewing our formulation with a long-term goal to minimise synthetic additives and further reduce our environmental impact.
Our formulation is designed to be effective and enjoyable. We use glucose syrup, sugar, and natural raspberry flavouring to make our gummies delicious and easy to take daily. While these ingredients enhance taste and texture, we keep them minimal—each gummy contains just 15 calories. We avoid controversial sweeteners and emulsifiers, and although we use E133 (a permitted food colourant), we are currently exploring more natural colouring alternatives to better reflect our wellness values.
