Leamington Spa's Positive Science People wins Marie Claire Skin Award for Collavegan®

Positive Science People, a small business based in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, is proud to announce that its vegan collagen supplement, Collavegan®, has won the Marie Claire Skin Award in the Best Collagen Supplement category.

Founded by two passionate local entrepreneurs, Positive Science People is dedicated to creating science-backed, ethical nutrition and skincare solutions. Collavegan® is made in the UK and offers a plant-based alternative to traditional collagen supplements, aligning with the growing demand for sustainable, safe and cruelty-free products.

"We are thrilled to receive this recognition from Marie Claire," says Sandra Witzel, founder of Positive Science People. "As a small business rooted in Warwickshire, it is incredibly rewarding to see our commitment to ethical and effective skincare celebrated on a national stage. This award inspires us to continue innovating and providing the best for our customers."

The Marie Claire judges agreed “that the vegan alternative was effective and the packaging more sustainable than heavier liquids. Medical and Cosmetic Doctor, Dr Ewoma Ukeleghe likes that there are other vitamins and minerals within the formulation to help with hydration and elasticity, strengthening nails and making hair look glossy and healthy.”

In an industry where traditional, animal-based collagen supplements are becoming increasingly outdated due to ethical concerns and shifting consumer values, Positive Science People is disrupting the market with its innovative, plant-based formula. Animal-derived collagen often raises questions about sustainability and animal welfare, leading many to seek alternatives that align with a more conscientious lifestyle. Collavegan® not only addresses these concerns but also offers a safer and equally effective option for everyone - even those who aren't vegan. By pioneering this new trend, Collavegan® is reshaping the collagen industry and setting a precedent for the future of skincare supplements.

The Marie Claire Skin Awards highlight excellence and innovation in the beauty industry. This accolade places Positive Science People among the leading brands in wellness, emphasising the quality and effectiveness of their products.
