For skin and glow
I focus on supporting my skin from within instead of only relying on skincare. These are the supplements that helped me the most with glow, hydration and breakouts. Some I still take, others I used consistently for a few months and then stopped once ...
I used collagen daily for a few months when I was focusing on improving my skin texture and hair strength. After I saw results, I stopped for a while and now I only reintroduce it when I feel like my skin needs extra support.

I take vitamin C mostly during colder months or when I want extra skin brightness and immune support. I don’t take it all year round. I prefer to take vitamin C like this, from bags.

I took zinc consistently during a breakout phase and it really helped calm my skin. I don’t take it daily anymore, only short term when needed.

This is one I come back to often. It helps with skin hydration and overall inflammation, especially when my skin feels dry or irritated.

For hormones and cycle balance
These are supplements I’ve used to support my cycle, reduce PMS and feel more balanced. I’m very careful here, I don’t mix too many things and I only use what feels necessary.
I use magnesium mostly in the evening, especially before my period. It helps with cramps and relaxation. This is one of my staples.

I tried inositol for a few months to support hormonal balance and cycle regularity. It helped, so now I only reintroduce it if I feel like my cycle needs support again.

For energy and focus
I don’t like overstimulating my body. I prefer gentle, sustainable energy support instead of relying on caffeine.
I took B-complex during a stressful period when I felt constantly tired. It helped, but I don’t use it daily anymore. I used it for my appetite too, it helped me eat more since I was having problems with gaining weight.

I use use this type of electrolytes occasionally, after workouts, travel, or when I feel dehydrated. Not daily, just when needed.

Sleep and nervous system support are priorities for me. I never mix too many calming supplements at once, I keep it simple.
