And for good hygiene, they provided a spatula to retrieve the night gelly.

Nicely cap with a spatula.

Spatula given.

The night gelly has a semi transparent gel texture. Also it produce a nice floral fragrance smell. Should be the smell of Narcissus I supposed. :)

Today review is on Brand's InnerShine Collagen 5000 Powder. This was redeemed from Brand's InnerShine Singapore Facebook page. 

This collagen 5000 powder although good for health, it don't really taste good by itself. But dissolving in other drinks taste perfectly fine. To me, I still prefer Brand's InnerShine Ruby Collagen. Taste better and more convenient than Brand's InnerShine Collagen 5000 Powder.

My Review
Brand's InnerShine Collagen 5000 Powder came in small sachet that is pretty convenient to bring around. 

Small sachet.

The powder itself does not give off any smell. 

Collagen 5000 powder

In order to taste the original collagen drink, I dissolve it in plain water. The powder is really easy to dissolve. 

Collagen powder drink mix in plain water.

The drink itself does not smell nice and it taste funny too. Not nice to drink really. 

Then I decided to mix it with other drink to see if it will be better. I mix the powder into Ribena and its so much better. No more funny taste.

As for effectiveness, well, I only taste 1 sample sachet. So its not really fair for me to judge its effectiveness. 

Overall, this collagen 5000 powder although good for health, it don't really taste good by itself. But dissolving in other drinks taste perfectly fine. To me, I still prefer Brand's InnerShine Ruby Collagen. Taste better and more convenient than Brand's InnerShine Collagen 5000 Powder.
