Designed for real life.

Spills happen. Like when you use your new hand-frother in a coffee cup that's a little too full. However, our new canister is tested to be leak-proof, spill proof and durable for busy lives and everyday usage. Plus, the materials come from responsibly managed, FSC®-certified forests. Go us.

The daily habit of
less plastic.

Our outsides may have gotten a makeover, but we’re the same Vital Proteins inside. With 20g of collagen peptides and 0g of sugar per serving, we make it easy to support your bones, joints, skin + nails.**^
