More, Please.
I find the taste to be pleasant. I wasn't thrilled to see that the "zero sugar" actually contains Xylitol and Sorbitol, so these aren't Whole30 Approved. BUT I actually can see a difference in my fingernails after a few months so I'm hooked and will keep taking them. I just wish they were in larger packages. 27 doesn't even cover the shortest month of the year. ALSO - FYI Xylitol and Borage are TOXIC to cats so if you have cats, make sure they do not have access.

Not "gummies", more like "slimies"
I cannot say to the effect as I have only been taking these for about a week. However, I was expecting a tasty-ish gummy chew ... these have a nice orange flavor when you first put them in your mouth which quickly turns to an oily flavor ... I made the mistake of chewing the first one ... almost a rancid oil taste. I have continued to take them hoping the oil just tastes that way and is not rancid ... but now I swallow them whole without chewing. For me, they go down easily as they are slippery ... think tiny flat oyster.

An Intriguing Little Gummy
The media could not be loaded. Nordic Naturals Zero Sugar Hair and Skin Gummy Chews come in a box with three foil packs of nine individually wrapped gummies each (so there are 27 gummies total). The foil packs likely serve a dual purpose: to keep each gummy fresh and so that they don't stick together in a glob.One of the foils arrived with a hole in it (see photo), which probably happened during packaging, as the box itself was sealed with a sticker.The consistency of the gummies is strange, much like a limp piece of "skin" from the top of Jell-O, but it doesn't bother me. They're basically the shape of the foil cells that they're housed in.The taste is light and pleasant, and the box says that they're strawberry lemonade flavored, though the gummies aren't big enough to really get a sense of a specific flavor. They're so wiggly, a gummy is chewed and swallowed in a single moment.Because my hair is thinning and my nails are somewhat weak, I've been researching nutients and supplements that MIGHT be beneficial. In my research, I've read quite a bit about biotin, borage oil, and GLA, all of which are found in this supplement, so I was excited to try it. (As with any supplement, always consult a healthcare professional to see what's right for you as an individual.)Note that biotin can be found naturally in eggs, meat, fish, nuts, seeds, organ meats, sweet potatoes and some vegetables, while borage is found in some salads and soups.This supplement has a serving size of 1 gummy a day. Each serving is 10 calories and has 1g of fat, (0g saturated or trans fat), 3mg biotin, 5mg sodium, 750mg borage oil, and 150mg GLA. (No gluten, milk derivatives, or artificial colors or flavors.)The price is comparable to other products that have similar ingredients and are manufactured as dietary supplements. I'd much rather eat these jiggly little gummies than swallow pills, and I do like that they're sugar-free, so I do really like this product!

Disgusting- do not buy
The chews are individually packaged in sheets that you must pop through the paper to release. As has been noted in previous remarks, it is very difficult to get the vitamin chewable out of the packaging because it is slippery and jelly-like. The taste is unpleasant. Why can't Nordic make these as a tablet?

Getting My Haircut More Often - Flavor and Texture Are Like High-End Dessert
I take this for my hair and skin. I'm not losing hair, but I feel like it's thinning. After consistently taking these for a couple weeks - it may be coincidence - but I need a haircut sooner than usual. I'm sold on the brand already and have used them for some time. I've been trying to do something about the lines in my fingernails, I'll update if there is any difference though it may take some time for that.As for the taste. I don't think they taste like strawberry lemonade at all. They taste (I'm pretty at good at figuring flavors out) like orangish cream. They really taste like if you mixed gelatin/orange/and heavy whipping cream, and the texture feels like when you mix gelatin with milk (like layered Jell-O). It tastes rich like cream.I honestly, after the first one I ate, went and gave one to my wife and said, "These taste like some kind of high-end dessert." So, except for the description not matching well the actual taste, which I think accounts for people being confused by the flavor, these are great.

Wonderful!
These vitamin gummies are a bit expensive, but I really think they're worth it.First of all, these are the most delicious vitamin gummies I've ever had. I felt like a little kid every lunch: so excited that I got to eat my vitamin! I also appreciate the quality of Nordic Naturals and their natural ingredients.These are individually packaged so they won't melt together, and I really appreciate that you only need to take one gummy, unlike so many hair/skin/nails vitamins. It is also nice that this is a targeted vitamin, providing biotin and borage oil; I like that they have these two main helpful things instead of a million different vitamins/minerals/etc. that might possibly help...and just need to be filtered out by your liver and kidneys.I have acne and thinning hair, both probably related to stress. Although I have not seen great improvement yet, I'm guessing it will probably take three months or more before I'd notice. I'm just glad to do something that should help.

Bad Taste!
These taste horrible! Nordic Naturals usually does a good job but these “orange” flavor one are nasty.
