Better skin in a month!’—David Beckham’s pricey supplement put to the ultimate test

A beauty editor tried David Beckham’s IM8 vitamin drink for a month—was it a miracle or a myth?

David Beckham has officially stepped into the wellness industry with IM8, a premium all-in-one supplement packed with 92 vitamins, minerals, and probiotics. The football legend claims it’s the ultimate daily health boost, but at £99 per tub (or £79 on subscription), does it live up to the hype?

I swapped my morning coffee for Beckham’s vitamin drink for a month to find out.

First Impressions: Luxe Packaging, But a Pricey Commitment

The IM8 starter kit arrived looking sleek—a tin, scoop, and insulated cup were included, making it feel like a premium purchase. Unlike traditional supplements, which often involve swallowing multiple pills, this powder simply dissolves in water.

The Taste Test: More Berry Squash Than Green Smoothie

IM8 is flavoured with acai and mixed berries, giving it a taste reminiscent of fruit squash. Unlike popular alternatives like AG1, which has an earthy, green flavour, Beckham’s blend is more approachable for those who dislike traditional health drinks. However, I personally prefer a more natural taste.

The Results: Brighter Skin, More Energy—but at a Cost

After a month of daily use, I noticed:
✔ Clearer Skin – My persistent breakouts improved, though I had also changed my skincare routine.
✔ Sustained Energy – Unlike the usual coffee crash, IM8 kept my energy steady throughout the morning.
✔ Convenience – No more taking multiple supplements—it’s all in one drink.

But there were drawbacks:
❌ Expensive – £79–£99 a month is steep compared to other options.
❌ Gritty Texture – The last sip had an unpleasant, slightly grainy consistency.
❌ Uncertain Results – While my skin improved, it’s hard to say if IM8 was solely responsible.

Final Verdict: Worth It or Overhyped?

IM8 delivers on convenience and taste, making it ideal for those who dislike pills or already spend heavily on vitamins. But if you’re on a budget, cheaper alternatives like AG1 (£59) or Protein Works All In Greens (£34.99) might be better options.

For now, Beckham’s vitamin empire is off to a promising start—but the £99 price tag may keep many fans on the sidelines.
