Founded 35 years ago, Nu Skin develops and distributes innovative consumer products, offering a comprehensive line of premium-quality beauty and wellness solutions. The company builds upon its scientific expertise in both skin care and nutrition to continually develop innovative product brands that include the Nu Skin personal care brand, the Pharmanex nutrition brand, and most recently, the ageLOC anti-aging brand.
The ageLOC brand has generated a loyal following for such products as the ageLOC LumiSpa skin cleansing and treatment device, ageLOC Youth nutritional supplement, the ageLOC Me customized skin care system, as well as the ageLOC TR90 weight management and body shaping system. Nu Skin sells its products through a global network of sales leaders in Asia, the Americas, Europe, Africa and the Pacific. As a long-standing member of direct selling associations globally, Nu Skin is committed to the industry’s consumer guidelines that protect and support those who sell and purchase its products.
Most companies define themselves by their product. Ask Nu Skin what they do, and they’ll tell you: They’re an empowerment company. Founded in 1984 in Provo, Utah, Nu Skin now operates in nearly 50 markets with more than 60,000 independent distributors.
Nu Skin’s sales leaders use a cloud-based sales and networking platform to build their own businesses. This helps Nu Skin’s entrepreneurs do what they do best: sell Nu Skin’s high quality products.
Nu Skin invests similarly in its internal team. Behind its products is a team of scientists and botanical experts. Nu Skin products are deeply rooted in world-class science such as the research in gene expression that is utilized in the company’s ageLOC line of products and the numerous published scientific articles from its team of more than 75 in-house scientists. These experts find the best ingredients and develop unique technology that has received multiple patents in skin and hair technology.
Some of those patents lie in devices like the ageLOC LumiSpa, an innovative facial cleansing and treatment tool that oscillates and vibrates to scrub away dirt and makeup while renewing the skin; and Facial Spa, a handheld device that uses microcurrent technology to stimulate and tone skin. The company’s strength in technology is evident in its award-winning products that have led to Nu Skin being ranked the world’s number one at-home beauty device system brand.*
The company’s already stringent 6S sourcing process adds to the transparency of its products. But consumers are increasingly demanding that ingredients are pure, clean and sustainable in their products. This is why Nu Skin has developed and invested in ingredient-sourcing innovations like controlled-environment agriculture (CEA). Using artificial intelligence to maintain the perfect water, sunlight, and soil conditions, Nu Skin is working toward sourcing pure and safe ingredients in a cost-effective way.
“At Nu Skin, we have always focused on using only the best, most effective ingredients in our products,” said Ritch Wood, CEO of Nu Skin. “This is a natural evolution in our commitment to innovate where we intend to infuse the best of nature, the latest in science and the most advanced technology into pure, safe and sustainable products.”
