NU SKIN TRADITION OF INNOVATION (Part I)
1984— USE OF NATURAL HUMECTANTS (HYALURANIC ACID AND SODIUM PCA) RATHER THAN MINERAL OIL
Nu Skin was one of the first to introduce a line of products featuring natural humectants (hyaluranic acid and Sodium PCA) to keep your skin hydrated and plump, instead of using inferior and harmful ingredients, such as mineral oil, that can clog your pores.
1996—PHARMANEX SCIENCE & 6S QUALITY PROCESS
With over 100 dedicated scientists on staff, and affiliations with 32 scientific institutions around the world, the Pharmanex R&D engine produces products that enable us to set new industry standards in anti-aging. Pharmanex created the 6S Quality Process to ensure that each product is manufactured according to the highest quality standards through all stages of product development. These six processes include selection, sourcing, structure, standardization, safety, and substantiation.
1998—NU SKIN ACQUIRES PHARMANEX
Recognizing a huge opportunity to create a comprehensive approach to anti-aging, Nu Skin acquired Pharmanex, and in the process added many innovative nutritional supplements to its product portfolio.
1999—AHA’S
The Nu Skin 180 System was the first of its kind when it was introduced in 1999. By accelerating the natural exfoliation process using alpha hydroxyacids, this system reverses the full range of aging effects on your skin in as little as 7 days.
1999—PHARMANEX LAUNCHES THREE INNOVATIVE NEW PRODUCTS
Using a unique pharmaceutical approach to natural health care, Pharmanex launched three innovative products in 1999.
• Tegreen 97: One of the most potent antioxidant products on the market, Tegreen 97 provides cell protection and supports skin health by repairing sun damage and combating fine wrinkles.
• CordyMax Cs-4: Proven to be clinically effective to restore energy and promote longevity, CordyMax contains the highest concentration of active Cordyceps mushroom constituents available.
• BioGinkgo 27/7: Contains an exclusive extra strength preparation of ginkgo biloba leaf extract to promote healthy memory and concentration.
2001—PEPTIDES
Although peptides were a relatively unknown at this time, Nu Skin was one of the first to bring peptide technology to market with Tru Face Line Corrector which features pro-collagen peptides. Distributors were among the first to start educating consumers about peptides and the effects they can have on important action sites in the skin. Specifically, pro-collagen peptides are designed to send age-reversing signals to collagen-producing cells, promoting younger looking skin.
2001—COLORLESS CAROTENOIDS
Nu Skin was one of the first to introduce a topical application of the powerful group of antioxidants, carotenoids, in a colorless form with the introduction of the Moisture Restore Day Protective Lotion. Until now, topical applications were bright orange in color and were difficult for the consumer to use.
2003—THE PHARMANEX BIO-PHOTONIC SCANNER AND LIFEPAK
The combination of these products has proven to be disruptive technology. Nu Skin was the first and only company to offer consumers an exclusive way to measure how well their supplements were working. This changed the way consumers look at their health and quality of life.
“When we first launched LifePak by Pharmanex it was the first most comprehensive multi-vitamin and micronutrient anti-aging product. With the Bio-photonic Scanner, we were the first company back in 2003 with the ability to measure antioxidants in the body. Not just in a test tube, but in the body, and then be able to show our customers that after taking LifePak they have better overall antioxidant protection.” Joe Chang, Chief Scientific Officer
2004—ETHOCYN
A featured ingredient in Tru Face Essence and later in Tru Face Essence Ultra, Ethocyn is the first and only ingredient to be clinically proven to actually increase the level of elastin fibers in your skin to levels typically found in most 18-25 year-olds. This product delivers significant firming benefits to the appearance of the skin.
2005—LIFEPAK NANO
Utilizing a proprietary, first-to-market nanotechnology process, LifePak Nano offers complete, balanced anti-aging nutrition that is highly absorbable in the body. LifePak Nano is one of the most scientifically-advanced anti-aging supplements on the market.
2007—AT-HOME GALVANIC SPA
Originally launched in 2001, the patented Nu Skin Galvanic Spa was the first to give you spa results in the comfort of your home. In 2007, the spa became truly disruptive technology when it was introduced to the masses in a new kit accompanied by the “Galvanic Demo”, an activity that introduced a consumer to the spa by using it on half their face. The result? A remarkable demonstration of how to take years off your appearance after only one 5-minute treatment.
OUR SCIENCE
INNOVATIVE. PROPRIETARY. COLLABORATIVE.
Scientific innovation has established Nu Skin as a leader in the nutritional and personal care industries. Our proprietary product formulations and technologies enable us to set new industry standards in anti-aging, with real solutions that exhibit demonstrable results. Our team of in-house scientists located in three global research centers demonstrates our commitment to research and development by collaborating with multiple leading research institutions. These collaborative relationships help us develop next-generation skin care and nutritional products with an enhanced understanding of the genetic basis of aging.
With this understanding, Nu Skin has developed the science to go beyond the symptoms of aging to target the ultimate sources of aging. This innovative approach is the result of years of unparalleled research in skin and nutritional science combined with some of the greatest minds in the scientific world. We are revolutionizing the health and beauty industries with products that offer comprehensive anti-aging solutions.
SOURCES OF AGING
Nu Skin is taking the science of anti-aging to a completely new level by studying the genetic origins of how and why we age. Developed by Nu Skin in collaboration with leading scientists, ageLOC science is based on the discovery of internal sources of aging that contribute to an aging appearance, what Nu Skin calls age-related super markers, or arSuperMarkers. Nu Skin’s exclusive ageLOC science targets these arSuperMarkers—the ultimate sources of aging that can influence how we age.
Based on this discovery, Nu Skin is able to identify critical arSuperMarkers called Youth Gene Clusters, which are functional groups of genes that regulate how we appear to age. Only ageLOC’s proprietary science understands how to reset these Youth Gene Clusters to their youthful patterns of activity. This revolutionary discovery is based upon Nu Skin’s exclusive collaborations with leading scientists around the globe, millions of dollars in development, and years of combined anti-aging and genetic research.
IDENTIFYING THE SOURCE
The scientific community has access to the Human Genome, but Nu Skin’s breakthrough ageLOC science gives us the ability to interpret it in a meaningful way. In a recent scientific discovery, Nu Skin, in collaboration with anti-aging and genetics experts, has identified key groups or functional clusters of genes—Youth Gene Clusters—that help influence how we age. Nu Skin believes that finding and identifying these functional groups of genes is the key to addressing aging at the source.
Clinical study results, genomic analyses, and substantiated research from ageLOC science has led Nu Skin scientists to identify specific functional Youth Gene Clusters that are responsible for youthful skin attributes. The expression of these genes is responsible for the signs of aging on our skin. Through ageLOC science, Nu Skin has the ability to reset these genes to behave more youthfully, helping to restore a more youthful balance in the skin.
RESETTING THE BALANCE
Once we identify these Youth Gene Clusters, it’s important to reset them to reflect a more youthful skin profile. Resetting Youth Gene Clusters is a subtle balancing process—it’s not as simple as turning them on and off. Some genes within the cluster may need to be turned up while others may need to be turned down. Nu Skin’s proprietary ageLOC science resets Youth Gene Clusters to create a youthful balance within each cluster—returning them to their youthful patterns of activity.
To be continued... ageLOC Science.
