Nutricentials is a revolutionary skincare line that combines science and nature.
The result is an incredibly versatile product range that fulfils the needs of modern skincare while ignoring age and skin type.
The key element is our bioadaptive botanical complex, which can be found in all of our new products. Through innovative science, Nu Skin took extracts from the resurrection plant, the Chaga mushroom, Siberian ginseng, maral root, and arctic root – five plants that adapt to the extreme conditions in which they’re found – and turned them into something that works for our skin. The idea is simple. When present in a high enough concentration, as is the case for our five new creams and our powerful serum – our leave-on products – the bioadaptive complex will help your skin adapt to its own environment. This means it will stay radiant and glowing, even when faced with challenges like pollution, UV rays, changes in humidity, and even the stress of a hectic lifestyle.
Bioadaptive skincare is truly unique. Some aspects are very different from what you’ve come to know as normal. Although the science behind the products is complex, this document helps you to address the most frequently asked questions simply and clearly.
Bioadaptive Skincare
- What is it?
If something is bioadaptive, it is able to adapt to changing conditions in its environment. In this case, all of our new creams and our serum – our leave-on products – help your skin do exactly that.
- Why is it important?
Most of the challenges our skin faces are direct results of our environment, but your skin has different needs in different situations. By helping your skin adapt to its surroundings, it can better protect itself against the challenges it faces every day.
- How does it work?
The key is our bioadaptive botanical complex. We took extracts from five plants that thrive in extreme conditions and turned them into something that works for our skin. In all of our leave-on products, these ingredients will help your skin adapt to its own environment, contributing to a radiant and glowing complexion, even when faced with challenges like pollution, stress, and UV rays, among others.
The role of nature
- Is Nutricentials all natural, or even vegan?
Nutricentials is not an all-natural product, but that’s not a bad thing! We combine nature with science to get the most from these ingredients and help them work with our skin. While it is not vegan certified, Nutricentials does not contain any products originating from animals.
- What plants do we use, and where do they come from?
Amongst others, Nutricentials uses extracts from the resurrection plant, the Chaga mushroom, Siberian ginseng, maral root, and Arctic root – five plants that thrive in extreme conditions, such as deserts, harsh soils, and really cold environments.
- What does each plant do?
Each plant was chosen for its unique characteristics and resiliency:
1. The Arctic Root is extremely efficient at pulling nutrients from the soil and stores them for when it needs them most.
2. The Chaga mushroom grows and thrives in temperatures as low as -20˚ C.
3. Siberian ginseng is widely tolerant of different types of soil and acidity. It grows where it pleases!
4. Maral Root contains a rich source of phytoecdysteroids, helping it remain resilient.
5. The resurrection plant thrives in dry desert environments. It can survive through long periods of drought to bloom again at the first touch of moisture.
- Why not go al natural?
Natural ingredients are a hugely important part of Nutricentials, but they don’t hold all the answers. Combining them with our science is crucial in creating an effective and high-quality formula.
The Science
- What makes bioadaptive skincare so unique?
Nutricentials is the first skincare range to combine our unique science with bioadaptive botanicals. Because the system helps your skin adapt, skin types can become a thing of the past. It truly is suitable for anyone over the age of 18, whether you’re 25 or 75, living in the centre of a busy city or out in the wild!
- Why did we choose these plants?
Each of the five plants whose extracts we use were chosen for their unique characteristics of adaptability and resiliency. It’s not just a matter of inspiration, however. With the right tweak, they offer a range of valuable benefits to our skin.
- How do these active ingredients work with our skin?
This is where our science comes in. First, our blend of bioadaptive botanicals is treated with natural enzymes, replicating the work our skin would need to do to break these extracts down. The blend is then extensively purified and filtered to make sure we keep the most beneficial parts, resulting in higher bioavailability.
- What is the HydraFlex blend?
The HydraFlex blend is a unique blend of ingredients found exclusively in Celltrex Always Right. It adapts to your environment moment-by-moment by drawing in moisture and avoiding water loss as needed, ensuring that your skin has just the right amount of hydration in every situation.
- How does Nutricentials protect my skin from blue light?
Both of our day moisturisers contain blue light protecting and UV filtering ingredients that help to reduce the negative effects of excessive blue light, infrared, and UV exposure have on our skin.
Skin types
- Is there a product that suits my skin type?
Thirteen of them, in fact. Nutricentials is all about choice, meaning every product is suitable for you. We even have different textures for you to choose from, helping you to really customise your experience.
- Is Nutricentials suitable for all skin types?
Absolutely. Our formulas are suitable for anyone with oily skin, dry skin, sensitive skin – you name it. With Nutricentials, you can forget about skin types altogether and simply choose whatever products you prefer! Our leave-on products are also non-comedogenic, meaning they won’t block pores, so even the products with richer textures can be enjoyed by everybody.
- Are they more suitable for older or younger consumers?
While Nutricentials targets skin concerns most often faced by those between 25 and 35, it shouldn’t exclude anybody over the age of 18. After all, we all want and deserve beautiful, glowing looking skin, and that’s something this range can help with, no matter who you are or where you’re from.
