Epoch’s 3 Key Pillars

 

 

PILLAR 1

Ethnobotany


For centuries, humans around the world have been tapping into the power of nature and including the plants native to them in all aspects of life. Inspired by this indigenous wisdom, the Epoch collection is proudly formulated with ethnobotanical ingredient extracts. Created in collaboration with Dr. Paul Cox, an award-winning ethnobotanist and Nu Skin Scientific Advisor, Epoch elevates your personal-care rituals while protecting native plant diversity.

 

Glacial Marine Mud*

Legend has it that Native Americans of the Pacific Northwest tried – and failed – to make pottery from the special glacial marine mud. To their surprise however, they soon noticed that the wet clay made their hands softer and more hydrated.

 

Baobab Body Butter

Africa is the inspiration behind the versatile ethnobotanical ingredient called Baobab Fruit. The humble yet powerful plant has a unique place in African myths, legends, and ways of life.

 

Sole Solution

Crushed Allspice Berry is an ethnobotanical ingredient traditionally used by indigenous people in the rainforests of Central America to bring dull, dry skin on the feet back to life.

Nu Skin Force For Good Foundation


Epoch is all about doing good – for you, the cultures that inspired us, and the planet we all share. Since 1998, for every Epoch product sold, Nu Skin gives $0.25 directly to the Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation, a non-profit organisation that channels Epoch contributions into the betterment of the people and the planet. Since its launch, more than $13 million have helped support hundreds of humanitarian projects worldwide.

 

Yin and Yang Mask

Infused with the scent of Jasmine Sambac, a flower traditionally used in China to promote a sense of inner serenity, this mask is formulated with Porcelain Flower and microencapsulated Charcoal to soften and detoxify the skin.

 

Firewalker

Formulated with Hawaiin Ti leaf and Babassu Seed Oil, the Epoch Firewalker soothes achy, hard-working feet. Historically, Polynesian firewalkers relied on the leaf to cool and soothe their feet after walking across the fiery coals.

 

Ava Puhi Moni Conditioner

Containing the Ava Puhi bulb extract, which has been used by Polynesians for centuries to soften and condition the hair, this conditioner leaves your hair looking smooth and glossy without weighing it down.

Sustainability Efforts


As part of efforts to make all Nu Skin products more sustainable by 2030, the Epoch collection** has taken some significant steps. It's the first brand to introduce Eco-Pac tubes that help save 67 tons*** of plastic each year during production – that equals the weight of 10 elephants! The collection also features packaging made of post-consumer resin**** and material that is FSC-certified.

 

IceDancer

Featuring Eco-Pac tube, the non-sticky, quick-absorbing Epoch IceDancer gel invigorates and instantly refreshes exhausted legs!

 

Baby Hibiscus Hair and Body wash

Available in a 100% PCR bottle, this foamy, tearless wash helps moisturise and maintain a healthy-looking scalp while cleansing the skin and hair.

 

Polishing Bar

This soap-free bar gently cleanses and polishes, revealing smooth, conditioned skin. It comes in a carton made from 100% recycled paper board.
