The Nutricentials Difference
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 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 leave-on products like the five creams, our powerful serum and the three latest additions to the range; Complexion Protection, Eye Love Bright Eyes, and Pillow Glow, 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. Although the science behind the products is complex, this document helps you to address the most frequently asked questions simply and clearly.
Nutricentials ProductsA force of nature
It’s smart. It’s powerful. It’s awe-inspiring. Nature’s long been the answer to life’s many puzzles.
For Nutricentials, we turned to nature and identified those bioadaptive botanical extracts that have the ability to help your skin to fight back against all odds. These extracts are derived from plants that thrive in extreme conditions such as deserts, harsh soils, and extremely cold environments. If you think about it, these plants play by their own rules – and help your skin do exactly the same. The five creams, the first-of-its-kind Celltrex Always Right serum, and three latest additions Complexion Protection, Eye Love Bright Eyes, and Pillow Glow help your skin to increase its ability to adapt to its own changing environment and the many challenges it faces, like pollution, changes in humidity, and even the stress of a hectic lifestyle. Welcome to the wonders of bioadaptive skincare.
An advanced approach to bio-availability
Great skincare doesn’t just happen.
We first start by carefully choosing our ingredients and ensuring that they are sufficiently bio-available to deliver the benefits we want your skin to get. Put simply, we make sure that they work optimally.
To do this, our blend of bioadaptive botanicals is processed with natural enzymes at skin temperature. This breaks down the extracts, replicating the work that the skin would need to do to benefit from the ingredients. The blend is then extensively purified and filtered to preserve the most beneficial parts, the phytoactives in a bioavailable form.
The result of this sophisticated process is a higher bio-availability, meaning the extracts are better assimilated by the skin, increasing the efficacy of the products as a whole.
Made for you, not just for your skin type
With the combination of its unique science and bioadaptive botanicals, Nutricentials helps your skin increase its ability to adapt to its unique environment.
Where does that leave skin types, you ask? In the past! You get to pick the product that suits your preference, the texture that tickles your fancy, and the functionality that fits your needs. Your skin type doesn’t have to dictate whether you go for a cream, gel cream, or lotion. But that’s not it – in addition, all our leave-on products are non-comedogenic, meaning they won’t block your pores, so even those with oilier skin can enjoy richer textures without hesitation.
Create Your Own RoutineThe Science behind our HydraFlex Blend
The environment around us is constantly changing, and with it change our skin’s hydration needs too.
That’s where our HydraFlex Blend, found in Celltrex Always Right Recovery Fluid, comes in! Known as an ‘amphiphile’ – it means that the blend contains both water and oil-loving components. The water-loving portion draws water to the skin from the environment, while the oil-loving part helps avoid water loss. Hot, cold, humid, or dry – the HydraFlex Blend automatically adapts to whatever environment you’re in, delivering just the right amount of hydration to your skin every time.
The Science behind our BlueLight Technology
Exposure to blue light has been linked to visible signs of skin ageing like lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.
We’re constantly exposed to blue light – both outdoors and indoors. Unsurprisingly, that doesn’t do a whole lot of good to our skin. Moreover, blue light dives deeper into the skin than UV rays. This is how Nutricentials can help you combat the negative effects of excessive exposure:
Day Dream Protective Lotion SPF 30, Day Dream Protective Cream SPF 30 and Complexion Protection with SPF 50 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.
Eye Love Bright Eyes, improves the look of dull, uneven, stressed, and tired skin caused by daily stressors, including blue light exposure.
Pillow Glow, helps protect the skin from the oxidative stress caused by blue light exposure encountered throughout the day.
Bioadaptive Skincare
If something is bioadaptive, it is able to adapt to changing conditions in its environment. In this case, all of our leave-on products – the five creams, our serum and our three latest additions to the range – help your skin do exactly that.
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.
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
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. It cannot be considered vegan as one of the products, Celltrex Always Right, contains ‘Polyglyceryl-3 Beeswax’.
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.
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.
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
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!
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.
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.
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.
Our two daily moisturisers Day Dream Protective Lotion and Day Dream Protective Cream with SPF 30 and our daily mineral sunscreen Complexion Protection with SPF 50 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. Eye Love Bright Eyes, improves the look of dull, uneven, stressed, and tired skin caused by daily stressors, including blue light exposure, and the new leave-on sleeping mask, Pillow Glow, delivers both immediate and long-lasting overnight hydration, helping protect the skin from the oxidative stress caused by blue light exposure encountered throughout the day.
