Living young is all about
a positive approach to
all things, reaching out for
the best, and embracing
life. It’s a simple philosophy
and it’s empowering. Most
of all, it has to start with you
– and start today if want to
start afresh.
Nu Skin knows all about
taking the positive approach.
Twenty-six years ago, in an
apartment in Provo, Utah,
a brother and sister, both
in their early 20s, were
talking about skincare
products. They knew that
manufacturers put only a few
quality ingredients in their
products.
They felt that there was a
need for quality skincare
products containing only
beneficial ingredients and
nothing harmful. Blake
Roney, the brother, didn’t
know much about skincare
but agreed to help to start a
skincare product company,
They soon found three more
partners, Steve Lund, Sandie
Tillotson and Brooke Roney,
to join the tiny startup.
The power of you
If age is just a number, then living young is a whole
philosophy. If you have not done anything about living
young, it is never too late to change!
02
By insisting that only
beneficical ingredients were
included in its products,
the small company created
a difference that could be
demonstrated. People tried
and liked the products and
asked for more. The orders
kept coming.
Living young. Loving life.
Anti-ageing is more than skin-deep. It’s more than great
skincare products. It takes a positive mindset, the right
attitude and the willingness to keep spiritually young. It
means wellness and health management – critical internal
factors that impact not just the way you feel but the way you
look as you age. That’s from the inside out. From the outside
in, you need all the products which offer vitality and beauty,
and the tools that will help you to live life to the fullest.
Today Nu Skin is an
award-winning, publicly
traded company worth
billions of dollars. It has
a presence in over 48
countries. To date, it has
150 products for skin, hair,
cosmetic, oral care, general
nutritional, sports nutritional,
weight management,
and botanical products.
These products have helped
millions of people to look
younger, feel better and
be healthier. At the same
time, these users have
indirectly helped poorer
sections of society because
of the company’s corporate
responsibility.
The secret of Nu Skin’s
success is simple: Give
consumers the best. This
translates into top quality
products that work,
reasonable pricing and
a system that allows the
consumer to benefit
from savings enjoyed by
the company.
❝
Our success in
building Nu Skin
Enterprises took
off when we
became serious
about building the
business and were
willing to invest our
time into improving
our minds, our
habits and our way
of doing business.

live young
habitually
just three words
to remember.
It’s not just
about looking
young for a day
or even for that
special evening,
but always.
Why look your age when you
can look younger? This is the
mantra of the good-looking
people whom others admire.
It’s not merely a question
of vanity but of how much
you respect yourself. It’s not
a question of changing the
looks Nature gave you by
resorting to plastic surgery.
Rather, it’s making the
most of what you have.
Been neglecting yourself
lately? It is never too late
to start good habits. Here’s
how: Take baby steps, set
yourself realistic goals and
reward yourself each time
you reach a goal. Example:
If you’ve been a couch
potato for the longest time,
start with brisk walking (you
don’t have to jog); do it
three times a week around
your neighbourhood (every
day on a treadmill at a gym
may not be realistic), and
treat yourself to a simple,
inexpensive foot massage
(you don’t have to go to a
top-notch spa for this).

It is never too

❞
speeding up the ageing
process by introducing
more, harmful free radicals
into your system.
So now, we’re clear about
this approach. Now to
formulate a “get-younger”
plan in 10 easy steps:
1. Check your health status,
covering blood pressure,
cholesterol and antioxidant
levels. Once a year, go for
a full medical checkup.
These checks are to ensure
that nothing is holding you
back in your quest to look
and feel young.
2. Get your eyes examined,
also your skin and teeth.
Not happy with the way your
teeth look? Do something
about it; these days,
orthodontists are close to
being miracle workers.
3. Make sure you get enough
nutrients from your daily
diet. With our busy lifestyles,
eating a balanced diet has
become something of a
mission impossible. Avoid
smoking and excessive
drinking. Smoke and alcohol
permeate your every pore,
4. Work out a beauty ritual.
For face: cleanse, tone,
moisturise, nourish; gentle
scrub and mask once a
week. For body: scrub,
moisturise; dry-brush
once every two weeks.
Giving skin
the ‘brush-off’
Besides removing dead
skin, skin brushing also
improves circulation. Buy
a long-handled brush
with natural bristles
(synthetic ones scratch
the skin). Before you
wet your skin, dry-brush
your body. Start with
the soles of your feet,
working upwards
towards your heart.
Use light strokes
across your breast
and circular anticlockwise strokes on
the abdomen. When
done, take a warm
shower, followed
by a cold rinse.
5. Even before you work out
a beauty ritual, find out what
products suit you and really
work. Junk all the stuff you’ve
been using on your face
that you haven’t touched
in more than three months.
Mascaras, lipsticks and
opened jars of cream are
hotbeds for bacteria when
unused for periods at
a stretch.
Measuring
antioxidant
activity
The patented Pharmanex
BioPhotonicTM Scanner is
a non-invasive method
of measuring overall
carotenoid antioxidant
activity. This simply means
that it can measure and
record the antioxidant
activity in your body. The
more antioxidant activity
you have, the more your
body is capable of fighting
harmful free radicals, one
of the biggest culprits
of ageing. Antioxidants,
essentially vitamins,
minerals and enzymes
found in food, counteract
the damaging of tissues,
effectively slowing down
the ageing process. Email
to sgliveyoung@nuskin.
com or pop by our Park
Mall Showcase for a free
antioxidant activity check.
6. Browse through fashion
magazines to find out what
the stylish are wearing now.
You may have been caught
in a time warp. Word of
warning: Look for outfits that
suit your age and lifestyle
but that are more current.
Put aside all the clothes you
have not worn for years and
give them to charity. Talk
to your hairdresser about
changing your hairstyle, or
change your hairdresser just
this once to see what others
can do. Hairdressers do get
blind spots.
10. Practise thankfulness
and be grateful for what you
have. Focus on the positive
instead of the negative.
Think of others, and not just
yourself. You’ll be amazed at
how a positive attitude can
change people’s perception
of you – young and vibrant,
not old and grouchy.
❝
7. Buy some cool sporting
gear and shoes, and sign
up for an exercise class.
Don’t turn up your nose at
the community clubs – they
offer really exciting activities
these days. Best of all,
the courses are inexpensive.
While you’re about it,
explore more “glamorous
options” such as a language
course, gourmet cuisine or
wine tasting.
8. Get a good mirror – one
with a magnifying side. Fix
it where there’s both natural
light and good night lighting.
Look at it every now and
then and smile. See how the
lines between your brows
and across your forehead
disappear? Smiling takes
years off your age.
Get the negativity
out of your life and
replace it with
positive, affirming
kinds of commentary
in your own head.
And as you do that
and talk to other
people who’ve had
that same life’s view,
they will tend to be
attracted to you and
together, you can
do amazing things.

SCIENTIFIC
collaboration
TURN youth ON
With ageing, there are internal and external factors
to contend with. Thankfully, the many progress in
skincare have allowed us to control these factors
to a great extent.
In anti-ageing science,
Nu Skin leads the way.
Its study of Youth Gene
Clusters has resulted in
advanced scientific formulas
and enhanced anti-ageing
products that will redefine
the industry.
Identifying the source
In a recent scientific discovery, Nu Skin, in collaboration with
anti-ageing and genetics experts, has identified key groups or
functional clusters of genes – Youth Gene Clusters – that help
influence how we age. Finding and identifying these functional
groups of genes is the key to addressing ageing at the source.
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.
Nu Skin also has research
agreements with Stanford
University and LifeGen
Technologies, a US-based
genomics company. Its
exclusive partnership with
the founders of LifeGen
Technologies, Dr Richard
Weindruch and Dr Toman
Prolla, has given the
company access to
30-plus years of research
into the genetic basis
of ageing.
Keeping the skin young from within
Developing three critical points of exclusivity with ageLOCTM
• IDENTIFY. Through ageLOC science, Nu Skin is able to
identify functional groups of genes shown to influence how
people age. These groups of genes – Youth Gene Clusters
(YGCs) – are key arSuperMarkers. Everyone has access to the
sequencing of genes, but with 25,000 genes, it is difficult
to understand how they affect ageing. Just as the Rosetta
Stone was instrumental in advancing modern understanding
of hieroglyphic writing, Nu Skin’s breakthrough technology is
instrumental in understanding ageing at a genetic level.
• TARGET. Once the YGCs are identified, Nu Skin has the
ability to target them more effectively. Nu Skin’s scientific
team can investigate the effect of different ingredients and
ingredient blends on these arSuperMarkers.
Researchers at Stanford
have focused on profiling
gene expression during
human development and
ageing, and have also
explored novel modes of
gene control in ageing skin
– from basic science into
human application.
• RESET. Nu Skin is able to incorporate its proprietary ageLOC
science into product development, resulting in innovative
products that support resetting youth gene clusters to
youthful patterns of activity. Resetting YGCs is about balance
– it’s not as simple as switching genes “on”. The ageLOC
science process aims to create an optimal balance of gene
activity within youth gene clusters.
❝
By targeting the ultimate sources of ageing,
we have the advantage of developing truly
game-changing products that have both
preventative and corrective anti-ageing benefits.

spa-cially
for you
A great skincare product, a clever
skincare tool!
The ageLOC™ advantage is that it uses ageLOC™ products
and a device known as the Galvanic Spa System to make a
remarkable difference to your skin. The simple device has both
a negative charge and a positive charge. (A negative charge
is akin to enjoying a surge of energy without using electricity).
It has four interchangeable heads designed for different
purposes and to target different areas of the skin, hair and
body. The palm-size tool has a matching carrying case and
needs just two triple-A batteries.

Revolutionary discovery
Developed by Nu Skin in collaboration with leading scientists
and research partners, ageLOC science is helping to change
the way we age. The product combines many different
ingredients to reveal younger looking skin in eight key ways:
• Promotes youthful skin structure
• Smoothes skin texture
• Evens skin tone
• Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Increases skin radiance
• Reduces the appearance of pores
• Reduces discolouration
• Increases hydration
These premier products work together to reveal younger
looking skin for a more youthful, healthier looking you.
10
• Gentle Cleanse & Tone,
a foaming cleanser with
advanced ingredients that
combine cleansing and
toning in a single step.
• Radiant Day SPF22,
which brightens, hydrates
and fortifies the skin while
helping to shield it from
harmful UVA and UVB rays.
Helps reduce appearance
of fine lines and wrinkles.
• Transforming Night,
to stimulate youthful
cell turnover for smoother,
softer texture. Ultra-mild
ingredients mimic the skin’s
own structure and help its
natural renewal process.
• Future Serum
delivers the maximum
concentration of ageLOC
to target ageing at its
source. This silky serum’s
ingredients reveal younger
looking skin in eight
significant ways (see left).
❝
Step 1: The Pre-Treat
Phase The Pre-Treat gel
has essential nutrients such
as marigold and vanilla
extracts to soothe and
nurture; and sea kelp to
nourish the skin. For Step 1,
a negative charge is used.
As the purifying ingredient
moves into the pores, the
Galvanic Spa absorbs excess
oil and pollutants while
delivering the benefits of
the ingredients. This “feeds”
the skin and ensures that it
stays healthy and stays in
tip-top condition.
Step 2: Treatment Gel with
ageLOC™ The Treatment
Gel has ingredients such
as arginine to help the skin
recover from stress; and
magnesium to promote
skin renewal. For Step 2,
a positive charge is used
to make the skin more
permeable. The positive
charge of the current
draws out impurities.
This slows down free
radical production and
enhances hydration,
leaving the skin soft,
purified and refreshed.
Combine ageLOC™ Transformation Set & ageLOC™ Spa to discover
how the products work synegistically to reveal the secret of youth!

Youthful
at any age
The good habits you practise now
will stay with you for a lifetime.
Teens
Skin: The two most important
products now are cleanser and
toner. If your skin is oily, use
a foamy cleanser. Try: Pure
Cleansing Gel, a soap-free
foaming formula that frees pores
of excess oil. Good skincare
habits will see you through.
Body: Some people still have
baby fat at this stage. Eat
sensibly and you won’t need to
go on diet. Avoid crash diets.
20s
Skin: The collagen and elastin
keeping your skin supple begins
to break down, so start forming
skincare habits. This is also the
best time to target ageing at
its source to prevent signs of
ageing. Stick to a cleansing,
toning and moisturising routine.
You may also want to use a scrub
followed by a mask once a week.
Try: ageLOC™ Transformation
Set and Nu Skin Clay Pack
Deep Cleansing Mask.
❝
Exercise regularly, take the right supplements.
The right supplementation will make up for
the vitamins and minerals that may be lacking
in your diet.
12
❞
Body: Your body is at its
peak – keep it that way with
regular exercise. Indulge in more
exciting sports like roller
blading and wakeboarding. Make
sure you have sufficient intake of
essential vitamins and minerals.
Supplementation can help.
30s
Skin: Sun-induced wrinkles
start to form. Use sunblock
faithfully, and increase your
scrub and mask routine to twice
a week and think of a gentle
night cream. Try: On top of your
daily regime of the ageLOC™
Transformation Set, try the TriPhasic White™ mask to give your
skin’s natural radiance a boost.
Body: Get into a regular
exercise routine that also focuses
on body shaping; get help from
products that enhance bodyshaping. Try: Galvanic Spa
System with the Body Shaping
Gel, which promotes a firmer,
more toned appearance.
Whatever your age
• Protect your skin from the sun. Look for a sunscreen
with minimum SPF 15.
• Practise good skincare. The minimum daily needs
all skin types require are to cleanse; tone; morning
protection; night protection. Advanced needs are to
nourish; treat; refinish; exfoliate; mask; revitalise.
• Nourish your skin by eating the proper foods. Include
lots of fruit and vegetables in your diet.
• Drink plenty of water. It not only clears your skin
but also aids proper elimination of waste. Less waste
in your body means more beautiful skin.
• Care for your hair. The Nu Skin haircare range for hair
covers shampoo, conditioner and hair mask. To see the
whole range, visit www.nuskin.com.sg
• Exercise regularly. Exercise boosts blood circulation,
delivering oxygen and nutrients where you need
them most.
• Get plenty of rest. This gives your skin time to relax
and rejuvenate. Stress leads to an unstable hormonal
system and causes skin problems.
• Don’t smoke: When you smoke, the tiny capillaries
constrict. This impedes the flow of oxygen, resulting
in slower blood flow. Vitamin A and C, which help
to generate the skin and promote healing, are also
affected by slower blood flow.
40s
Skin: Your skin starts to get
dry and dark patches start
to appear. Switch to a mild
scrub, a more hydrating mask.
It’s a good idea to nourish
your skin and treat your skin
for specific problems.
Try: Other than your daily regime
of the ageLOC™ Transformation
Set, add Tru Face™ Line
Corrector with peptides to help
minimise appearance of lines.
Body: You need exercise more
than ever. For nights when you’ve
had excess food and drink, follow
the next couple of days with
meal replacements such as
the ones from Pharmanex.
50s
Skin: How you looked after
your skin when you were
younger begins to show results.
Nourishing needs to be more
targeted for your skin needs.
Don’t neglect your neck and
hands – they reveal your age.
Try: Adding Tru Face™ Essence
Ultra on top of your ageLOC™
Transformation Set can help to
further improve skin’s elastin and
enhance firmness and elasticity.
Body: Jogging is not as good
for you as low-impact sports.
Swimming is ideal and briskwalking is easy and convenient.

Body beautiful
at any age
Health makes a body beautiful – boost your health and
you improve your physical appearance. The earlier you start,
the better… but whatever your age, it’s never too late.
The first step to getting a
beautiful body is learning
to love it. Accept what you
can’t change and what you
can. The good news is that
you can change a lot! Here
are five things you can’t do
a thing about but can work
towards improving.
1
You can’t alter your
height but you can
appear taller with good
posture. Carrying yourself
well will also make you look
more youthful and confident.
You can’t change your
basic shape but you
can improve it by working
with weights and “bodystreamlining” products.
You can never be slim
as those who are born
naturally skinny, but you
can manage your weight
for both health and beauty.
You can’t change the
fact that some people
are predisposed to certain
problems such as lowered
immunity, but you can
boost your health.
You can’t stop your
body from ageing,
but you can take the right
supplements that will slow
down the ageing process.

Managing your weight & Body Fats.
Follow the 3-3-3-3 diet principle – take three servings each
of carbohydrates, protein, vegetables and fruit; the size of
one serving is palm-size (exclude the fingers). Drink at least 1
litre of water a day. Products that will help you manage your
weight include:
• TRA Complex, specially formulated with key ingredients to
control carbohydrate cravings and help you resist the urge to
snack between meals. These ingredients include calcium to
increase your metabolism rate and increase fat burning, and
green tea extracts to reduce fats around the tummy.
• Duolean, a fats and carbohydrate blocker that contains
two special ingredients: NeOpuntia to bind fats from food
and increase body metabolism rate, and Alpha Trim to delay
carbohydrate breakdown into simple sugars; the wheat
content also makes you feel fuller, longer.
• Diene-O-Lean, containing conjugated linoleic acid to reduce
body fat and capsaicin to improve circulation, burns body fats,
increases muscle mass and shapes your body.
• LifePak® helps to increase metabolism and ensure sufficient
nutrition intake during your weight management programme.

The three parts to ageing
Let’s look at what
we can change
Improving body shape:
Consistency is the name
of the game when it comes
to improving your body
shape. But there is one
product that can help you.
Diene-O-Lean burns body
fats, increases muscle mass
and shapes the body.
Managing your weight
and body fats: The safest
approach is a combination
of proper nutrition, exercise,
and weight-regulating
products developed for
this specific purpose. Meal
replacements work but you
must make sure you use
the right type. TrimShake
has protein to increase
metabolism and soluble
fibres that help you feel full
longer and improve bowel
movement. It comes in vanilla
and chocolate flavours.
Boost your health: Building
your immunity is the first
step. Reishimax GLp has
active ingredients like
the red Reishi mushroom
to boost the immune
system. Green tea is a
great antioxidant because
it contains catechins,
which help support cell
function. TeGreen 97 is high
in catechins. Each capsule
provides the catechin
equivalent of seven cups
of green tea but is 99.5 per
cent caffeine-free, making
it one of the most potent
antioxidant supplements on
the market. These products
are in the Pharmanex range.
16
Key groups or functional clusters of genes known as Youth •
Gene Clusters influence the body’s ageing process.
• The body creates non-functional cells, leading to more
rapid deterioration of the body’s functions. So even
though these cells are present, they are useless and, worse,
sometimes interfere with normal cellular processes.
• Cellular damage to the body’s healthy DNA leads to
accelerated cell death. Our old bodies simply cannot
generate cells fast enough to compensate for the loss. This
process is most visible and obvious in our skin – the older we
get, the thinner our skin becomes.
• It involves the cellular down-regulation of our natural
oxidative enzymes, making our antioxidant defences less
efficient with age.
Therefore, we should “down-regulate” the activities of
genes which contributes to ageing and “up-regulate” those
with youthful activity patterns to slow the ageing process.
❝
Take the right supplements:
A busy lifestyle often means
not eating properly. LifePak
ensures sufficient nutrition
intake on ordinary days as
well as during the times you
are on a weight management
programme. This nutritional
supplementation system
delivers all the vitamins,
minerals, trace elements,
antioxidants and phytonutrients you need for
general health. It comes in
sachets for convenience.
Posture: Standing tall makes
us look kilos lighter and years
younger. There’s more. With
proper body alignment, your
body gets less tired. Bad
posture, on the other hand,
leads to neck strain and
lower back pain. Always keep
your head level and in line
with your neck and spine.
The Difference.
Demonstrated.
Before undergoing
any weight
management
programme, ensure
that the results
will be effective,
sustainable and most
importantly safe
with no side effects.

Get enough sleep; it’s the easiest way to look
younger. Stop work one
hour before bedtime.
Use products meant
for anti-ageing.
Nu Skin’s ageLOC™ science
is based on the discovery of
internal sources of ageing
and targets the ultimate
sources of ageing that can
influence how we age.
3
Cut down your stress; repeated stress ages
you. Yoga, meditation or
even staring into space are
great ways to reduce stress.
4
Practise sensible
eating habits. Avoid
eating late at night as this
places an extra burden on
the digestive system. Chew
thoroughly. Keep your meals
light when under stress.
5
Use a body lotion to keep your skin supple.

care, including Perennial
Intense Body Moisturiser.

Prevent weight gain. TRA
is a sensbile combination of
products, nutrition and exercise.
Don’t wait to be
thirsty to drink water.
Often, thirst is mistaken
for hunger when all your
body needs is a tall glass
of water.
8
Build strength with exercise to combat
the loss of stamina, muscle
strength, balance, and
bone density as you age.
9
Stop making excuses
for not exercising.
Body weight is reduced
by 80 per cent in water, so
swimming suits everyone,
old or young, thin or heavy.
10
Take antioxidants.
Drink green tea; taking
supplements is another way.

12. Take supplements to
stimulate the body’s natural
healing processes and for
long-term health benefits.
But don’t expect miracles in
a week; it takes at least one
month before results show.
13
❞
Increase your lung capacity by taking
deep breaths through and
expelling air from your
mouth. More oxygen in the
body means more blood
coursing through your veins
to keep your body healthy
and alert.
14
Don’t neglect
your hair. Nu Skin
scientifically advanced hair
care products begin to
correct and prevent damage
after as little as one week
after regular use.
15. Keep a
positive attitude.
Surrounding yourself
with happy people
will help you to
maintain a positive
mindset on your
outlook and on life.
21
power of touch
Do yourself a world of good with massage.
Massage is thought to be the oldest form of medical therapy
practised on the human body. Here are five of the most
popular ones today.
• Galvanic spa treatment for the face boosts circulation,
which in turn encourages faster skin cell renewal. Gentle
galvanic currents and a massaging action are frequently used
in spa treatments.
• Aromatherapy Massage uses essential oils such
as lavender and tea tree to address specific needs. Lavender

• Hot Stone Massage is when the therapist places
or gently massages heated stones on certain points of
the body. This form of warm massage is good for people
experiencing muscle tension but prefer lighter massage.
• Deep Tissue Massage targets the deeper layers
of muscle. The slower strokes are good for chronically tight or
painful muscles or recovery from injury. Expect to feel a little
sore for one to two days after, but you will feel wonderful later.
