Epoch by Nu Skin is a 13-piece product collection for body, skin, hair and baby that features Eco-Pac packaging and safe, natural and effective ingredients that draw from time-tested ethnobotanical ingredients from indigenous wisdom from around the world.
Nu Skin worked with Dr. Paul Cox, a leading ethnobotanist and Nu Skin Scientific Advisor, to harness the power of ingredients like the fruit of the African baobab tree, porcelain flower and charcoal, which can be found in products like Epoch Baobab Body Butter and the Yin and Yang Mask.
The newly refreshed line celebrates 25 years of Epoch with "83 percent less carbon emissions and an average of 10 percent less plastic per product." Notably, Nu Skin is the first brand to use the Eco-Pac design, crafted of 100% Bio-pe, a bio-based plastic resin derived from sugarcane.
