New to Nu Skin? Start Here.
With hundreds of products across skincare, devices, supplements and hair care, getting started with Nu Skin can feel overwhelming. This guide picks five that are easy to start with — described in Nu Skin's own words, with our own view on who each one actually suits.
A word on how we have written it: where a claim appears in quotation marks, it is Nu Skin's, verbatim. Where you see no claim, it is because Nu Skin does not print one, and we are not going to write one on their behalf.
1. AP 24® Whitening Fluoride Toothpaste
The cheapest way to find out whether you like Nu Skin's products at all, because it replaces something you already buy.
Nu Skin's wording: "Lightens teeth without peroxide while helping to prevent cavities." The printed bullets are "Diminishes the appearance of surface stains", "Helps lighten without harsh chemicals" and "Helps protect teeth and prevent cavities".
Best for: coffee, tea and red wine staining. There is also a fluoride-free version if you prefer, though you lose the cavity claim with it.
2. ageLOC® LumiSpa iO
The big one, and the one to think hardest about before buying.
Nu Skin's wording: "Two minutes, twice a day is all it takes for award-winning ageLOC® LumiSpa® iO to deliver a smoother complexion, seven clinically proven skin benefits, and smart IoT technology that helps you personalize your routine." Also printed: "Instantly softer and smoother skin after one use."
Best for: someone who will use it morning and night and will buy the matched treatment cleansers. Not for you if either of those sounds unlikely — that is the honest answer, and it saves you a few hundred dollars.
3. LifePak® Nano
The supplement to start with, because it covers the most ground.
Nu Skin's wording: "LifePak Nano is a comprehensive nutritional anti-aging program formulated with advanced levels of key nutrients and nanotechnology to help nourish and protect cells, tissues, and organs throughout the body." Printed bullets include "Protects cell health with an antioxidant defense network" and "Promotes healthy immune function."
Best for: anyone currently taking nothing. If you are eyeing the more targeted Pharmanex supplements, this is the one to own first.
4. Epoch® Ava Puhi Moni® Shampoo & Light Conditioner
Nu Skin's wording: "Epoch Ava Puhi Moni Shampoo and Light Conditioner is a sulfate-free, color-safe 2-in-1 formula that cleanses and conditions hair in one simple step, leaving it clean, lustrous, and silky soft." Printed bullets include "Suitable for colored and/or chemically treated hair", "Leaves hair more manageable, without heavy build-up or residue" and "Formulated without sulfates, parabens, or phthalates."
Best for: coloured hair, and anyone who wants to cut a step out of the shower. Low-risk, low-cost, and the bottle lasts.
5. Nutricentials® HydraClean Creamy Cleansing Lotion
Nu Skin's wording: "Cleanse, hydrate, and protect your skin with Nutricentials HydraClean. This luxurious, creamy, soap-free cleanser is a gentle multitasker." It "cleanses away dirt, excess oil, and makeup—all while protecting your skin's natural moisture barrier."
Best for: dry or tight-feeling skin, and anyone building a basic routine before committing to a device.
The Order We Would Actually Buy In
- Toothpaste first — it costs almost nothing extra because it replaces something you buy anyway.
- Then a cleanser or shampoo — again, replacing rather than adding.
- Then the multivitamin, if supplements interest you at all.
- The device last, once you know the routine habit is real.
Start with one or two products, live with them for a month, and expand only if you are actually pleased. Most of our long-standing customers started with one thing rather than a kit — and the people who buy a full routine on day one are the people most likely to return half of it.
If It Does Not Suit You
Every order is covered by NuBodyRx's own 90-day money-back guarantee, opened and used, with no restocking fee. That is three times the 30 days Nu Skin's published US refund policy allows, and it is deliberately long enough that a first purchase is not a gamble.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a consultant or a membership?
No. We are an Independent Nu Skin Brand Affiliate and hold the account so you do not need one. No sign-up, no monthly order. How that works.
Which single product should a complete beginner buy?
The toothpaste. It is the lowest-risk way to find out whether the brand is for you, and it replaces something already on your shopping list.
How long before I see anything?
It depends entirely on the product, and most of the range carries no published timeline. Where Nu Skin does print one we quote it; where it does not, we leave the question open rather than invent an answer.
