Nu Skin, a global leader in premium-quality beauty and wellness products, announced it is the first beauty brand to use sugarcane-based Eco-Pac sustainable packaging. With this refresh, Epoch, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary, is enhancing its commitment to better the environment. The 13-piece collection featuring products for body, skin, hair and baby reduces carbon emissions through new, sustainable Eco-Pac packaging, and features safe, natural and effective ethnobotanical ingredients from indigenous cultures around the world.
Epoch's new, sustainable Eco-Pac packaging also makes its mark not just on the environment, but on the beauty industry as well. Nu Skin is the first brand to use the Eco-Pac design, which is constructed of 100 percent Bio-pe (a bio-based plastic resin derived from sugarcane), using 83 percent less carbon emissions and an average of 10 percent less plastic per product.
The light-weight packaging, which recently won a Spark award for its innovation in sustainability, does not include any fossil-fuel-based ingredients and features a monolayer structure for recycling ease. Each product also features new and noteworthy artwork linking the history of the ingredients to the people and cultures from which the ethnobotanical wisdom originated.
