ageLOC® Tru Face® Radiant Day (Australia)

ageLOC Tru Face Radiant Day is a daytime moisturiser that combines UV defence with anti-ageing actives — niacinamide, vitamin C, and the ageLOC blend — in a single product. For Australians dealing with UV index readings regularly above 11 (Bureau of Meteorology data), having anti-ageing ingredients working alongside UV protection means your daytime moisturiser is doing double duty rather than just sitting passively under sunscreen.

What Radiant Day Actually Does

The formula serves two functions simultaneously. First, it provides broad-spectrum UV protection suitable for daily wear. Second, the active ingredients — particularly niacinamide at a concentration aligned with the 2–5% range shown effective in published dermatological studies — work to brighten, firm, and protect skin throughout the day.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) has strong clinical backing: a 2005 study in the British Journal of Dermatology found that 5% topical niacinamide significantly reduced hyperpigmentation and improved skin elasticity over 12 weeks. The vitamin C derivative adds antioxidant defence against the free radicals generated by UV exposure — critical in Australia where cumulative UV damage is among the highest globally.

Key Ingredients

Niacinamide (vitamin B3): Reduces the appearance of pores, evens skin tone, and strengthens the skin barrier. Well-tolerated across skin types including sensitive and acne-prone skin.

Vitamin C derivative: Provides antioxidant protection without the instability issues of pure ascorbic acid. Brightens and helps defend against environmental damage.

ageLOC blend: Nu Skin's proprietary complex targeting gene expression patterns associated with visible ageing.

Hydrating base: Lightweight enough for Australia's warm, humid coastal climates but sufficiently moisturising for drier inland conditions. Non-comedogenic formulation.

How to Use

Apply after cleansing, toning, and serums (Essence Ultra or Future Serum if using). Radiant Day should be the last skincare step before makeup. In Australia's high-UV conditions, we recommend layering a dedicated SPF 50+ sunscreen over the top during peak UV hours (10am–3pm), especially in summer months or at latitude below 30°S.

Who Should Use Radiant Day?

This suits anyone wanting their daytime moisturiser to actively work on ageing signs rather than just hydrate. It's particularly well-suited to the 30–50 age group dealing with early pigmentation, dullness, and the first signs of firmness loss. The lightweight texture works well under makeup — it doesn't pill or create a greasy base layer.

If you have very dry or mature skin, you may find Radiant Day sufficient alone in summer but may want to layer it over a richer serum (like Essence Ultra) during winter months when humidity drops.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Radiant Day replace sunscreen?
In Australia's UV conditions, we recommend using Radiant Day as a base layer with dedicated SPF 50+ sunscreen applied over the top during outdoor exposure. The UV protection in Radiant Day provides a useful baseline for incidental exposure (walking to the car, brief outdoor moments), but for extended outdoor time, layer additional sunscreen.

Can I use Radiant Day with Tru Face serums?
Yes. Apply your serum first (Essence Ultra or Future Serum), allow 60 seconds for absorption, then apply Radiant Day as the final skincare step.

Is it suitable for oily skin?
The lightweight, non-comedogenic formula works well for normal to oily skin. Niacinamide actually helps regulate sebum production, so it may improve oiliness over time rather than exacerbating it.

How long does one tube last?
With once-daily morning application, the 50ml tube typically lasts 8–10 weeks.

Can I use it at night too?
You can, but the UV-protective components are wasted at night. For evening use, a dedicated night cream like Tru Face Uplifting Rich Cream would be more effective.
