Tru Face Peptide Retinol + ageLOC Future Serum Bundle (CA)

Two Evening Powerhouses, One Streamlined Routine

It's February in Calgary. The Chinook that blew through last week swung temperatures 18°C in under six hours, and your skin has been paying the price ever since — tight, dull, and showing every line the dry prairie air has etched in. You've heard that retinol is the gold standard for evening skin renewal, but you've also heard that pairing it poorly with other actives can undo everything. The Tru Face Peptide Retinol + ageLOC® Tru Face® Future Serum Bundle removes the guesswork: two complementary evening treatments — each targeting ageing from a different biological angle — formulated to layer together, priced at CA$195 (a CA$29 saving versus purchasing each product separately at CA$78 + CA$146 = CA$224).

Who This Bundle Is For

Best Suited For

• Adults looking to consolidate their evening anti-ageing routine into two clinically-focused steps
• Those concerned with multiple signs of ageing — fine lines, uneven tone, loss of firmness — who want both cell-turnover support and broad-spectrum gene expression targeting
• Skin going through seasonal stress: Prairie wind swings, Toronto forced-air heating all winter, or Vancouver's months-long grey-sky vitamin D drought that leaves skin looking flat and depleted
• Experienced skincare users ready to graduate from a single-serum evening routine
• Anyone new to retinol who wants the flexibility to ease in gradually (every other night) while still getting nightly serum benefits from the Future Serum

Less Suited For

• Those who are pregnant or nursing — retinol is not recommended during pregnancy
• Individuals with highly reactive or sensitised skin who have not yet established a basic routine
• Anyone seeking a daytime treatment only — both products are designed for evening use, with morning SPF essential when retinol is in the routine

Pairs Well With

• A gentle morning cleanser and broad-spectrum SPF — non-negotiable when using retinol
• ageLOC LumiSpa iO + Cleanser (Sensitive) or ageLOC LumiSpa iO + Cleanser (Dry) to prep skin before applying these actives
• ageLOC® Tru Face® Radiant Day as a daytime complement within the same Tru Face system
• ageLOC® Tru Face® Uplifting Rich Cream layered after the Retinol Complex for added moisture-sealing on especially dry winter nights

What Makes This Bundle Different

Tru Face® Peptide Retinol Complex — Cell Turnover from the Ground Up

Retinol is one of the most extensively studied topical ingredients in dermatology, with decades of peer-reviewed evidence linking it to increased cell turnover, collagen stimulation, and reduction of fine lines. The Tru Face Peptide Retinol Complex combines encapsulated retinol — a delivery format designed to slow release and reduce the surface irritation commonly associated with standard retinol formulations — with targeted peptides and the proprietary ageLOC complex. The encapsulation approach is particularly relevant for Canadian skin routines: forced-air heating from October through April chronically dehydrates the skin barrier, making it more reactive to potent actives; an encapsulated retinol formulation is better positioned to work alongside that compromised barrier rather than against it.

A pea-sized amount applied after the Future Serum is all that is needed. For first-time retinol users, starting every other night while the Future Serum runs nightly allows the skin to calibrate before daily application.

ageLOC® Tru Face® Future Serum — Broad-Spectrum Gene Expression Targeting

Where the Retinol Complex works at the level of cell renewal, the ageLOC Tru Face Future Serum operates at a different tier: Nu Skin's proprietary ageLOC technology, designed to target gene expression patterns associated with the ageing process. Rather than addressing a single visible sign, the Future Serum is formulated for broad-spectrum anti-ageing — approaching skin ageing as a multi-dimensional process rather than a surface-level one. Two to three pumps applied directly to cleansed skin before the Retinol Complex creates the functional foundation for the retinol to build upon.

Layering Logic: Why the Sequence Matters

The application order — Future Serum first, Retinol Complex second — is not arbitrary. The serum's lighter, broader-action formula penetrates into cleansed skin first; the Retinol Complex then delivers its encapsulated actives on top, in the outermost layers where retinol does its most visible work. This sequence respects both formulations' intended mechanisms rather than competing with them.

How It Compares

The Canadian premium skincare market offers several evening anti-ageing options. The table below compares formulation approach — not pricing conclusions.

How to Use

Evening routine only.

1. Cleanse thoroughly.
2. Apply ageLOC Tru Face Future Serum — 2–3 pumps across the face and neck. Allow to absorb.
3. Apply Tru Face Peptide Retinol Complex — a pea-sized amount, pressing gently into skin over the serum.
4. Follow with a moisturiser if desired.
5. The following morning, always apply a broad-spectrum SPF — retinol increases photosensitivity.

If you are new to retinol: Begin with the Retinol Complex every other evening for 2–4 weeks while using the Future Serum nightly. Gradually increase to nightly application as your skin adapts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does shipping take to my part of Canada?

Orders ship from the official Nu Skin Canada warehouse. Standard delivery is typically 3–7 business days across Canada. Remote and Northern areas, including communities in Nunavut, the NWT, and northern British Columbia, may take additional time. Shipping is CA$2.99, with free shipping on orders over CA$79.

How much do I save with the bundle versus buying each product separately?

The bundle is priced at CA$195. Purchasing the Tru Face Peptide Retinol Complex (CA$78) and ageLOC Tru Face Future Serum (CA$146) individually totals CA$224 — so the bundle represents a CA$29 saving.

Is there a refill option to reduce cost on repeat purchases?

Yes. Both individual products have refill formats available. The Tru Face Peptide Retinol + ageLOC Future Serum Refill Bundle is available at CA$195 and the Original Bundle at CA$209, giving you options based on what you already have at home.

Can I use this bundle if I've never used retinol before?

Yes — the encapsulated retinol format in the Peptide Retinol Complex is designed to minimise the irritation associated with standard retinol formulations, making it more accessible for first-time users. Starting with every-other-night application while using the Future Serum nightly is the recommended approach for easing in. If redness or flaking occurs, reduce frequency further until skin adjusts.

Is retinol safe to use during pregnancy?

Retinol-based products are not recommended during pregnancy or nursing. If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, consult your healthcare provider before using this bundle or any retinol product. This applies regardless of retinol delivery format.

Do I still need a moisturiser if I use both products?

Both products are treatment actives rather than occlusive moisturisers. During Canadian winter — especially in dryer climates like Calgary, Edmonton, and Winnipeg where indoor heating runs for six-plus months — layering a moisturiser or rich cream after the Retinol Complex is strongly advisable to support the skin barrier overnight. Consider the ageLOC® Tru Face® Uplifting Rich Cream as a final step.

Is sunscreen really necessary the morning after using this bundle?

Yes — this is non-negotiable when retinol is in your routine. Retinol accelerates cell turnover, leaving newer skin cells at the surface that are more vulnerable to UV damage. Canadian winter sun — including significant UV reflection off snow — can cause damage even on overcast days. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF every morning, year-round.
