ageLOC® Body Polish (NZ)

ageLOC® Body Polish (NZ$63.00) delivers triple-action exfoliation through physical particles, chemical exfoliants, and enzymatic breakdown in a single shower step. For New Zealanders whose body skin takes a beating from Canterbury's nor'wester winds, Wellington's constant wind chill, and Queenstown's intense alpine UV, this comprehensive exfoliator removes accumulated dead cells and weather damage more thoroughly than single-mechanism scrubs. Essential preparation before applying body treatments or using the WellSpa iO device for enhanced absorption and conductivity. Ships from Nu Skin New Zealand with no membership requirements.

Who It's For

Best suited for: Anyone with rough, dry, or dull body skin from outdoor exposure, regular trampers needing post-trail skin recovery, those preparing skin for body treatments or device use, and people wanting comprehensive exfoliation in one step.

Less suited for: Sensitive skin that reacts to physical scrubs, recently sunburned or irritated skin, those preferring gentle single-action exfoliants, and anyone wanting daily use products (this is 2-3 times weekly maximum).

Pairs well with: ageLOC Body Activating Gel for enhanced absorption, ageLOC WellSpa iO for optimal device conductivity, and ageLOC Dermatic Effects for treatment penetration.

What Makes ageLOC Body Polish Different

Most body scrubs rely on physical exfoliation alone — granules that buff the surface. Body Polish uses three mechanisms simultaneously: physical particles for surface buffing, mild chemical exfoliants to dissolve dead cell bonds, and enzymes to break down protein debris. The triple action delivers significantly smoother results than any single-mechanism scrub.

The physical exfoliants work immediately on contact, while the chemical and enzymatic components continue working for several minutes after application. This extended action means more thorough dead cell removal in a single use compared to traditional scrubs that only work during the scrubbing motion. The result is noticeably smoother, softer skin that's optimally prepared for treatment product absorption.

How It Compares

Does Body Polish ship within New Zealand?

Yes, all orders ship from the official Nu Skin New Zealand warehouse. Standard delivery takes 2-5 business days across main centres (Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch). Rural delivery (RD) addresses may require additional time. Shipping costs NZ$4.99, free on orders over NZ$99. No membership or registration required to purchase.

Can I use Body Polish before tramping or outdoor activities?

Use Body Polish after outdoor activities, not before. The exfoliation removes the protective dead cell layer, making freshly exfoliated skin more sensitive to UV and wind exposure. Best used in evening showers after your tramping day, then apply treatment products to the prepared skin overnight.

How does triple-action exfoliation work differently than regular scrubs?

Regular scrubs only work through physical friction during the scrubbing motion. Body Polish starts with physical particles but adds chemical exfoliants that dissolve dead cell adhesion and enzymes that break down protein debris. These chemical and enzymatic actions continue working for several minutes after you stop scrubbing, achieving deeper exfoliation than friction alone.

Is Body Polish suitable for Wellington's windy climate?

Excellent for Wellington conditions. The constant wind strips moisture and creates rough, dry patches on body skin. Body Polish removes this accumulated damage more thoroughly than single-action scrubs, then follow with a rich moisturiser or body treatment for optimal wind protection. Use 2-3 times weekly, not daily, as over-exfoliation can worsen wind sensitivity.

Can I use it with other Nu Skin body products?

Body Polish is specifically designed as the first step in the ageLOC body protocol. Use before Body Activating Gel, Body Serum, or Dermatic Effects for enhanced absorption. Also optimises WellSpa iO device conductivity when used before treatments.

What's the difference between this and Epoch Glacial Marine Mud?

Different mechanisms and purposes. Body Polish is active exfoliation — physical, chemical, and enzymatic removal of dead cells used 2-3 times weekly in the shower. Glacial Marine Mud is a clay mask that draws out impurities through adsorption, used weekly as a treatment that you leave on then rinse. They're complementary, not alternatives.

Is it regulated by Medsafe in New Zealand?

Body Polish is a cosmetic product regulated under the Cosmetic Products Group Standard rather than Medsafe therapeutic goods regulations. It's formulated to international cosmetic safety standards and available for retail purchase without prescription or therapeutic claims.

Can I find Body Polish at Life Pharmacy or Chemist Warehouse NZ?

Nu Skin products are not available through retail pharmacies in New Zealand. Purchase directly from nubestskin.com/nz or through Independent Brand Affiliates. This ensures product authenticity and access to the complete Nu Skin range with proper usage guidance.
