By choosing this program, you save time and effort while taking a significant step in your personal wellness journey toward healthy-looking skin.

The Herbalife SKIN® Basic Program delivers a wide array of benefits, rooted in the carefully chosen active ingredients within each product. Here are over 20 ways the ingredients in this set work to improve the health and appearance of your normal to oily skin:

• Deep Pore Cleansing and Impurity Removal (Polishing Citrus Cleanser): The cleanser utilizes Decyl Glucoside and Cocamidopropyl Betaine, which are gentle, apple-derived cleansing agents, to effectively lift and wash away dirt, excess oil, and impurities from the skin's surface and within the pores. This deep cleaning action is crucial for oily skin types as it prevents the buildup of debris that can lead to blemishes and blackheads, leaving your skin feeling clean and refreshed without the harsh, drying effects of aggressive detergents.
• Gentle Physical Exfoliation (Polishing Citrus Cleanser): The inclusion of Jojoba Esters, which are gentle, rounded polishing beads, provides a non-irritating physical scrub that buffs away dead skin cells and surface impurities. Unlike harsh scrubs with irregular edges, these smooth spheres help to effectively polish the skin, immediately revealing a smoother and more revitalized complexion without causing micro-tears, which is a key step in keeping normal to oily skin smooth and clear.
• Chemical Exfoliation for Skin Renewal (Polishing Citrus Cleanser): This formula contains a blend of gentle alpha and beta hydroxy acids: Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, and Lactic Acid. Salicylic Acid works within the pore lining to dissolve excess sebum and unclog pores, making it excellent for oily, acne-prone skin. Glycolic and Lactic Acids help to loosen the bonds between dead skin cells on the surface, promoting a faster cell turnover for a brighter, more even-toned appearance and a noticeable reduction in skin roughness.
• Oil and Sebum Reduction (Polishing Citrus Cleanser): The cleanser is clinically tested to show a significant reduction in the skin's sebum after just one use. This powerful benefit is largely due to the combination of effective surfactants and the pore-clearing action of Salicylic Acid, which help to instantly remove excess surface oil. This immediate oil-reducing capability is essential for managing the characteristic shine and greasy feel of oily skin throughout the day.
• Pore Appearance Improvement (Polishing Citrus Cleanser & Energizing Herbal Toner): By effectively removing the blockages of oil and dead skin cells in the cleanser, and then using the gentle tightening action of Potassium Alum in the toner, the overall appearance of enlarged pores is improved. The toner helps to firm the skin surface, making pores look less noticeable and promoting a smoother, more refined skin texture.
• Overall Skin Hydration and Comfort (All Products): All four products are infused with Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (Aloe Vera), a key ingredient known for its high water content and ability to deeply penetrate the skin to provide intense, calming moisture. This ensures that even as the cleanser controls oil, and the toner prepares the skin, the skin barrier remains supported and hydrated, preventing the tightness and dryness that can often be a side effect of products for oily skin.
• Skin Barrier Strengthening and Repair (Niacinamide - All Products): Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) is a central, multi-tasking ingredient found in every product. It works to improve the skin's natural barrier function by increasing the production of ceramides. A stronger barrier means the skin is better protected against environmental stressors and less prone to moisture loss, which is vital for maintaining a balanced, healthy look in normal to oily skin.
• Antioxidant Protection Against Environmental Damage (Vitamins C & E - All Products): The set is rich in antioxidant Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Glucoside) and Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate). These powerful vitamins work together to neutralise free radicals caused by daily environmental exposure, such as pollution and sun damage, helping to protect skin cells from oxidative stress and supporting long-term skin health and a more youthful appearance.
• Skin Brightening and Even Tone (Vitamin C - All Products): Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Glucoside) contributes to a brighter complexion by helping to visibly reduce the look of dullness and discoloration. It is known to help improve overall skin clarity and evenness, counteracting the tired or flat appearance often associated with skin that is prone to excess oil.
• Soothing and Calming Irritated Skin (Aloe Vera and Rosemary - Toner): The Energizing Herbal Toner contains a soothing blend of Aloe Vera Juice, Witch-hazel (Hamamelis Virginiana Water), and Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract (Rosemary). These botanicals provide a gentle, calming effect that helps reduce the feeling of irritation and redness that can sometimes accompany breakouts or daily cleansing, leaving the skin feeling comfortable and balanced.
• Refining and Conditioning the Skin (Toner): The Energizing Herbal Toner is an alcohol-free formula infused with a botanical blend designed to gently condition the skin. By removing the last traces of impurities after cleansing, it helps to refine the skin’s surface texture, making it feel fresh and clean without the stinging or drying effects often associated with traditional toners.

• Preparation for Better Product Absorption (Toner): Using the Energizing Herbal Toner as a daily step helps to prepare the skin. By hydrating and balancing the skin's surface, it creates an optimal foundation, allowing subsequent products like the serum (if used) and moisturizers to be better received and absorbed for maximum results and benefit.
• Boosting Skin's Natural Radiance (Daily Glow Moisturizer): The Daily Glow Moisturizer is an all-purpose hydrating lotion with illuminating properties, formulated with a blend of beneficial seed oils and botanical extracts. This combination instantly gives the face a healthy glow and a radiant look, even without makeup, by smoothing the surface and reflecting light more evenly.
• Double-Digit, Long-Term Moisture Retention (Daily Glow & Night Cream): Both the Daily Glow Moisturizer and Replenishing Night Cream are clinically shown to double the skin's moisture for eight hours. This exceptional, long-lasting hydration is achieved through a rich mix of humectants and natural oils, ensuring the skin remains supple, elastic, and moisturised throughout the day or night.
• Softening and Smoothing Skin Texture (Daily Glow Moisturizer): Key ingredients like Sunflower Seed Oil, Macadamia Nut Oil, Olive Oil, and Sesame Seed Oil in the Daily Glow Moisturizer help to deeply smooth and soften the skin’s surface. This luxurious cream instantly provides a soft, silky feel, improving skin roughness to make it look and feel healthier in just seven days.
• Nourishing and Restoring Overnight (Replenishing Night Cream): The Replenishing Night Cream contains a potent blend of deeply nourishing botanical oils, including Sunflower Seed Oil, Macadamia Seed Oil, Olive Fruit Oil, and Sesame Seed Oil. Applied before sleep, this rich yet non-greasy cream supports the skin’s natural night-time recuperation process, helping to restore essential lipids and moisture lost during the day.
• Reducing the Appearance of Fine Lines and Wrinkles (Night Cream): With at least 21 days of use, the Replenishing Night Cream is clinically shown to help minimise the visible appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This anti-aging effect is supported by the deeply hydrating and skin-strengthening properties of ingredients like Niacinamide and the blend of rich oils that plump the skin and improve its structural integrity over time.
• Improving Skin Firmness and Elasticity (Night Cream): Consistent use of the Replenishing Night Cream for at least 21 days helps to improve the feeling of the skin's firmness and elasticity. The combination of antioxidant vitamins and nourishing oils supports the overall health and resilience of the skin’s structure, contributing to a more toned and youthful feel upon waking.
• Enhancing Overall Complexion and Luminosity (Night Cream): The rich formula of the Replenishing Night Cream provides a noticeable improvement of overall skin complexion and luminosity in just one week. The continuous, long-term nourishment delivered by the various seed oils and vitamins helps to counteract dullness, leading to a healthier-looking, more radiant appearance.
• Tackling Breakouts and Reducing Redness (Salicylic Acid and Niacinamide): The Polishing Citrus Cleanser with Salicylic Acid is crucial for treating and preventing blemishes by dissolving oil and clearing pore blockages. Meanwhile, Niacinamide in all products helps to visibly reduce redness and soothe inflammation associated with acne, promoting a clearer and less reactive complexion.
• Invigorating and Refreshing Scent (Cleanser and Toner): The Polishing Citrus Cleanser is delicately scented with refreshing hints of juicy oranges and zesty grapefruit (from Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Oil and Citrus Grandis Peel Oil), and the Energizing Herbal Toner has an uplifting mandarin citrus scent. These natural essential oil aromas provide an invigorating, exhilarating sensory experience that helps to refresh and energize your mood as part of your daily routine.
• Providing Instant Softness and Smoothness (Daily Glow Moisturizer): Ingredients like Spilanthes Acmella Flower Extract and the blend of natural seed oils in the Daily Glow Moisturizer work quickly to smooth and soften the skin. This effect is clinically tested to show that skin looks softer and smoother in just seven days, making the skin feel luxurious and primed instantly after application.

Using the Herbalife SKIN® Basic Program is a straightforward process, designed for both morning and evening use to ensure your skin is consistently cared for. In the morning and evening, begin by gently massaging the Polishing Citrus Cleanser onto damp skin in circular motions. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat your skin dry. Next, apply the Energizing Herbal Toner—you can spritz it lightly over your face or apply it with a cotton ball for a deeper clean. In the morning, complete your routine by applying the Daily Glow Moisturizer to your face and neck. In the evening, replace the Daily Glow Moisturizer with the Replenishing Night Cream to nourish your skin while you sleep. For best results, always follow the specific instructions on each product included in the set.

The products in the Herbalife SKIN® Basic Program are formulated with skin health in mind. They are dermatologist-tested and notably contain no added parabens or sulphates in the cleansers, which are common ingredients some people try to avoid.

However, like any cosmetic product containing potent ingredients, a small risk of skin reaction is always present. The Polishing Citrus Cleanser contains exfoliants like Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, and Lactic Acid, which, while beneficial for oil control and clearing pores, may cause slight dryness, redness, or mild peeling, especially for those new to chemical exfoliants. 

he cleanser and toner also contain citrus oils (Orange and Grapefruit), which can sometimes lead to irritation or sensitivity, particularly in very sensitive skin or if you have an allergy to essential oils. The Energizing Herbal Toner includes ingredients like fragrance (parfum), Limonene, and Linalool, which are known to cause allergic contact dermatitis in some individuals.

It is always wise to perform a patch test on a small area of skin before using the products on your entire face to ensure compatibility and to stop use immediately if irritation occurs.
