What is Traceability?
ARTISTRY Traceability provides proof of how our products are made. Our traceable proof of the details that ensure our products are clean and pure, and our formulas are safe and effective, can bring you peace of mind — and Healthy Beauty you can love.
Our scientific process unlocks the best botanical benefits nature has to offer for visibly healthy skin. Each ARTISTRY solution has its own story, revealed by its traceability details.
We document the science behind our formulas, proof of raw ingredient quality, who performs each meticulous step and every test that verifies a product meets our quality standards. You never have to guess whether your skincare is safe and effective because the details are traceable.
ARTISTRY products include Nutrilite-grown botanicals which are traceable at an even deeper level, from seed to skincare solution to you.
We trace our Nutrilite-grown botanical ingredients to the certified organic farm where the plants are sustainably grown. We document who cares for them and how, as well as the relentless measures taken that ensure purity, safety and effectiveness. This level of traceability is proof of beneficial skincare with no compromises — clean and ethically produced.
From ingredient testing to finished product testing, ARTISTRY SKIN NUTRITION products can have more than 400 tests performed to ensure each batch meets our quality standards.
Every ARTISTRY skincare product is made following relentless manufacturing standards and product quality practices similar to those applied to Nutrilite supplements. We control, document and verify processing steps multiple times for accuracy. The paper used in ARTISTRY SKIN NUTRITION cartons is sourced from sustainably managed forests practising responsible forest management.
Traceability is proof of clean skincare. Clean is important, but it takes more than words to trust that a product meets your expectations. With traceability, you get documented proof that everything possible was done to preserve the beauty benefits the label promises.
You can see that every precaution was taken to ensure the ingredients are not diluted or contaminated, and that the product was tested over and over to verify its safety and effectiveness.
Test. Then test again.
Trust comes from traceable proof that your skincare products are made to standards that exceed the beauty industry; that they are consciously created to protect you, the earth and the people involved in making your product; and that they have undergone rigorous safety testing
We follow detailed ingredient and manufacturing standards similar to those applied to Nutrilite supplements. Every batch of ARTISTRY™ products is tested over and over for safety and quality, from the raw ingredients through the product we ship to you. If the product doesn’t pass, it doesn’t get shipped.

*Testing performed on applicable products
Terms like natural beauty products, all natural and organic skincare might mean a product is plant-based or contains organic botanical ingredients, but they don't automatically mean the product is safe and effective.
Even with a “no” list of never-used ingredients, important details are missing about the ingredients that are included. Traceability provides the details that prove your product is safe, pure and effective – that what’s on the label is exactly what’s in the package.
Some of our most important ingredients are traceable at an even deeper level. We call it “seed to skin” traceability, but that simple phrase contains an extraordinary journey. We trace our Nutrilite-grown botanical ingredients starting with the original seed batch. We then follow the seed to the farm where the plants are organically and sustainably grown (each plant has its own birth certificate), documenting who cares for them and how, and relentlessly checking and testing to ensure purity, safety and effectiveness.
There are additional touchpoints at every step along the way, from the harvesting to the facility where the plant is transformed into a potent extract, from delivery to our plant to final packaging and distribution. This level of traceability is proof of beneficial skincare with no compromises – clean and ethically produced.
