NuSkin uses placenta extract and swears it's not human though the FDA doesn't require labelling for that sort of thing. There was a huge scandal when that was discovered in the 80's or 90's. I would check for PP connections to the company, or Haiti, why the fuck not.

Q: They use placenta in their products. I liked that stuff when my mom had it back in the late eighties. I'm not saying this is bad, just a heads up in case you're not down with this type of thing.

A: 'Thank you for contacting Nu Skin Product Support. To address this question, Nu Skin does NOT use human placental extract (HPX) from aborted placental tissue. Nu Skin's source of HPX is derived under stringently controlled conditions from full term human placental tissue. HPX is a phenomenal ingredient which offers a rich source of proteins and mineral salts, which are beneficial to the skin. HPX is used in the HPX Hydrating Gel because it is an excellent moisturizer and emollient. Emollients are ingredients that soften and smooth the skin.'
