BODY CARE 101

8 9

There are over 3 million skin cells on every square centimetre of your body—billions and billions of cells in all, each one vital to your body's health and well-being.

Skin is responsible for holding good things, like water and nutrients, inside your body—and for keeping bad things out. That includes germs and other environmental stressors and impurities. Thankfully, healthy, cared-for skin is remarkably good at what it does!

Skin is a fairly complex organ, with several layers and functions. Skin contains blood vessels, nerves, sebum (oil) and sweat glands, pores, and hair follicles.

Skin is not the same all over your body.

• Face: You may already know that your facial skin is thinner and more delicate than your body skin—especially around your eyes. For advanced care for your face, we recommend ARTISTRY® skincare.

• Elbows and Heels: You can probably tell that skin on your elbows and heels is especially thick.

• Hands: Skin on your hands¬—thin on the back, thicker on the palm side—is especially exposed to daily life, from hard use to frequent washing, handshakes, nicks and scrapes, household cleansing products, and more.

• Odour Zones: Some skin (we're looking at you, feet and underarms) has "special" qualities—including the number and type of sweat glands—that naturally lead to unpleasant odours.

Here are some of the most common challenges the skin on your body faces. To minimise these effects and keep your skin in great shape, it's essential to enjoy a simple daily G&H body care routine. Cleansing and moisturising are key—in the morning and all day long—along with deodorant.

Dryness and DiscomfortOne of the most common problems for body skin is dehydration. Dry skin feels tight, taut, and uncomfortable. It may be itchy or feel irritated.

KEY CAUSES OF DRYNESS• Internal factors like not drinking enough water• External factors like heat and cold, wind, or dry air• Natural factors like genetics and ageing

TURN IT AROUND

Moisturise your body skin regularly to feel comfortable, smooth, and soft all over. Use a G&H body milk or lotion after bathing or showering. Apply Nourish+ Hand Cream throughout the day as desired. And use soap that won't strip away moisture as you clean—G&H collections include several options.

Aging and a Healthy-Looking AppearanceMany customers, especially women, regularly use facial skincare to improve their youthful appearance. But we may neglect our body skin—especially on the hands, neck, and chest area—which can have an effect on how young we look to the rest of the world.

Poorly hydrated body skin looks dull and lacklustre. In addition to appearing red, patchy or crepey, it can feel rough and may be flaky.

Nutrients and other nourishing ingredients are as vital for body skin as they are for facial skin.

TURN IT AROUND

Remember: your skincare shouldn't stop at your chin. Be sure to create a "skincare routine" that includes all of your skin—head to toe. G&H formulas include effective, lasting moisturisers plus other good-for-your-skin ingredients.

Did you know your skin is your body's biggest organ? That's one reason it deserves to be treated with care. From your hard-working hands to arms, legs, and more, here are a few facts you should know.

BODY SKIN CHALLENGES

G&H™ BODY CARE BODY CARE 101 G&H™ BODY CARE BODY CARE 101

10 11

Hygiene and OdourYour mother was right: washing your skin (even behind your ears) is important. No one likes to think about it, but skin is naturally home to a range of micro-organisms. And while some are beneficial to skin and health, others—like germs and odour-producing bacteria—are not. Washing with the right soap helps, but soap that's too strong in the wrong way can actually damage skin and worsen dryness.

Germs: We all know germs from other people and from food can easily be spread by hand-to-hand contact. Proper hand washing with soap and water is a proven way to minimise the spread—and the same goes for other areas as well.

Odour: A key function of skin is to help regulate body temperature by producing sweat. And while sweat itself doesn't smell, natural odour-emitting bacteria can feed on it and multiply rapidly. The result? Body odour. Under the arms, this is usually caused by a specific type of sweat gland and the bacteria that flourish there. And when we enclose our feet and toes in shoes, the sweat can't evaporate, creating the perfect environment for bacteria and odour there. Proper cleaning and care can create a better balance and reduce odour.

Barrier Busters: Much of skin's ability to stay moist and provide protection lies in its moisture barrier, the outermost layer of skin. Yet this thin layer of oils (known as lipids) and proteins is easily weakened. Simply soaking skin in water can affect it, and some soaps and cleansers are worse—actively stripping away the fragile lipids. So whether it's your face, body or hands, it's important to use a cleanser that removes impurities without weakening skin's moisture barrier.

TURN IT AROUNDUse a good soap or cleanser all over your body, to minimise germs, protect skin, and reduce odour. All G&H bar soaps and cleansers remove impurities without stripping. And the Protect+ Deodorant & Anti-Perspirant Roll-On provides 48-hour odour and wetness protection.

G&H™ BRAND OVERVIEW

14 15

In creating these modern G&H body care collections, we began with the best of our history, taking inspiration from classic favourites, but we also looked to new inspirations for the future.

Inspired by Skin's NeedsAs we learned in the Body Care 101 section, hydration is key to healthy-looking skin. So every G&H formula helps skin stay hydrated. Even our cleansers are designed to be effective without being destructive to skin's moisture barrier.

Inspired by FamilyG&H products were created for the whole family, from mum and dad right down to the kids.* The textures and scents will please both men and women—and hydrated, healthy-looking skin will please everyone.

Inspired by NatureG&H products use naturally inspired ingredients whenever possible, including the exclusive botanical blends used in each collection.

And to make sure nature is around to inspire future generations too, we've incorporated environmentally sensitive solutions throughout our package design, product formulation and manufacturing process (see p.44 for details).

G&H formulas are free of sulphates, and free of anti-bacterial ingredients like triclosan. Soaps and cleansers are biodegradable.

Inspired to Be the BestWe've leveraged our family and skin expertise to create innovative collections with improved performance and new technologies and ingredients compared to our previous body care collections. And every formula has been dermatologist- and allergy-tested to minimise the risk of irritation.

With a range of products in three complementary collections, featuring naturally inspired ingredients and eco-sensitive packaging, G&H™ body care is ideal for the whole family.*

Proof You Can SeeTo show just how effective G&H Nourish+™ Hand Cream is, we asked volunteers with dry skin (photo A) to use it for 5 days in a row. The results of this clinical study are clear: skin looks noticeably soft, smooth, and healthy (photo B).

But we didn't stop there. We took back our samples and asked the volunteers to return in 3 days, without using any Hand Cream in the meantime. Even without reapplying Hand Cream for 3 days, skin remains moisturised and healthy looking (photo C).

DAY 1:

Skin is dry.

DAY 5:

After using Nourish+ Hand Cream,

skin looks smooth and healthy.

DAY 8:

DEODORANT & ANTI-PERSPIRANT ROLL-ON

G&H PROTECT+™

How does Fragrance Encapsulation Technology work? Think of the fragrance molecules as being stored in tiny "bubbles" that pop as you move during the day. So when you're moving more—in other words, exactly when you need odour protection most—the encapsulation technology releases a new burst of freshness. You won't see or feel it (it's microscopic, after all), but you'll appreciate the scent surge: with this exclusive and proven technology, fragrance continues to be released hours after application.

What is the difference between a deodorant and an anti-perspirant? A deodorant masks or reduces body odour. An anti-perspirant reduces wetness, and as a result can also reduce odour. Our product combines both benefits in one, with the added power of our motion-release Fragrance Encapsulation Technology for even longer protection from odour.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

GENERAL PRODUCT

WHAT ARE THE KEY NATURALLY DERIVED INGREDIENTS IN G&H PRODUCTS?

G&H products use naturally inspired, vegetable-derived materials whenever possible, including especially the unique botanical blend used in each collection (see collection pages for details).

ARE ANY INGREDIENTS OR TECHNOLOGIES EXCLUSIVE TO G&H PRODUCTS? HOW MANY PATENTS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH G&H PRODUCTS?

Yes. We use multiple exclusive technologies and there are two Amway® patents associated with G&H products, plus one patent pending.

Patents. G&H products leverage a mildness patent and two moisturising patents (one patent pending).

Exclusive Fragrance Encapsulation Technology. This exclusive motion-release technology is found in Protect+ Deodorant & Anti-Perspirant Roll-On,

Fragrances. All G&H fragrances are exclusive to our collections.

DO ANY G&H PRODUCTS INCLUDE SUNSCREEN?

No, the G&H collection currently does not contain any products with sunscreen. If you are seeking a facial sunscreen, ask about the ARTISTRY® skincare collection, which has several options. We may add an SPF body lotion in the future.

WHAT CLINICAL TESTING OR LABORATORY SUPPORT IS AVAILABLE FOR G&H PRODUCTS?

Clinical testing was performed to support safety claims for all products. Clinical evaluations for efficacy were also conducted on Nourish+ Hand Cream and Protect+ Deodorant & Anti-Perspirant Roll-On. All test results are on file in the Research and Development Department archives.

ARE G&H PRODUCTS SULPHATE-FREE?

Yes. In particular, our liquid cleansers are sulphate-free. While many similar products on the market contain these chemicals, G&H cleansers were formulated to eliminate sulphates while maintaining efficacy.

ARE ANY G&H PRODUCTS FRAGRANCE-FREE?

No. All G&H products are lightly scented with our exclusive signature fragrances, designed to appeal to both men and women.

DO G&H PRODUCTS CONTAIN ANY ANIMAL INGREDIENTS?

There are no animal ingredients in any G&H products. However, the Orange Blossom Honey in our Nourish+ collection comes from bees, and so is considered animal-derived. To our knowledge, no bees were harmed.

DO G&H PRODUCTS CONTAIN GLUTEN?

No wheat-derived ingredients have been deliberately included in G&H products. However, the Orange Blossom Honey in our Nourish+ collection is a naturally inspired ingredient that could conceivably contain traces of gluten.

46 47

WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE OF G&H PRODUCTS, AND HOW LONG CAN I USE THEM AFTER OPENING?

The shelf life of the unopened product is three years. Once the products are opened, they have a 12-month shelf life.

HOW SHOULD G&H PRODUCTS BE STORED?

Prior to use, G&H products should be stored in a cool, dry place and out of direct sunlight. All the products have been developed to be stable under normal conditions. However, extreme heat or cold may cause instabilities (colour or fragrance changes, ingredient separation, etc.) and should be avoided.

PRODUCT USE

WHAT IS THE CORRECT ORDER OF USE FOR G&H PRODUCTS?

For best results, we recommend that you cleanse your skin before applying a body moisturiser or your Deodorant & Anti-Perspirant Roll-On. The Body Lotion, Body Milk, and Hand Cream can all be reapplied as often as needed.

CAN THE G&H BODY WASHES BE USED TO CLEANSE YOUR FACE AND HAIR?

Although the two body cleansers are mild and sulphate-free, we recommend ARTISTRY® face cleansers for facial use. The Nourish+ Complexion Bar is also well-suited for facial use. We recommend SATINIQUE® hair care products for sensational hair that's beautiful from the inside out.

DO G&H BODY WASHES CHANGE THE SKIN'S PH?

No, G&H body washes are formulated to have a pH of less than 7, and therefore do not have a significant effect on the pH of the skin.

ARE G&H PRODUCTS PH-BALANCED?

Yes. All G&H formulas (except bar soaps) have been formulated to be slightly acidic, just like skin. A pH number measures how acidic or alkaline something is; a pH of 7 or above (the scale tops out at 14) is alkaline, or basic, while a pH below 7 is acidic. The pH of skin is around 5.5, making it slightly acidic. (To maintain efficacy, our bar soaps have a slightly higher pH, closer to 9 or 10.)

CAN YOU USE PROTECT+ CONCENTRATED HAND SOAP TO CLEANSE YOUR FACE?

No, this hand soap is a mild formula but was designed for use on the hands, not the face. For face, we recommend Nourish+ Complexion Bar or an ARTISTRY® cleanser.

IS THERE A MINIMUM RECOMMENDED AGE TO USE G&H PRODUCTS?

All G&H products have been formulated for all ages, except infants (apart from the Deodorant & Anti-Perspirant Roll-On, which is recommended for teenagers who have started puberty and older).

ARE G&H PRODUCTS RECOMMENDED FOR A SPECIFIC SKIN TYPE?

No, the G&H products are designed for all skin types. Of course, individuals with special needs (like dermatitis) should seek specific advice from their dermatologist.

SAFETY & CAUTION

ARE G&H PRODUCTS APPROPRIATE FOR EXTREMELY SENSITIVE SKIN?

G&H products were not tested on sensitive skin and should not be recommended for customers with extremely sensitive skin.

WILL G&H PRODUCTS EVER CAUSE A SKIN REACTION?

We hope not! We use only high quality ingredients that are known to be tolerated by a wide variety of skin types. But despite our extensive testing, it is possible that some customers may experience a skin reaction. This is due to natural human variation (everybody's skin is different and reacts differently to ingredients) and is true for every product and every brand. Even a changing season, a different combination with other products, or variations in diet can affect skin's reaction.

IF I (OR A CUSTOMER) EXPERIENCE ANY SKIN REACTION AFTER USING A G&H PRODUCT, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Tingling sensations, a slight stinging or mild redness were not reported during our safety studies. If you experience sensation or any unusual reaction from a G&H product, we recommend that you discontinue use for a significant period of time (one to four weeks). If desired, try it again under different circumstances (new season, use with a different body wash, etc.), but if you experience a reaction again, it is likely that you are sensitive to an ingredient in the formula and we encourage you find a comfortable alternative. If you or a customer experiences a skin reaction, please contact Amway® on 1800 45 46 47 in Australia and 0800 611 611 in New Zealand.

CAN G&H™ PRODUCTS BE USED AFTER A BAD SUNBURN?

Generally, we do not recommend that any skin care product be used after a “bad” sunburn. Furthermore, our products were not tested on sensitive skin. Therefore, G&H products should be used after sunburn-related inflammation has subsided. If desired, the Refresh+ Body Milk may be preferred as it absorbs quickly, with minimal rubbing.

CAN G&H PRODUCTS BE USED DURING PREGNANCY?

Ingredients in G&H products have been shown to be safe for use by all women. Safety studies of body care formulas are not conducted on pregnant women. Whether to use or not use this product should be discussed by the woman and her doctor.

ARE G&H PRODUCTS OPHTHALMOLOGIST-TESTED?

G&H products are not intended for use in the eye area and therefore no ophthalmologist testing was required. However, all our products are dermatologist- and allergy-tested.

G&H™ BODY CARE DEMONSTRATIONS G&H™ BODY CARE DEMONSTRATIONS

PURPOSE: These quick, easy demos help vividly demonstrate a key benefit of each product. Demonstrations are a great way to create excitement and a point of difference for G&H products.

DEMONSTRATIONS

FEATURED PRODUCTS (CHOOSE ONE):G&H Nourish+™ Body Lotion G&H Refresh+™ Body Milk Can also be used with G&H Nourish+ Hand Cream.

OTHER ITEMS YOU'LL NEED:• 2 standard coffee filters • scissors• 2 clear glasses or jars • food colouring (ideally any colour but red)• 2 rubber bands • bottle of water

DEMONSTRATION:As you are setting up, remind customer about the importance of skin's moisture barrier. This thin protective layer is key to skin's ability to stay moist and healthy looking, and you're about to show why.

Place one coffee filter over each glass and secure with a rubber band. Make sure to leave a small indentation in the middle of the coffee filter (careful not to puncture or tear) in each for when you pour water over them later. Trim off excess paper if needed.

Leave one glass with filter as-is, explaining that the filter represents the customer's skin without any treatment.

With the other glass, apply a liberal amount of product to the coffee filter, gently rubbing it in as you would on your skin so it creates a smooth film. Explain that this filter represents skin treated with lotion. Wipe off any excess with your fingers and offer to massage it into customer's hand and forearm for a luxurious, moisturising experience. IMPORTANT: do not puncture or tear the filter.

As the customer watches, place two drops of food colouring on each filter and explain that the food colouring represents healthy nutrients within skin. Together, notice how the filter with lotion ensures that the colour "nutrients" bead up and remain concentrated, while the untreated filter soaks up and diffuses the drops.

Now pour a small amount of water over each filter (taking care not to fill the treated filter higher than where lotion has been applied). Notice how the untreated filter allows the water to run through, taking the food colouring with it—just as untreated skin allows moisture and nutrients to leak out. On the other hand, the filter treated with lotion remains strong, keeping the moisture and nutrients in.

CLEAN SCENE MOISTURE YOU CAN'T WASH OFF

FEATURED PRODUCT:G&H Nourish+™ Complexion Bar

OTHER ITEMS YOU'LL NEED:• plastic knife• bottle of water• bowl (to catch the water)• small mirror• paper towel for clean-up

DEMONSTRATION:Start by slicing a Complexion Bar with a plastic knife, explaining that you can cut it because of the bar's high glycerin content—which makes it more moisturising and gentle on your skin.

Next, sprinkle a few drops of water onto the Complexion Bar to create a lather. Apply some lather to the mirror, then briefly rinse the mirror to show how the lather washes easily away. No residue remains on the mirror—or on your skin.

FEATURED PRODUCT:G&H Nourish+™ Hand Cream

OTHER ITEMS YOU'LL NEED:• hand soap (use Protect+ Concentrated Hand Soap or any available soap)• sink with towel or paper towel

DEMONSTRATION:Start by taking a moment with the customer to look at her (or his) hands. Compliment them on the positive things you see, and observe any challenges such as dry areas or cuticles. This is a good time to discuss how hard daily living can be on hands, with frequent washing, harsh household products, environmental exposure and constant use.Invite the customer to apply the Hand Cream, encouraging them to massage it all over hands and into cuticles. Together, observe the instant feeling of deep nourishment. Allow the cream to absorb while you share another product or demonstration, such as Brilliant Barrier using either the Hand Cream or one of the body treatments.After 15 minutes, have the customer run his or her hands under water and notice the slippery, conditioned feel of the skin. Then, with the Hand Soap, have the customer wash his or her hands. After thoroughly drying, ask him or her to enjoy how moisturised they still feel. Remind the customer that Nourish+ Hand Cream leaves skin feeling moisturised not just for 15 minutes but for a full 24 hours.

THE CASE OF THE VANISHING ODOUR FRESH BURSTS OF FRAGRANCE

FEATURED PRODUCT:G&H Protect+™ Deodorant & Anti-Perspirant Roll-On

OTHER ITEMS YOU'LL NEED:• paper towel (unscented)

DEMONSTRATION:Fold a single square of paper towel two times. Swipe the Deodorant & Anti-Perspirant Roll-on onto the paper towel (go back and forth three times, with each swipe about 3 inches/7-8 cm long) and allow it to dry for 30 minutes.

NOTE: Because the product takes a while to dry, be ready to share several other products or demonstrations, then come back to this one. You might also consider preparing the paper towel up to 2 hours ahead of time.

Once the product has dried, invite the customer to smell the paper towel and observe the strength of the fragrance (it won't be especially strong).

Then fold the paper towel and rub the Roll-On marks together four or five times, explaining how this is similar to how your arm rubs against your body when you are active.

Invite the customer to smell the paper towel again and observe the fresh burst of fragrance.

FEATURED PRODUCTS (CHOOSE ONE):G&H Protect+™ Concentrated Hand SoapG&H Protect+ Bar Soap

OTHER ITEMS YOU'LL NEED:• onion (or other strongly scented

food like garlic or tuna fish)• knife and plate or cutting board• sink with towel or paper towel

DEMONSTRATION:Slice the onion in half, making sure to touch the fresh surface with your fingers. Together with the customer, observe the odour that remains on your fingers.

Wash hands thoroughly using Concentrated Hand Soap. After drying hands, invite customer to observe how the odour has been neutralised. This is a good time to explain how the exclusive Malodor Fragrance Technology in the product works: it chemically locks onto odour compounds, neutralising them so you can no longer smell them. (The same technology is also used in Protect+ Bar Soap.)

OR, WITH BAR SOAP:

DEMONSTRATION: Slice the onion in half, making sure to touch the fresh surface with your fingers. Together with the customer, observe the odour that remains on your fingers.

Wash hands thoroughly using Bar Soap. After drying hands, invite customer to observe how the odor has been neutralised. This is a good time to explain how the exclusive Malodor Fragrance Technology in the products works: it chemically locks onto odour compounds—whether food odour or body odour—and neutralises them so you can no longer smell them.
