Herbalife India, a premier health and wellness company and community, announces the launch of Vritilife Outer Nutrition Range, unveiling its entry into the Indian luxury skincare market. The newly launched skin care range includes a facial cleanser, facial toner, facial serum, and moisturiser.

With this launch, Vritilife becomes an important part of Herbalife’s product portfolio.
Herbalife India has shown consistent growth since 2009. Initially focused on weight management, the company has diversified its product portfolio with 48 products including fitness & performance, daily nutrition, and overall health. In Q1 2024, ending on March 31, Herbalife’s net sales in India reached $203.5 million, a 13.9% increase compared to the same period in 2023. Herbalife India is the number one market globally among the 95 countries in which the company operates.
Ajay Khanna, MD, Herbalife India, said, “As Herbalife stands at the cusp of its next phase of growth in India, we are excited to launch the Vritilife Outer Nutrition Range.
