The Decide activity is your basic if statement, but you can also use things like the Max Wait Timer on the Pull from List for certain kinds of if conditions.

Looping will usually be done with a connector that loops back up to a top activity. You'll probably use a Decide or some sort of if activity to decide when to get out of the loop.

You can also use the Run Sub Flow activity to represent things like looping through all the items on your item label. See this question for an example.

A lot of this will depend on the specific thing you're trying to model, so feel free to ask about specific cases.
