Environ Skin Care line is effective for the face and body since it applies a multi-layered attack on aging signs, acne skin, sunspotted skin and other common skin problems. The products are guided by Vitamin A and extremely active antioxidant ingredients. Environ makes use of the "step-up" system in treating the skin effectively and gradually to avoid any adverse reaction which acn result in skin damage.

Without applying Vitamin A cream in the morning and evening, your skin would most likely be deficient in this essential vitamin. Skin cells treat vitamin A differently from the majority of other vitamins and require it to travel through various receptors in order to be allowed into the cell itself. Begining with a high dose of Vitamin A will overload your skin in Vitamin A causing a retinoid reaction. A retinoid reaction may appear as redness,
dryness, or even breakouts. This is how your skin indicates that it has taken in more vitamin A than what it can handle.

Environ recommends starting at level one so that you can gradually reintroduce vitamin A into the skin and are more likely to avoid any adverse skin reactions without irritation. Once the skin has adjusted to the initial levels and had a chance to create more receptors to allow even more vitamin A within the cell, then you can step up to the next level.

We recommend starting with the Environ AVST 1 Moisturizer in the Skin Essentia collection and gradually working your way up to the AVST 5. Typically 1-2 months use per level is recommended.

The Eviron C-Quence Serum 1 is your starting point with the Youth Essentia collection and gradually working your way up to the Intensive erum 4 Plus.

The epidermis is our sole defence against the tough world outside, so why damage it further by using harsh ingredeints to 'polish' the skin, or constantly peeling it with acid and alcohol base preparations of vitamins (retinoic acid and retinol)?

To restore face skin to its former youthful state, we need a perfect epidermis! The Environ revolutionary ideology is to protect and help thicken and enrich the top layers of the skin, rather than strip and deplete the skin, but to make the skin healthy. Environ's products and treatments don't kill the first layer of skin; they are formulated to maximize penetration of
vitamins and antioxidants without damaging the outer layers of skin.

Vitamin A: Vitamin A is the "skin vitamin" all skin care systems require. It's used in the form of retinyl palmitate, retinyl acetate, retinol, retinyl propionate and beta-carotene. Scientifically
known as the skin "normalizer," it prevents and improves the look
of photo-aging by visibly improving hydration, correcting the look of lax, colored, unhealthy-looking skin.

The proprietary Eviron step-up system of increasing doses of vitamin A habituates the skin to the lower dosing of vitamin A before progressing to the higher dose products.

Vitamin C: Lipo vitamin C, in addition to being a free radical scavenger, helps to perform a valuable role in minimizing the look of lax skin and uneven skin color. Environ® pioneered the use of a stabilized, mild, patented and highly effective, fat-soluble vitamin C in their skincare products.

Hyaluronic Acid: Hyaluronic Acid is scientifically shown to hold as much as 1000 times its weight in water and is also recognized to play a crucial function in the process of aging. It helps to increase the effect of greater levels of hydration, to smooth and plump the appearance of the skin.

Antioxidants: Free radical scavengers in the form of natural antioxidant vitamins C, E, B5, beta-carotene and resveratrol help to reverse the look of free radical damage.

Biopeptides and Polypeptides such as Dermaxyl®, Matrixyl®, Argireline®, Trylagen® and others have been proven clinically to be very effective in contributing to the reduction of the appearance of wrinkles. Working synergistically with
vitamins A, C and E, they help improve the appearance of more firm, brighter, resiliently younger-looking skin.

Panthenol Pro-vitamin B5 is used to help extend the action of the waterproofing barrier of the skin, support the protection against the activity of free radicals and reduce the problems due to clogging.

Growth Factors: Growth Factors help by supporting to attain the look of tighter and healthier skin.

AHAs and BHAs Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids reduce signs of aging through mild exfoliation of dry, flaky skin, leaving the skin feeling smoother and improving effectiveness of products

It is no secret that vitamin A and C are essential to the skin; hence they are currently being utilized by many lines. Dr Des Fernandes, the founder of Environ, was the very first to utilize fat soluble vitamins at useful concentrations. Environ products are fresh. The quality and preparation of the ingredients are the two most significant details to what make Environ so special. Environ products have made it across the globe with numerous awards,
Swiss Vitamin Institute certification, and obviously improved results.

Environ products consist of only the highest quality ingredients and fresh, active vitamins. They are hypo-allergenic and colourant-free. All vitamins lose their potency. It is therefore worth trying to use the freshest produce you can so you get the best outcome. To make this possible and to keep our products hypoallergenic, some of the range are made to order and sent fresh, and most of the range have no added perfumes or preservatives when being made. This is one of the few ranges in the world to do this. 

Environ skincare products are tested extensively on humans, however ingredients are never tested on animals. Environ is a cruelty free company.

Choosing the right Environ products starts with understanding your skin type and primary concerns such as dryness, oiliness, sensitivity, pigmentation, or breakouts, since Environ designs its routines around both skin type and condition rather than a one size fits all approach. Certain product lines by Environ were created with specific conditions and skin types in mind, which we’ve laid out for you below, with the Environ skincare benefits explained through targeted ranges.

Skin EssentiA : A great starting point for younger users of all skin types, that helps introduce lower concentrations of Vitamin A and other actives to the skin. You can build your entire routine around Skin EssentiA products if you want.

Youth EssentiA: Higher concentrations of Vitamin A, C, and other ingredients that make these products more effective for mature skin experiencing early to late signs of aging. This line also has enough offerings to build your entire routine around.

Focus Care Clarity+ : If your skin is prone to acne or periodic breakouts, this range is designed to help clear congestion, balance excess oil, and reduce blemishes using vitamin A alongside ingredients like salicylic acid and botanical extracts.

Focus Care Moisture+ : Designed for dry and dehydrated skin, this range combines vitamin A with nourishing moisturizers and hydrating ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid to restore moisture balance.

Focus Care Comfort+ : Ideal for sensitive or reactive skin, Comfort+ products include calming ingredients like oat and botanical extracts alongside vitamin A to soothe irritation and reduce redness.

These are simply the highlights but needless to say, Environ truly has something for everyone and every skin type!

With Environ Skincare products, most users will need several weeks of consistent daily use before meaningful improvements appear, especially because the formulas are built around vitamin A and antioxidants that work at a deeper cellular level to build a meaningful foundation for future skin health. Clinical and user-reported timelines suggest that initial changes can begin around 4 to 8 weeks, with more noticeable results typically developing over 8 to 12 weeks or longer.
