Why does Environ Skin Care work So Well?
Environ Skin Care was created by Dr. Des Fernandes, a renowned plastic surgeon and a pioneer in his field in the 1980’s. The philosophy is based on the idea that “skin has a life and that Vitamin A is the “oxygen” it needs to look beautiful and healthy for life.” (Environskincare.com) Environ’s approach of building its formulas around Vitamin A set it apart. Vitamin A is an essential nutrient for healthy-looking skin, which is why we think it belongs in almost every skin care routine. Environ also includes other ingredients such as antioxidants and peptides as part of their formula to leave your skin looking its best.
Vitamin A:
Dr. Des Fernandes’ skin care philosophy comes from his philosophy that “Aging skin is a direct result of sun-induced Vitamin A deficiency. Correct the deficiency and you’ll have more radiant-looking skin.” Environ Skin Care Products work so well because it replenishes the skin with Vitamin A, which is one of the best antiaging ingredients. Environ’s view is that sun exposure depletes the Vitamin A in skin, and that topping it back up helps with the look of sun damage, uneven pigmentation and aging. That’s why we like to replenish skin with this hard-working antiaging ingredient. Environ has an innovative skincare formula, known as the Vitamin Step-Up System, in which the brand’s serums contain different levels of Vitamin A (or Retinol). As your skin gets used to increased levels of Vitamin A, the serum you use changes. This is also why Environ must be used with a skincare consultation from a professional. Vitamin A has a lot of benefits for the skin, which is why it has become the cornerstone ingredient of Environ skincare.

How do I Know I Can Use Environ?
With a treatment skin care line like Environ, it’s really important that the client has an analysis of the skin. The purpose of which is to determine which products are right for them. The products are strong, with very active ingredients. Irritation and sensitivity potentially occur with incorrect product application. Also, if the wrong products are used for the wrong conditions, then the client will not get results.
