When it comes to achieving radiant, youthful skin, Environ's Step Up System is not just a routine—it's a journey. Designed to introduce your skin to the wonders of Vitamin A gradually, this system ensures that your skin stays healthy, vibrant, and simply beautiful. Let's dive into the details of how it all works.

The Power of Vitamin A: The Skin's Hero Ingredient

Vitamin A is to your skin what oxygen is to your body—it's essential. Basically, Vitamin A is the unsung hero of skincare. Environ Skincare considers it the cornerstone ingredient, and for a good reason. But what makes Vitamin A so fantastic for your skin? Why the hype?

Supports Natural Moisturizers: Giving your skin that coveted radiance.
Strengthens the Skin’s Outer Layer: Keeping it firm and resilient.
Stimulates Protein Production: Think collagen and elastin for that healthy, youthful look.
Supports the Skin's Immune System: The ultimate defender against breakouts.

However, maintaining the delicate balance of Vitamin A in your skin is crucial. Sun damage and other factors can deplete this essential nutrient, leading to signs of aging, dullness, and uneven skin tone.

As Dr. Des Fernandez, Environ Founder, puts it simply: "Aging skin is a direct result of sun-induced vitamin A deficiency. Correct the deficiency and you’ll have more radiant-looking skin."

Enter the Step Up System: Your Path to Radiant Skin

Environ's core products, the Skin Essentia range, follow a Step Up System. This series introduces increasing levels of Vitamin A, along with other essential vitamins and antioxidants. It's like a personalized roadmap for your skin, making it easy to progress through different levels without overwhelming your skin.

How It Works:

AVST 1 Moisturizer: The starting point with the lowest active ingredients. Use 2-3 bottles until your skin is comfortable.
AVST 2 Moisturizer: Gradually move to a higher level of active ingredients. Again, use 2-3 bottles until your skin feels happy and gives you the green light.
Continue Progression: Keep stepping up through AVST 3 and 4 with a recommended 3-4 bottles before reaching the pinnacle with AVST 5.

Advanced Steps:

But the Step Up System doesn't stop there. As your skin's needs change, so can your routine.

1. Maintaining Your Glow (20s): Stick with AVST 5 until you notice changes.
2. Supporting Your Skin (30s and beyond): Pair AVST 5 with Cquence 1 for that extra vitamin boost, then graduate to Cquence 2.
3. Improving Your Skin (Sun damage, fine lines, pigmentation, scarring): Combine AVST 5 with Retinol 1, adding Cquence on top for a powerful combination.

Why a Skin Consultation Matters

Before you embark on this exciting journey, a skin consultation is key. Vitamin A needs to be introduced slowly to avoid a "retinoid response"—irritation, dryness, and peeling. We're here to guide you through the maze, ensuring you're not overwhelming your skin. A skin consultation is your compass in this journey to healthier, more radiant skin.

In essence, start low, go slow, and watch your skin glow with Environ's Step Up System.
