Environ Skin Care (Pty) Ltd

General information

Environ is a globally recognised and loved Professional Skin Care brand that is built on science, beauty and care.

We believe that skin has a life and that vitamin A is the “oxygen” it needs to look beautiful and healthy for life. It is for this reason that we actively pursue skin care science to skilfully and consistently develop best-in-class, scientifically researched and developed products that work with skin.

Pioneer
The introduction of vitamin A into skin care formulations was a ground-breaking development in skin care. Dr Des Fernandes, rated amongst the top five plastic surgeons in the world, was a pioneer in this field in the 1980s. He was the first to use vitamin A in high enough doses that help counteract the harmful effects of the environment, pollution and stress, and create radiant, visibly improved skin.

Through intensive research he discovered the essential role vitamin A plays in skin health. He became determined to create a skin care range that would maintain healthy skin, especially as the incidence of sun-related skin disorders was growing worldwide.

Cornerstone Ingredient
Since he founded Environ in 1990, vitamin A has become the cornerstone ingredient in the Environ skin care philosophy. It is an essential skin nutrient that has to be replenished every day for skin to appear healthier and more resilient .

Combined with other essential nutrients, like antioxidants and peptides, the long-term enhancement of skin becomes clearly visible. Backed by constant research, new and even more effective products are continually being introduced to the Environ range.

World Acclaim
As a brand, we are proud enough to recommend our products to the people who matter most in our lives. If we weren’t, we wouldn’t create them.

With 140 products in over 70 countries, Environ has developed an extensive distribution network globally as a direct result of the scientifically proven effectiveness of our product range. We are a firm favourite among those in the know – Environ is acclaimed by international skin care therapists, dermatologists, beauty editors, top film stars and super models alike.
