Environ Skincare has launched two new Retinol Boosters, advancing their unique Algorithm to help control youthful skin longevity. For more than 40 years, it’s been Dr. Des Fernandes’ life’s work researching vitamin A’s impact on skin health, expanding the intricate understanding of what happens to skin biologically and chronologically through life.
The two new serums; Environ Tri-Retinoid Retinol Serum and the Environ Retinol Serum Forte are additions to the Environ Focus Care Youth + Collection.
Cellular ageing is not fixed to the pace of chronological time – it can be sped up and slowed down”, says Dr. Fernandes. Science proves that the biological age of skin is vitally dependant on maximising Vitamin A micro-nutrition. The solid base of research supports Environ’s Skincare Philosophy and vitamin A as the key driver of skin longevity.
“All the information needed to prolong the health span of skin lies within our skin cells. We understand the specifics of cellular language and work with adequate micronutrition to stimulate the effects of youthful cellular behaviour throughout life”.
The New Environ Retinol Serums Environ’s two new intensifying Retinol Serums are recommended as add-on boosters to daily Vitamin A topical replenishment, introduced when the skin is acclimated to medium or high concentrations of Vitamin A.
These Serums are clinically proven to improve the appearance of wrinkles, firmness, elasticity, hydration, skin tone and texture, working synergistically with the skin’s natural processes to affect a safe, effective, and balanced range of natural retinoic acid stimulation. The new formulations intelligently combine retinol plus other retinoid forms to optimise the effects of natural retinoic acid on youthful cellular behaviour. Potent antioxidants assist to diminish the effects of oxidative stress. Additional specialised boosters promote the benefits of natural moisturising properties and skin barrier resilience.
Powerful Phyto-Retinol Boosters Intensify Effects with the Retinol Serum Forte. Revinage™ is scientifically shown to stimulate vitamin A receptor activity, proven to deliver the powerful effects of retinol without the irritation. NovoRetin™ is proven to amplify effects by safeguarding the amount of retinoic acid in the skin cell from the natural enzymatic degradation.
NEW Environ Retinol Serum
The main differences in the new Retinol Serum (which replaces Retinol 1 & 2) are :
- Retinyl Acetate has been replaced with Retinyl Propionate - this has made the product more stable and extended the shelf life from 6 months to 18 months.
- Added antioxidants, including:
- Tomato Fruit Extract, which adds luminosity to the skin and clinically proven to reduce wrinkles.
- Vitamin E, which strengthens the skin barrier and protects against blue light.
- Added barrier boosters to improve the integrity of the skin, reduces the drying effect of retinol and improves overall skin hydration. These barrer boosters include:
- Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil
- Squalane
- Hemi-Squalane
How to integrate Environ Retinol Serum into your skincare regime:
Introduce this booster when the skin is comfortable with medium levels of vitamin A. You can begin to integrate Retinol Serum into your regime once skin has acclimated to Environ Skin EssentiA AVST 3 or Environ Youth EssentiA C-Quence Serum 3 or higher.
Environ AVST 5 users, who have never used Retinol before - you will use 1-2 bottles of Retinol Serum then step up to Retinol Serum Forte.
PLEASE NOTE: Retinol Serum is a direct replacement for Environ Retinol Serum 1 & Serum 2, which will be discontinued once sold out.
NEW Environ Retinol Serum Forte
The new Retinol Serum Forte has all the same benefits and formulations of the Retinol Serum with some additional ingredients. The main difference between Retinol 3 and the new Retinol Serum Forte is the new formulation which includes 3 powerful types of Vitamin A (Retinol):
The above ingredients are combined a stable serum concentrate (meaning the shelf life of the product has now been extended) and the formulation now includes retinoid effect boosters (AKA “Phyto-Retinol Boosters”):
- Revinage: This helps to deliver all the benefits of Retinol without irritation and completely minimises the chance of retinoid reaction.
- NovoRetin: This safeguards/ protects the amount of Retinoid Acid in the skin cells. It’s added to support the Vitamin A that is being made in the skin - enhancing the effect of Vitamin A
All in all the new Retinol Serum Forte has been enhanced to deliver the maximised benefits of Vitamin A to the skin and extend the longevity effect of the product, while also protecting against any adverse effects and increasing the luminosity of your complexion.
How to integrate Environ Retinol Serum Forte into your skincare regime:
