Environ Skin EssentiA AVST Gel is the ideal entry point into Environ's renowned vitamin A skincare — a mild, cooling gel moisturiser that gently introduces skin to vitamin A without overwhelming it. As Step 1 of the Skin EssentiA Vitamin STEP-UP SYSTEM, it contains the lowest concentrations of vitamin A and vitamin C in the range, making it ideal for beginners and for sensitive, reactive, congested or acne-prone skin.

Its lightweight, water-based formula combines a low dose of vitamin A with the antioxidants vitamins C and E to calm sensitivity, soothe redness and support a fresh, healthy-looking complexion. Many of our customers reach for it to help manage rosacea-prone, easily irritated skin, and it can even soothe skin after burns or atrophy.
