Environ Skin EssentiA AVST 5 Moisturiser is the fifth and final vitamin A moisturiser in Environ’s Vitamin Step-Up System™.

Designed for experienced Environ users whose skin has already progressed through the previous AVST levels, this advanced daily facial moisturiser contains the highest concentration of vitamins A and C in the Skin EssentiA range.

The formula combines cosmetic vitamin A derivatives with vitamin C, antioxidants, botanical extracts and Matrixyl® 3000 peptides. Used consistently, it helps support the skin’s natural moisture levels, soften the appearance of fine lines, improve the look of uneven skin tone and minimise visible signs of ageing and sun damage.

AVST 5 also helps leave the complexion looking smoother, more resilient and radiantly healthy. It is intended as the long-term maintenance level once the skin has been properly acclimatised through AVST Moisturiser 4.

Key Benefits

  • Advanced vitamin A support: Contains the highest concentration of vitamin A within the Skin EssentiA AVST moisturiser range.
  • Smoother-looking skin: Helps soften the appearance of fine lines and improve the look of uneven texture.
  • More even-looking tone: Supports a brighter, clearer and more uniform-looking complexion.
  • Moisture support: Helps maintain the effects of the skin’s natural moisture levels for a comfortable, supple feel.
  • Antioxidant care: Vitamins C and E, beta-carotene and botanical antioxidants help support the skin against environmental stress.
  • Peptide-enriched formula: Matrixyl® 3000 peptides help improve the appearance of smoother, firmer-looking skin.
  • Long-term maintenance: The final AVST level is suitable for continued use once the skin has completed the Step-Up System™.

Who It Is For

Environ AVST 5 Moisturiser is best suited to:

  • Experienced Environ users who have already progressed through AVST 1, 2, 3 and 4.
  • Skin that has become fully comfortable with the previous AVST vitamin A levels.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Environ AVST 5?

Environ AVST 5 is the fifth and final moisturiser in the Skin EssentiA Vitamin Step-Up System™. It contains the highest concentration of vitamins A and C within the AVST moisturiser range and is intended for long-term maintenance.

Is Environ AVST 5 suitable for beginners?

No. AVST 5 is an advanced vitamin A moisturiser intended for skin that has already progressed through the previous AVST levels. New Environ users should begin at the Environ AVST 1 Moisturiser level recommended by an Environ skincare professional.

What comes after Environ AVST 5?

There is no higher Skin EssentiA AVST moisturiser level. Once you have reached AVST 5, it can be used as your ongoing maintenance moisturiser. Additional targeted Environ serums may be introduced following professional advice.

Does Environ AVST 5 contain retinol, and what percentage is it?

AVST 5 is a vitamin A moisturiser, but the current ingredient list contains the cosmetic vitamin A derivatives Retinyl Palmitate and Retinyl Acetate rather than retinol itself.

Environ does not publish AVST 5 as a simple retinol percentage. The product forms part of a progressive system based on increasing levels of cosmetic vitamin A derivatives. AVST 5 contains the highest vitamin A concentration in the Skin EssentiA moisturiser range.

How should I use Environ AVST 5?

Apply AVST 5 to the face and neck morning and evening after cleansing and toning. Use sunscreen during the day.

Does Environ AVST 5 contain SPF?

No. AVST 5 does not contain sunscreen. Apply a suitable broad-spectrum sunscreen as the final step of your morning routine.

Can I use Environ AVST 5 during pregnancy?

Because AVST 5 contains vitamin A and pregnancy can change skin sensitivity, seek personalised advice from your doctor, midwife and Environ skincare professional. Do not begin at AVST 5 during pregnancy unless your skin has already been professionally assessed and acclimatised.

Vitamin Step-Up System™

AVST 5 is the fifth and final level in Environ’s Vitamin Step-Up System™. Progress gradually through each level and only move up once your skin is comfortable with the current moisturiser.

Beautiful moisturiser for radiant skin ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I absolutely love this moisturiser! It leaves my skin feeling beautifully hydrated, soft and nourished without feeling heavy or greasy. My complexion looks smoother and more radiant, and it has become an essential part of my daily skincare routine. A little goes a long way, and I love how my skin feels after applying it. A beautiful product that I would happily recommend! 🥰

Fights against ageing

I have used AVST5 for many years (having built up from AVST1). I'm sure it has benefitted my skin a lot. I'm 75 years old and my skin looks so much younger. I only have one criticism - the cream has a yellow tint. So I only use it at night as I tend to perspire and light coloured clothing gets stained yellow round the neck.
