Environ Skin EssentiA Vita-Antioxidant AVST Moisturiser 1

Environ Skin EssentiA Vita-Antioxidant AVST Moisturiser 1 is the entry-level moisturizer in Environ's signature Vitamin STEP-UP SYSTEM™ - a professionally formulated cream containing a low concentration of Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A), Vitamin C, and antioxidants designed to gently introduce skin to Vitamin A while delivering daily hydration.

AVST Moisturiser 1 is recommended for clients new to Environ, normal to dry skin types, and anyone establishing a foundational anti-aging routine guided by a professional esthetician. The creamy, comforting texture absorbs beautifully and layers under SPF and makeup, working morning and evening as Step 1 of a five-step gradient system.

At Le Petit Spa in Charlotte, NC, this is the moisturiser we most often recommend to clients beginning their Environ vitamin A journey. Our estheticians love guiding clients through the Step-Up System, starting here and progressing gradually as the skin builds tolerance.
