Gentle Vitamin A Gel for Sensitive, Reactive Skin

Environ AVST Gel is the entry point of the Vitamin Step-Up System, a lightweight, cooling gel moisturizer formulated with the lowest concentration of vitamin A and vitamin C in the entire range. Suitable for all skin types including the most sensitive, and safe during pregnancy, it calms redness and irritation while introducing the skin to vitamin A gently. Does not contain sunscreen.

Laziza S

"If you have sensitive skin, this is genuinely one of the easier ways to introduce vitamin A. Without a step up system like this, most reactive skin types struggle to tolerate vitamin A at all. It is a light gel, which also makes it especially suitable for oily skin that wants the benefits without any heaviness. I recommend it to anyone whose skin needs that gentler starting point before working up to something stronger."

A Gentle Way to Begin Vitamin A

Introducing vitamin A too quickly is one of the most common causes of irritation, redness, and peeling. AVST Gel solves this by starting at the lowest possible concentration in the entire step-up system, allowing the most sensitive and reactive skin to begin building tolerance safely. After one to three bottles, most clients are ready to progress to the next level of the system.

Retinyl Palmitate

The mildest form of vitamin A in the step-up system, helping normalize skin function and gently introduce the skin to vitamin A's anti-aging benefits.

Vitamin C

Support collagen production, even out skin tone, and provide antioxidant protection at a gentle concentration appropriate for sensitive skin.

Beta-Carotene

An additional antioxidant that helps protect the skin from environmental stress while supporting a healthy, even-looking complexion.

Calms Redness and Soothes Reactive Skin

For skin that is sensitive, congested, or easily irritated, even gentle actives can cause discomfort. AVST Gel is specifically formulated to calm redness and soothe irritation while still delivering the benefits of vitamin A and antioxidant protection. Its cooling, water-based texture makes it comfortable even on compromised or reactive skin, which is why it is often recommended after a professional treatment as well.

Helps Skin Function Efficiently and Improves Tone

Vitamin A helps regulate how skin cells behave, supporting more balanced oil production and smoother, more even-looking texture over time. Even at the lowest concentration in the AVST system, this normalizing effect is present, helping improve the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin tone gradually. With consistent use, skin looks more settled, more even, and more resilient.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should start with Environ AVST Gel instead of AVST Moisturiser 1?

AVST Gel contains the lowest concentration of vitamin A and C in the entire system, making it the right starting point for very sensitive, reactive, congested, or acne-prone skin. It is also a good long-term option for oily skin that prefers a lighter, cooling gel texture over a cream.

Is this safe to use during pregnancy?

Yes. AVST Gel is one of only two levels in the AVST system confirmed safe for use during pregnancy, along with AVST Moisturiser 1. As always, consult your healthcare provider before introducing any new skincare product during pregnancy.

Can children use AVST Gel?

Yes. It is gentle enough to be used by all ages, including children, due to its low concentration of actives and calming formulation. This makes it a useful introductory option for very young or reactive skin under appropriate guidance.

Can I use this under my regular moisturizer?

es. AVST Gel can be applied under any Environ moisturizer for added comfort and hydration, making it a flexible addition even for clients who are already using a higher level in the step-up system.

How long should I use AVST Gel before progressing?

A minimum of one to three bottles, depending on your skin's tolerance. There is no need to rush. Letting your skin fully adjust at this gentlest level sets a strong foundation before introducing the higher concentrations in AVST Moisturiser 1 and beyond.
