Soft, nourished body skin with a healthy glow.
Your body skin feels dry after every shower, and the sun has left your arms, chest and the backs of your hands looking less even than you would like.
Body Oil nourishes dry skin and helps sun exposed skin look smoother and more even. It carries vitamin A, an oil soluble form of vitamin C and vitamin E, the antioxidant vitamins Environ builds its whole range around, in light jojoba oil and triglycerides. It massages in easily and leaves skin soft and supple.
Who It Is For
Dry or sun exposed body skin, including skin on the thighs and hips that looks dimpled, and anyone who wants their body care to do more than moisturize.
Not Acne Safe
What You Will See, and When
Skin feels softer and more supple from the first use. Give it several weeks of twice daily use before judging how even skin looks.
How to Use
Morning or night, after a shower or bath, massage a thin layer into clean, slightly damp skin until it sinks in, keeping it away from your eyes. For extra hydration, follow with your body moisturizer. In the morning, finish with sunscreen on any skin that will see the sun.
The Science
Vitamin A is central to how skin renews itself. Retinyl propionate is a gentle ester form that skin converts, step by step, into its active form, which makes it a comfortable way to bring vitamin A into a daily body routine.
Most vitamin C is water soluble and breaks down easily. Ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate is an oil soluble, stable form that moves well into the skin's lipid layers, where enzymes release free vitamin C. Paired with vitamin E, it helps defend skin against the everyday oxidative stress that sun exposure brings.

Why a Routine Made for You Works Better
General advice is written for everyone, so it has to assume nothing about you. It can tell you what is safe. It cannot tell you what will work for your skin.
Skin changes when it is challenged just enough, then given time to recover and adapt. That amount is different for every person, and it moves as your skin gets stronger. Ask too much and your skin spends its energy recovering instead of improving. Ask too little and nothing changes. Finding that point for you, and moving it at the right time, is where results come from.
Where that point sits depends on:
-
Your skin: its history, how it reacts, and what it is doing today
-
Your health: hormones, medications, pregnancy and any condition that changes how skin behaves
-
Your lifestyle: sleep, stress, diet, sun, exercise and climate
-
Your routine: what you use now, and what has and has not worked before
-
Your goals: what you most want to change
-
Your expectations and timeline: how soon you want to see change, and what is realistic for your skin
-
Your consistency: how much time and how many steps you will keep up with, because the best routine is the one you actually do
-
Your treatments: what you have had and what you have planned
A skin therapist weighs all of this, builds a routine you can keep, and adjusts it as your skin responds. That is why we guarantee our products when they are part of a routine designed by one of our skin therapists. If you have been reading general advice, bring your questions.
