Environ-- A beautiful skin for a lifetime. 
ENVIRON SKIN CARE (Pty) Ltd.
Since ancient times, mankind has attempted to make cosmetics to improve the skin
and to hide the visible effects of ageing. The bitter truth is that, for the
most part, cosmetic creams remained simple old-fashioned moisturizers offering
“Dreams of Youthful Skin” wrapped in progressively more modern and more
expensive containers.
The introduction of vitamin A into the formulation of skin care products
heralded a new era in the treatment of sun-damaged skin. Although some cosmetic
houses were using very low doses of vitamin A in their skin care products in the
1980s, Dr Des Fernandes, a prominent Cape Town plastic surgeon, was the first
person in the world to introduce vitamin A in high effective doses. This range
established Environ® as a leader in skin care.
The Environ® skin care range was first formulated as a result of Dr Fernandes’
misfortune when he attempted to treat the melanoma of two young, charismatic
patients, who both died before they were twenty-three years old. Such a
horrifying experience leaves an indelible scar on one’s life as a doctor. For
this reason, he started to study the mechanism of skin cancer and the skin - and
thus Environ® was born.
The cosmetic manufacturing company, Environ Skin Care (Pty) Ltd., was founded by
Dr Fernandes in 1990 and he soon expanded its number of products into a full
skin care range. Environ® skin care products are manufactured under strictly
controlled laboratory conditions at the Environ® factory in Cape Town, South
Africa.
The company is owned by Dr Des Fernandes and his sister, Mrs. Val Carstens. It
now has an extensive distribution network throughout South Africa and exports to
more than thirty countries worldwide.
Dr Fernandes has specialized in the field of plastic surgery in which he has
gained the respect of his international peers. After a long career in the
commercial world, Val Carstens joined her brother at Environ Skin Care (Pty)
Ltd. as its CEO, bringing with her a wealth of business experience that she has
used to engineer and build Environ® into the company it is today.
