Environ’s Intense C-Boost® Mela-Even Cream, a formulation showcasing the brand’s pioneering use of vitamin C in skincare, won Gold at the prestigious 2024 Glamour South Africa Beauty Awards.
Dr Des Fernandes, co-founder and scientific director of Environ, began formulating with vitamin C over 25 years ago, pioneering the use of its oil-soluble form to optimise this powerful skin nutrient.
“We have always believed in using vitamin C in its most effective form. The Intense C-Boost Mela-Even Cream is a result of years of research to develop a scientifically advanced formulation that helps minimise the appearance of skin discolouration, improves protection against UV-induced cell damage, and enhances skin resistance to oxidative stress,” says Dr Fernandes.
Award-winning beauty innovation
Intense C-Boost® Mela-Even Cream contains an expertly blended combination of the antioxidant vitamins C and E. The combo may assist in shielding the skin from environmental stressors and may inhibit tyrosine conversion to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone and visible sun damage. The result is skin that looks healthier and more evenly toned. Environ’s award-winning formulation features Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate. This is a scientifically proven, oil-soluble form of vitamin C that works synergistically with vitamin E.
The Glamour Beauty Awards celebrate the very best in beauty innovation, honouring products that deliver exceptional results. Environ’s Gold award underscores its position as a leader in scientifically formulated skincare and its dedication to creating a world where beautiful skin is the norm, not the exception.
