Just in from the Advanced Nutrition Programme collection are the limited edition Skincare Supplement boxes for healthy skin, nourished and strong hair and nails and a brighter complexion.
Seasonal changes bring with them harsher weathers that interact with the largest organ of our body and cause irritation. As the weather get harsher, skin is stripped of its natural moisture and becomes drier. This dryness can cause a build up of dead skin cells in pores clogging them and resulting in acne.
To avoid the harsh, drying effects of the winter season on the skin and to maintain that healthy summer glow through the festive period Debbie Thomas (skin expert) suggests using the autumn period to rejuvenate your skin. Whilst this can be done topically through salon treatments and product, the Advanced Nutrition Programme battles the problem internally to create new healthy cells and combat the issue from the inside out.
Environ, Dr Des, and the Advanced Nutrition Programme
Dr Des Fernandes is a prominent Plastic and Cosmetic surgeon who pioneered the use of Vitamin A in cosmetic products to improve skin health and leave clients feeling radiant. Devised from his treatment of skin cancer patients, Dr Des formulated the Environ Skin Care Range. This combined with the Advanced Nutrition Programme as a two-pronged approach to improving skin health and appearance. These two-prongs include the topical application of Vitamin A through the Environ Skin Range products and through the use of nutritional supplements which internally supply the raw materials that are essential for healthy skin cells. The latest addition to this range being the skincare supplements, which offer a monthly supply of vitamins to rejuvenate hair, skin and nails.
Essential raw materials for skin cells to function normally include: Vitamins A, C, D and E; antioxidants, peptides, carotenoids, minerals, alpha hydroxy acids and more. When we have insufficient amounts of these raw materials we start to see deficits in the skin. Examples of such deficits include: wrinkles, pigmentation, dryness, redness, acne, psoriasis etc. Clinical studies have found that the addition of nutritional supplements to your daily routine can improve skin moisturisation, supporting skin recovery, combating anti-ageing and protection from skin damage (Wood et al, 2016).
The Skincare Supplements Range:
The new and limited edition skincare combination packs offer a month’s supply of these raw materials in the form of nutritional supplements to allow your skin to perform at it’s peak through the colder months. These skincare supplement packs will help rejuvenate your skin and protect it from harsher weather conditions to leave you glowing and radiant throughout the autumn-winter season. They will also help to combat ageing that occurs through the autumn period and will reduce the “autumn shed” when your eyelash extensions start to fall out a little more quickly than they do over summer months.
The new skincare supplements range offers 3 levels of product:
- Skincare Ultimate: a pack of supplements to improve skin health; nourished, strong hair and nails; and a brighter and lighter complexion.
- Skincare Plus: a pack of supplements to improve skin health and to nourish and strengthen hair and nails.
- Skincare Select: a pack of supplements to improve skin health.
Each level is easy to use, simply take the entire contents of one pop out pod with a main meal.
