Vitamin A and retinol

Vitamin A is one of the most studied skincare ingredients. It supports the skin's natural renewal, helping skin look smoother, firmer and more even. Forms range from gentle retinyl esters to retinol and faster-acting retinal. Start low, two or three evenings a week, build up gradually and wear SPF daily. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your GP first.

AboutVitamin A / Retinol

Vitamin A is one of the most studied ingredients in skincare. It supports skin's natural renewal, helping to smooth the look of fine lines, refine texture, even out tone and keep pores looking clearer. It comes in several forms, from gentle retinyl esters to stronger retinol and retinal, and the skill lies in choosing the right one and building up slowly.

Introducing vitamin A

  • Start low and increase strength or frequency gradually.
  • Use it in the evening and wear SPF every morning.
  • Expect some dryness or flaking at first, and step back if skin feels sore.
  • Avoid strong acids on the same night while you adjust.

Environ is built around this idea. Founded by Dr Des Fernandes, it uses the Vitamin STEP-UP SYSTEM™ to move you gradually through higher levels of vitamin A, starting with the Skin EssentiA AVST moisturisers. Environ is consultation-led: order first, then complete a short skin consultation so our team can approve the right step for you.

If you're pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, speak to your GP or pharmacist before using vitamin A skincare.
