Millies Expert Advice from Skincare Expert Edele:

The Skin Essentia line of AVST Moisturisers contains a blend of anti-oxidants A, C & E. These are present in each moisturiser level from 1-5. AVST 2 contains vitamin A in the form of retinyl palmitate (medium strength) and our clients work their way up through the system from 2 bottles of AVST 1 to level 2. AVST 2 contains antioxidants that help strengthen and protect the skin from free radical damage and UV damage. Apply 1-2 pumps to cleansed skin day and night. We recommend using 2 bottles of AVST 2 before progressing onto AVST 3. On your second bottle of AVST 2 we also like to introduce the Environ CIT Roller, this allows for better penetration of active ingredients as you progess on your Environ journey.
