Modern day life can be fast-paced and demanding. Mental, emotional, and physical stress is inevitable and can reveal itself in many ways – the skin being one of them. Environ’s new Focus Care Youth+ Seriénce™ Night Serum was specifically developed to target the negative long-term effects of stress to uncover serene, luminous and youthful-looking skin.
This advanced overnight booster is the first of its kind and contains the breakthrough formulation, Malachite-Neuropeptide Complex, which is scientifically proven to protect, reset, relax and reconnect the skin from within, cell by cell, night after night.
What is the relationship between stress and skin?
Advances in neuroscience and cosmetic research continue to reveal infinitely more about the complex and fascinating connections between the brain and skin. These discoveries, combined with Environ’s extensive skincare research, have perfectly primed the development of this ground-breaking innovation that builds on an extraordinary scientific legacy to shape the future of beauty for modern day consumers.
What is the body’s instantaneous response to stress?
The skin is an immediate stress perceiver and a main target of stress responses when life’s “overload” triggers both the brain and skin to secrete stress hormones such as cortisol. In the case of prolonged exposure to external and internal stressors (emotional, physical and mental stress, pollution, smoke, sleep deprivation, UV exposure), skin cells don’t stop producing cortisol. Compounded over time, high concentrations of this primary stress hormone has been scientifically shown to compromise immunity and threaten skin barrier functioning which can result in a dull, fatigued appearance and aggravated signs of ageing such as lines, wrinkles and loss of elasticity.
Composition:

The skin speaks for what the mind and body feels. Selfcare in today’s world is essential; it is time to reprioritise and rebalance ourselves.
