Environ are a very strong brand in the industry, their high street brand awareness isn't as strong. But the products and treatments speak for themselves, once you get people into and onto an Environ course / products you will have them for a good long time provided you look after them well.

Environ is a professional product in every sense of the word. Skin Doctors can be bought in Boots!!

Also Environ cannot be purchased online, on eBay and they are very upfront that it is purely professional sales only and won't be made available on the highstreet.

thanks so much for your comments, thats knocked skin doctors off my list. Any experience with Natural elements anyone. This is organic range, but havent heard enough about them?

We took Environ on as our second brand and we havent looked back, love it...in fact its our number one brand now for sales. Sorry havent heard of the other brand you mentioned.

 

[leyla]

thanks for your help. Can you say which problem areas its best for? My target areas will be pigmentation and anti-ageing? Any good?

 

[totalbirdbrain]

Its great for those. We've found it really helpful for clients with Rosacea too. Environ is also about improving the health of your skin so suitable for a wide range of people and their Skin Analysis events are a helpful retail tool.

It is specifically anti-ageing skincare, but they've got products in the range that deal with pigmentation aswell. Its good stuff!

hey guys, so much for your help. I was considering using collin paris for the salon, although opening order is quite expensive, furthermore, the retailing the products is very expensive for the customer. Eg. Moisturiser at £49 each....too much i say?

Environ seems like a cost effective and result driven too. Although one niggle has to be the packaging, wasnt drawn to it...?

Any thoughts anyone...

Thanks. xx

Hi ya,
natural elements is a organic skincare range. satinbaby on her uses it, message her and she'll tell you more about it. It doesn't break the bank either.

Hi
i use natural elements and i do find it a very nice product to work with and my clients do like it. It does deliver some lovely results when the client uses the home care as well but what I would say is that it doesn't pack a real wow factor for the end reveal. with this in mind, i too am looking around for a more results driven product that is paraben free and still quite natural so any thoughts on that from any of you geeks out there would be much appreciated, again I have looked at loads of brands but cannot afford to have a massive outlay.

I'm glad to hear that you are looking at Environ, I don't think you can go wrong with this, I have just had a visit with their rep as I have been looking for a new skincare brand as I had Collin, as I explained to you before. I really think this could be a good professional product, I know the packaging is'nt 'pretty' but will give the results that people want. This is not available of QVC, boots, etc. and the start up cost for a well promoted product is only £500, which is brilliant I think.

Hey thanks for your comments. Especially as you have used Collin before and now looking at other skincare range. After so much research, i had narrowed my choice down to 3.
* Collin - top end result driven brand, but large outlay and retail side is too expensive for the customer i feel
* Environ - middle of road brand, result driven, packaging looks like its something from a chemist!! But reasonable initial outlay
* Natual Elements - very cost effective, packaging is ok, smells the part but slightly concerned on the result factor, being 100% organic slightly dubious on results?

The other was dermalogica, but dont really want to go for this as its the most popular and a salon down the road uses and customers can purchase products online from almost anywhere??

Any comments from you lovely people out there is greatly appreciated.

Environ everytime, fantastic results, value for money and excellent company support.
Every thing is backed up by lengthy clinical trials, delivering results every time, our clients would never use anything else.
Also small opening order value

With regard to price it's very important not to close your client's purse before they've even opened it.
SwissDermyl is a high end brand with prices to match and nobody misses a beat at the checkout. People want results, and they're prepared to pay for them.

Hi
I just wanted to let you know about Cetuem, I too had Environ, and Natural Elements on my top 3 and went with Cetuem. Cetuem | Retail
My clients love the results and the products do what they say. Its a great skincare range for Acne, Pigmentation, Ageing, & Sensitive skins. The training is good and the opening order value is around £250.00.

Thank you Claire. I saw this brandin a salon a while back and couldnt remember the name even after many google searches!!! Its a London brand, and as im opening London, it may be a good idea? Does this brand work for Asian skin, infact does anyone know about Environ working best on Asian skin?

Thanks
