Environ Advanced Vitamin Skin Therapy
Facemakers - Winners of the Environ New Zealand Case Study 2008
The cornerstone of Environ treatments is Vitamin A. Extensive medical research and trials have shown that Vitamin A:
- Has a corrective effect on the skin, smoothing, softening and protecting it from the effects of UV radiation and free radicals.
- Normalises the skin
- Promotes the production of healthy collagen and elastin
- Improves the skins natural moisture
- Leads to healthy, younger looking skin.
Environ draws on cutting edge technology, combined with proven botanical and scientific principals to create skincare ranges that address different needs and problems for people of all ages.
Products
The formulations are realistically priced so that they remain accessible to all. They are formulated without artifical colour, fragrance or preservatives.
Treatments
The Ionzyme DF Machine is one of the most effective machine in the world today for enhancing penetration of vitamins into the skin. Vitamins A and C are essential for the maintenance of a healthy and youthful skin. This revolutionary system enhances the penetration of vitamins contained in the Environ skin care products ensuring optimum effective results
The Ionzyme DF machine employs the combination of two highly sophisticated scientific methods:
- Pulsed Iontophoresis to facilitate greater penetration of vitamins into the skin.
- Low Frequency Sonophoresis involves the use of sound waves to transport vitamin molecules through the skin.
Environ is the pioneer in both the use of Low Frequency Sonophoresis and the combination of both methods within one treatment which increases the penetration of the vitamins by 4000%.
DF in Action:
The Results Speak for Themselves:
The Environ Cosmetic ROLL-CIT is the latest revolutionary design from Environ in skin care treatments. The principle behind the Environ Cosmetic ROLL-CIT is that it helps to increase penetration of vitamins and other active ingredients into the skin.
When applied to the surface of the skin, it creates micro channels in the horny layer (surface) of the skin. This layer is the main obstruction to entry into the skin.
Once this layer has been breached, the vitamins A, C, E and beta-carotene contained in the skin care products can reach into the depths of the skin more effectively than by simply applying the products to the surface.
Regular use of the Environ Cosmetic ROLL-CIT when used in conjunction with active recommended Environ skin care products can:
- Contribute towards skin thickening
- Assists in softening fine lines
- Help scarring to become less obvious
- Assists in the disappearance of pigmentation marks
Skin Peeling
In order to enhance the action of home and salon treatments, your therapist may advise a course of Skin Peeling treatments. Some conditions that may be helped by Skin Peeling include:
- Fine, delicate skin with fine lines and poor hydration
- Oily skin, Acneic; Problematic skin
- Photoaged skin, Severe sun damage; Heavy upper lip lines
- Scarring; Elastosis
Maximising the penetration of ingredients like Vitamins A, C and E, anti oxidants, colostrum, retinol and other serum and actives into the skin cells, which in turn eliminate the skins vitamin deficiencies, strengthen the skin immune system and allow our skin cells to function normally and be healthy.
The peeling preparation is responsible for ‘melting’ the glue holding together the dead cells of the protective top layer of the skin. During your peeling treatment, you may feel a prickling or itchy sensation, but it should not be intensely uncomfortable. Your therapist will remain in your treatment room with you at all times to ensure your comfort.
How should I prepare my skin before starting a course of peeling treatments? The first step in preparation for your skin for peeling treatments is your consultation with your therapist. A history of your skin and it’s care will be recorded, including details of your medical history. A homecare routine including daily sun protection will be prescribed. Your skin must be prepared with quality home care plus daily sun protection.
How often will I need to have a peeling treatment? After a consultation and skin analysis, your therapist will recommended a course of peeling treatments either weekly, fortnightly or monthly for a set number of treatments.
When is the best time to have peeling treatments? We generally recommend peeling treatments during the winter, when it is easier to avoid excessive UV exposure. However, even during winter – due to high UVA levels, diligent application of sunscreen is required daily.
How will my skin feel after a peeling treatment? In the first few days after peeling, you may notice some flaking of the skin and there may be a slight tautness to the skin. This will pass within a few days and can be a natural part of the peeling process and you therapist will advise if you are to expect this.
Please discuss with your therapist if a course of peeling treatments would benefit your skin, and how soon you could get started towards a healthier skin.

Joyce Blok
Joyce Blok Natural Skincare is New Zealand’s original professional skincare range. For more than 30 years, they have offered the best quality, natural-source, active products to suit local climatic and skincare needs.
European qualified beauty therapist Joyce Blok led the way for beauty therapy in New Zealand when she established the first local beauty therapy school. Frustrated by a lack of quality professional skincare products, she enlisted the help of experts both here and overseas to create New Zealand’s first professional skincare range.
Her aim was to offer products with high concentration of active, natural-source extracts, such as herbs, essential oils and vitamins to improve the skins conditions. This philosophy lives on today in the professional skincare range that bears the name JOYCE BLOK.
Ella Bache
Ella Bache’s philosophy has always been to recognise that no two skins are alike. Using our products like ingredients we provide individual skin conditions with an ideal skincare recipe. In this way, we are confident that all skin has the opportunity to look and feel healthier. We’ll give clients skin good enough to eat.
The skin is constantly undergoing change... age, diet, stress, hormones and environmental influences are just a few factors that can affect the skin functioning. That’s why Ella Bache created skincare solutions.
Solutions treat different skin conditions, targeting specific skincare concerns. Each solution combines a series of products prescribed to achieve a desired result with the skin.
Mens Skin Care Therapy
Today’s modern lifestyle takes its toll on your skin, exposure to UV radiation, pollution, stress, smoking and over strenuous exercise all contribute to early visible signs of aging.
Men’s skin reacts to these environmental factors differently than a woman’s skin, whilst it is slower to age than a woman’s skin, it will ultimately age more dramatically.
Facemakers offers you a regime that is uncomplicated and caters to all these skin stressors, whilst getting the results needed.
We have two products lines specifically designed for men, Sothys and Environ, plus a selection of in salon treatments.
