When I started my beauty career as a Beauty Assistant for FAIRLADY Magazine in 2010, my first event that I attended happened to be a dinner celebrating Environ’s 20th birthday. It was then that I fell in love with the brand, met Dr Des Fernandes and began to admire his work.
Hearing the Environ team speak and watching a video that showed everything the brand and Dr Des had accomplished over the years blew me away. Now, here we are over a decade later, celebrating this incredible feat; a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Skin Cancer Foundation of South Africa (SCFSA for short) for his significant contributions to the skincare industry, more specifically, the technologies associated with skin rejuvenation, photoprotection, topical antioxidants and vitamins within the industry.
"I am truly humbled to receive this award. My work is and has always been driven by my passion for finding scientific solutions to common skin issues and sharing that knowledge as widely as possible. The skin is the largest organ in the human body and so it's my belief that we should all be united in understanding how it works and should be cared for," says Dr Fernandes.
Bravo, Dr Des. Thank you for everything you’ve done for the skincare industry. I can’t wait to see what you’ll do next!
