What Does It Actually Take to Become Environ Salon of the Year 2026?

What Does It Actually Take to Become Environ Salon of the Year 2026?

When people hear that Touch & Glow has been crowned Environ Salon of the Year 2026, one of the first questions we're asked is:

"How do you actually win something like that?"

It's a fair question.

From the outside, it can look like an award presented on one evening. In reality, it's the result of years of work, continual education and an unwavering commitment to helping clients achieve healthier skin.

Winning Environ Salon of the Year isn't about one treatment, one product or one exceptional month.

It's about consistently delivering the highest standards, every single day.




It Starts Long Before Awards Night

Non of our awards are won in a ballroom. They're earned in our consultation rooms.

Every skin consultation, every treatment plan, every follow-up appointment and every recommendation contributes to the bigger picture.

Long before a client experiences their first facial, we spend time understanding their skin, their concerns, their lifestyle and their goals.

Because great skin rarely comes from one treatment. It comes from having the right plan.

Education Never Stops

One of the things we love most about Environ is that learning never stands still.

Our therapists regularly undertake advanced education through the International Institute for Active Ageing (IIAA), staying up to date with the latest research, treatment protocols and product developments.

The skin is constantly changing.

Science evolves.

Products evolve.

Our knowledge should too.

That commitment to continual learning allows us to confidently recommend treatments and homecare that are tailored to each individual, rather than relying on trends or quick fixes.




It's Never Just About One Product

If you've ever visited Touch & Glow, you'll know that our recommendations almost always begin with Vitamin A.

That's because Environ's Step-Up System is built around introducing Vitamin A gradually, allowing the skin to become comfortable with increasing strengths over time.

For many clients, this journey starts with AVST, a product we recommend every day because it combines both a serum and moisturiser in one, making it a simple and effective foundation for healthy skin.


Rather than constantly switching between the latest skincare trends, our focus is on helping clients build a routine that evolves with their skin over time.

But even the best skincare works best as part of a bigger picture.

Healthy skin isn't achieved through one product or one treatment alone.

It's the combination of the correct homecare routine, professional treatments, ongoing progression and consistency that delivers long-term results.

That's why we recommend a pathway, we never just recommend products for the sake of it. Our goal is to help your skin progress safely and effectively at every stage of its journey.

Every Treatment Is Part of a Bigger Plan

One facial won't transform your skin (one bottle of skincare won't either).

The most rewarding transformations we see happen over months, sometimes years, as clients continue investing in their skin with consistency.

Whether someone visits us with pigmentation, acne, sensitivity or concerns around ageing, we focus on creating a long-term pathway rather than chasing quick wins.

That philosophy sits at the heart of everything Environ stands for and everything we believe in as a clinic.

It's About More Than Treatments

At Touch & Glow, we don't look at skin in isolation.

Our approach combines professional Environ treatments with evidence-based homecare, lifestyle advice and, where appropriate, support from Advanced Nutrition Programme to help nourish the skin from within.


This holistic approach is reflected in the International Institute for Active Ageing's Feed. Fortify. Finish. philosophy, which brings together professional skincare, targeted nutritional support and skin-friendly makeup to support healthy skin from every angle.

  • Feed the skin from within with targeted nutritional support from Advanced Nutrition Programme.

  • Fortify the skin with Environ's Vitamin A-based homecare and professional treatments.

  • Finish with skin-friendly makeup from Et al that enhances healthy skin rather than hiding it.

This joined-up approach allows us to support our clients throughout every stage of their skin journey, rather than focusing on individual treatments or products alone.

Our Clients Are Part of This Award

While the trophy sits in our clinic, this award belongs to more than just our team.

It belongs to every client who trusted us to guide them through their skincare journey.

To those who committed to their homecare.

To those who came back for review appointments.

To those who asked questions, shared their results and recommended us to family and friends.

Without that trust, there is no award.

What This Means for You

Winning Environ Salon of the Year doesn't change how we work.

If anything, it reinforces why we've always done things this way.

You'll still receive honest advice.

You'll still receive personalised recommendations based on your skin rather than what's trending.

You'll still receive treatment plans built around long-term skin health, not quick fixes.

You'll still be supported by a team committed to continual education and delivering the highest standards of care.

The award isn't a finish line.

It's a reflection of the standards we hold ourselves to every day and a promise to continue raising them.
