Active Essence Vitamin Serum

A botanical vitamin serum designed to brighten, hydrate and enhance your skin’s natural renewal process. This unique formula brings together a highly stable form of Vitamin C, niacinamide (Vitamin B3), pure aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, nourishing botanical oils and calming aromatic plants that leave your skin feeling luminous, balanced and alive.

Active Essence is a silky, emollient serum that absorbs quickly without leaving a heavy residue. Designed for daily use, it helps support the appearance of brighter, smoother, more even-toned complexion while delivering antioxidant protection and lasting nourishment.

HOW TO USE
Shake well before use. After cleansing, apply 1–2 pumps to the face and neck. Gently massage into the skin, allowing the serum to fully absorb. For best results, use morning and evening.

For an extra dewy application, mist the skin first with one of our seasonal hydrosols and apply the serum while the skin is still slightly damp.

PROTIP: For an extra boost of overnight nourishment, blend 1 pump of serum with a small dollop of Zen Cream in your hand and gently massage into the face and neck before bed.

TARGETED NOURISHMENT

Gently dab a small amount around the eye area for additional nourishment and hydration. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture makes it an exceptional foundation beneath makeup. The skin is left feeling soft, supple and refreshed with a velvety finish.

VITAMINS + BOTANICALS

Vitamin C
We have sourced a highly stable form of Vitamin C for its ability to deliver antioxidant support while remaining gentle and effective. Vitamin C helps protect the skin against oxidative stress and supports collagen synthesis, while helping to brighten and smooth uneven skin tone and restore a naturally radiant complexion.

Niacinamide — Vitamin B3
Niacinamide is a form of Vitamin B3 that works beautifully alongside botanicals. It helps support the skin barrier, improve skin tone, and maintain healthy-looking, hydrated skin. We love it for its ability to nourish without weighing the skin down.

Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule found throughout the body, including in the skin, where it helps attract and hold water. In skincare, it is prized for its ability to support hydration and give the skin a softer, plumper, more supple appearance. Despite its name, hyaluronic acid is not a harsh acid or exfoliant. It is a humectant, meaning it helps draw moisture toward the skin and retain it at the surface. When paired with fresh botanical oils and aloe vera, it can help create skin that feels hydrated, smooth, and dewy.

Pure Aloe Vera
Cooling, hydrating and naturally soothing, aloe vera brings water-rich nourishment to the formula. It helps replenish moisture while providing a gentle botanical base for the skin.

Rose Hip Oil Rosa canina
Rich in naturally occurring essential fatty acids and plant compounds, rose hip oil is a deeply nourishing oil traditionally used to support a soft, supple complexion. Its natural occurring carotenoids and other antioxidants make it a beautiful companion to Vitamin C.

Evening Primrose Oil Oenothera biennis
A nourishing dense oil that is rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid that supports the skin’s moisture barrier. Evening primrose helps leave skin feeling smooth, calm and replenished.
