Aveda Advanced Botanical Kinetics Vitality Serum — 1 fl oz, plant-derived hydration & visible firming

Aveda Advanced Botanical Kinetics Vitality Serum is a lightweight, plant-derived face serum designed to visibly smooth fine lines, boost elasticity, and hydrate skin with phytotech vegan collagen.

This concentrated serum blends plant-sourced ingredients with a vitamin and peptide complex to help refresh skin texture and appearance. Formulated for all skin types — including sensitive skin — it layers easily under moisturizers and makeup. A citrus-herbal aroma of grapefruit, geranium, and mandarin provides an uplifting scent that complements daily skincare routines.

How quickly will I see results with this serum?

Some users notice immediate improvements in surface radiance and smoothness after a single application, while more durable changes in fine lines and firmness appear with consistent use. Clinical testing indicates prompt surface effects in a subset of participants, with continued benefits when applied morning and night.

• Visible surface radiance and smoothness reported after one use in clinical testing
• Designed for twice‑daily application before moisturizer
• Longer-term improvements expected with ongoing use as part of a regimen

What ingredients make this serum effective for plumping and elasticity?

The formula combines phytotech vegan collagen — plant-derived collagen fragments that mimic skin collagen — with a vitamin C and vegan peptide complex. Those components work together to hydrate, support skin structure appearance, and address visible signs of collagen loss, without animal-sourced collagen.

• Phytotech vegan collagen to add hydration and a plumping effect
• Vitamin C paired with a vegan peptide complex for visible skin texture support
• Lightweight base that layers under creams and SPF

Is this serum suitable for sensitive or post-procedure skin?

The formula is dermatologist-tested, non-comedogenic, and non-acnegenic, and it's reported safe for use after IPL procedures. Its gentle delivery and plant-forward ingredients are intended to be compatible with a range of skin sensitivities, but patch testing is recommended for extremely reactive skin.

• Dermatologist-tested and non-comedogenic
• Formulated to be safe following IPL treatments per product guidance
• Recommended patch test if you have known ingredient sensitivities

How should I incorporate this serum into my skincare routine?

Apply a few drops to clean skin on face and neck in the morning and at night, before applying your moisturizer or sunscreen. The lightweight texture absorbs quickly, making it easy to add to both minimal and multi-step routines without pilling.

• Use on cleansed skin, morning and evening
• Apply before moisturizer and sunscreen for daytime protection
• Works well under makeup due to a fast-absorbing finish
