Aveda Hand Relief Renewal Serum — 1.5 fl oz lightweight hand treatment for dry fine lines & visible texture

Aveda Hand Relief Renewal Serum is a lightweight, 97% naturally derived hand treatment serum that hydrates and visibly improves the texture of dry hands.

Formulated with a plant-based hydrating blend and a calming Pure-Fume aroma of orange, lavandin and eucalyptus, this serum targets surface texture and dry fine lines while layering easily under heavier creams. The non-greasy formula absorbs quickly to plump skin and leave hands feeling softer without residue. Designed to fit into a day or bedtime ritual, it pairs especially well with Aveda Hand Relief Moisturizing Creme for added moisture and protection.

How does this serum change the feel and appearance of dry hands?

The serum delivers concentrated hydration that helps smooth the appearance of dry fine lines and uneven texture. Lightweight humectants and plant-derived emollients visibly plump the skin surface so hands look and feel more supple over time. Results are most noticeable when used consistently as part of a layered routine.

• Lightweight, fast-absorbing texture that avoids greasiness
• Hydrating plant blend that visibly plumps and smooths
• Visible texture improvement with regular use
• Pairs with richer creams for overnight restoration

What ingredients are in the formula and what’s omitted?

The formula is 97% naturally derived (per ISO 16128), using plant sources, non-petroleum minerals and water as primary components. It excludes animal-derived ingredients and common synthetic additives, reflecting Aveda’s commitment to cleaner formulations and conscious sourcing. While not an exhaustive list of every botanical, the focus is on hydrating and skin-conditioning plant actives and a Pure-Fume aroma instead of synthetic fragrance.

• 97% naturally derived* base ingredients (plant, mineral, water)
• Free from animal-derived ingredients, mineral oil, parabens, phthalates
• No SLS/SLES, petrolatum, paraffin, synthetic fragrance, or formaldehyde donors
• Pure-Fume aroma featuring orange, lavandin, and eucalyptus essences

How should I use Aveda Hand Relief Renewal Serum in my routine?

Apply the serum to clean, dry hands, massaging until fully absorbed. For daytime use, follow with sunscreen on exposed areas; at night, layer Aveda Hand Relief Moisturizing Creme over the serum to lock in moisture and support overnight renewal. Use consistently for the best visible texture improvements.

• Massage a small amount into clean hands until absorbed
• Layer Hand Relief Moisturizing Creme over serum for extra hydration
• Use morning and/or night depending on dryness levels
• Pair with Foot Relief Moisturizing Creme for head-to-toe care
