Active Hydration Vitamin C+ Antioxidant Serum

Active Hydration Vitamin C+ Antioxidant Serum

A daily multivitamin for your skin—engineered to brighten, plump, and protect.

The Active Hydration Vitamin C+ Antioxidant Serum is the hero of the Activist line, acting as a high-performance shield against the trio of dullness, dehydration, and environmental aging. This lightweight, silky serum is powered by a highly bioavailable form of Vitamin C that targets dark spots and uneven tone without the irritation often associated with traditional formulas. By drawing moisture deep into the skin for up to 72 hours, it ensures your complexion remains luminous, firm, and resilient from sunrise to sunset.

Designed to fit effortlessly into any routine, this fast-absorbing formula is free of fragrance and essential oils, making it a safe haven for even the most sensitive or reactive skin types. With a skin-friendly pH of 5.0–5.5, it works in harmony with your biology to promote a complexion that looks awake, healthy, and naturally alive.

The Activist Mission: Where Actives Meet Advocacy

At ACTIVIST, we believe that taking care of yourself is the fuel required to take care of the world. Founded by Allison in 2016 and handmade in California, our brand is built on the pillars of Conscious Capitalism. We reject "greenwashing" in favor of radical transparency, small-batch ethical manufacturing, and a pioneering refillable packaging system.

Self-care is an act of resilience. Our products are designed to replenish your spirit so you can continue the hard work of driving change. We are proud members of 1% For the Planet, meaning at least 1% of every purchase goes directly to environmental and human rights advocacy—supporting organizations like Earthjustice, Rainforest Trust, and the National Immigrant Justice Center. When you choose Activist, your beauty routine directly funds the protection of our democracy and our planet.
