The Science Behind the Active Cellular Hydration Technology®
When skin becomes dry, it is more prone to sensitivity, lines, and wrinkles, which make the skin look duller and older. Our Active Cellular Hydration Technology helps rehydrate and revitalize skin. It attracts water and retains moisture in the skin's outer layers to reduce the appearance of fine lines and redness. Scientifically formulated in harmony with nature, this exclusive formula combines powerful botanicals with advanced technology, including:
- Cactus extract, a moisture magnet that attracts moisture to the outer layer of skin
- A unique blend of four forms of hyaluronic acid that absorbs up to 1,000 times its weight in water, locking in moisture and forming a reservoir within the skin
- 100% sustainable plant-based squalane that helps build a protective barrier to reduce water loss, sealing in hydration for lasting results
- 100% plant-based lipids to help hold moisture in the skin
- Botanicals from the Youth Complex, including muscadine grape, apple cell extract, Lotus japonicus, and Schisandra chinensis, for additional anti-aging benefits

FAQs
What is a serum and why is it important?
A serum is a lightweight, fast-absorbing skin care product that penetrates deeper into the skin. Serums focus on specific repair and treatment benefits and are formulated to deliver higher concentrations of powerful ingredients to target specific skin concerns for a more intensive effect. Serums are meant to work synergistically with your other skin care products and can be layered with other products, but they should be used prior to more occlusive treatments or moisturizers for optimal results.
What is the difference between the Moisture Activating Serum and the Moisture Lock Day cream?
The Moisture Activating Serum is 10x more concentrated than the Moisture Lock Day Cream and provides an intensive hydration treatment. The Moisture Activating Serum is a light, gel formula that absorbs quickly and is ideal for use before layering other treatment products. The Moisture Lock Day Cream locks in the benefits of your serum treatment, provides additional nourishment, and acts as a barrier to protect skin from the elements throughout the day. The Moisture Lock Day Cream was formulated to layer perfectly under your BB Cream or makeup.
How much product should I be using and how long will it last?
The suggested use is 1 to 1½ pumps for your face. This product is sized for a 60-day use. However, this depends on how much product you use and the area of coverage.
Can I apply Moisture Activating Serum on my neck, décolletage, or hands?
Yes.
When do I use this product in the Advanced Hydration Regimen?
Use after the Toner step and prior to the Moisture Lock Day Cream.
If I'm using this product with the YOUTH® Activating Serum or with the Advanced Anti-Aging Regimen, when would I use it?
Use after the Toner step and prior to YOUTH Activating Serum. Follow with the rest of your skin care regimen.
How often should I use this product?
We recommend using the Serum both morning and night and adjusting based on your skin needs.
Can I use Moisture Activating Serum near the eyes?
Moisture Activating Serum was not formulated for the eye area. We recommend using the YOUTH Restoring Eye Treatment for the delicate eye area.
What results can I expect from this product?
You can expect to experience smoother, softer, and more radiant-looking skin that continues to improve over time. The serum has been clinically proven to increase skin hydration 212%, and 100% of women had measurably more hydrated skin immediately. Increased hydration levels were maintained for 8 hours with one application. Hydrated skin looks and acts younger.
What are the bubbles that I see in the serum?
The droplets in the Serum contain a blend of lightweight, naturally derived, plant-based oils, including 100% plant-based squalane and skin-identical, plant-based lipids, to help seal in hydration and prevent moisture from being lost throughout the day.
Can Moisture Activating Serum be used on oily skin?
Yes. It is a myth that oily skin doesn't need proper hydration. While both Moisture Activating Serum and Moisture Lock Day Cream contain low levels of plant-based oils, these oils are lightweight and skin-compatible oils that are non-comedogenic, so they won't clog pores. The products are specifically formulated to feel lightweight and non-greasy, even for those with oily skin.
Can Moisture Activating Serum be used on acne-prone skin?
Yes. While Moisture Activating Serum contains plant-based oils, it is non-comedogenic, so it won’t clog pores or cause breakouts.

Key Ingredients
Cactus Extract
Derived from the fruits of Opuntia ficus-indica (prickly pear cactus), this extract is a powerful active and bountiful source of antioxidants, polyphenols, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and amino acids.
Hyaluronic Acid
A combination of four kinds of hyaluronic acid rapidly penetrates the epidermis to hydrate skin from the inside, acts as a molecular sponge to hold water in the upper layer of the skin, and forms a protective barrier that holds tight to the skin's surface to reduce water loss.
Squalane
Squalane is a saturated derivative of squalene, which is found naturally in animals, plants, and human sebum. This vegan and ethically sourced squalane is derived from sustainable, non-GMO sugarcane.
MUSCADINE
GRAPE
The muscadine grape, one of nature's rarest, most potent fruits, is native to North Carolina and other parts of the southeastern region of the United States. These large, thick-skinned, and large-seeded grapes grow in small, loose clusters and are often harvested as individual berries. The full spectrum of beneficial polyphenols in the grape includes ellagic acid and ellagitannins, which occur exclusively in the muscadine grape.
LOTUS
JAPONICUS
Lotus japonicus is a wild legume that is distributed across East and Central Asia, including Japan, Korea, and China, extending to West Asia and into Afghanistan. It is a rich source of protein and oil.
