Two years in development and built on a singular conviction — that radiance is not a surface correction, it is a cellular event. The Advanced Vitamin C + Multi-Peptides Serum was engineered from the inside out, combining the most stable and bioavailable forms of vitamin C with stem cell exosome technology, a targeted multi-peptide complex, and African Botanics' signature bio-adaptive renewal matrix to deliver something the category rarely achieves: visibly brighter, firmer, and more vital skin from a single daily treatment.

At the heart of the formula is a proprietary micro-encapsulation system that carries THD Ascorbate and Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid — two complementary forms of stabilized vitamin C at 20% — past the skin barrier to the deeper dermal layers where collagen synthesis and renewal occur. Here they work in synergy with five signal peptides, a neuropeptide, Citrus Stem Cells, Superoxide Dismutase, and Ferulic Acid — a precisely layered antioxidant and regenerative architecture that addresses dullness, uneven tone, and early loss of firmness progressively and with compounding effect.

What sets it apart is the seamless union of biotechnology and bio-adaptive botanical intelligence — African Botanics' defining approach to formulation. Fragrance-free, suitable for all skin types including sensitive, and designed to integrate effortlessly into any regimen. Skin that doesn't just look brighter — skin that is genuinely performing better.

About The Product

Lightweight yet deeply active, this serum instantly illuminates the skin while helping to smooth texture, strengthen the skin barrier, and preserve youthful radiance over time.

Why this is different?
