Circadia AquaPorin Hydrating Cream
Circadia AquaPorin Hydrating Cream is a rich, comforting cream built around the skin's own water channels, called aquaporins.
A peptide that targets aquaporin-3 is paired with avocado, olive and macadamia oils, ceramides and grape seed antioxidants. Together they replenish moisture, smooth the look of flaky texture and help the skin hold on to its hydration.
It is a lovely choice for skin that feels tight, chalky or mildly irritated, and for the colder months.
Why we love it
Dry skin needs comfort without heaviness, and this cream manages both. It nourishes like a rich cream, yet it seals in everything you layer beneath it rather than sitting on top. It is the one we reach for when skin feels tight in the colder months.
Benefits
- Helps support the skin's natural hydration within its outer layers
- Plant oils soften and comfort dry, rough-feeling skin
- Helps limit moisture loss through the skin barrier
- Antioxidants help protect skin from daily environmental stress
- Leaves skin supple, smooth and visibly nourished
Best for
Dry, dull or uncomfortable skin
Warm the cream between your fingertips first, then press it in: dry skin takes it in more easily.
How to use
- Morning and evening, after cleansing and serum.
- Apply a pea-sized amount to face and neck.
- Massage gently until absorbed.
- In the morning, follow with sunscreen.
- Avoid contact with eyes.

We reach for this cream when dry or sensitive skin needs comfort without heaviness, and in the colder months when skin feels tight. Layer it over Cyto-Comm Serum or MeriStem Serum so the cream seals in everything beneath it, and finish with Circa-Shield Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 in the morning. If your skin is very dehydrated or reactive, book a consultation and we will help you adjust your routine.
