Deep Hydration Moisturizer

Not Just Hydration —
Biological Moisture Regulation.

AquaPorin Hydrating Cream is Circadia's award-winning moisturizer designed for dry, dehydrated, and compromised skin that needs serious, lasting hydration and barrier repair. Diffuporine (Acetyl Hexapeptide-37) is the star — an advanced peptide that boosts the production of Aquaporin-3, the skin's natural water channel proteins. By stimulating internal moisture movement from the basal layer of the epidermis to the stratum corneum, Diffuporine improves barrier function, supports collagen I synthesis, and promotes cellular proliferation for visibly plumper, more resilient skin. Acqua Bio (Anadenanthera Colubrina Bark Extract) is rich in arabinogalactans, polysaccharides that actively bind water to the skin for sustained long-lasting hydration. The Triple Oil Blend of avocado, olive, and macadamia oils provides emollient softening, antibacterial and collagen-stimulating properties, and palmitoleic acid nourishment that is especially beneficial for dry skin. Grape Seed OPC (Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins) delivers antioxidant protection and stimulates collagen. Vitamin E defends cellular membranes from free radicals. A Ceramide Complex (NP, AP, EOP) restores lipid barrier integrity and prevents moisture loss.

Key Actives

The Science Behind the Cream

Hydration Peptide

Diffuporine

Acetyl Hexapeptide-37 — boosts Aquaporin-3 production to promote internal hydration mechanisms and water movement from the basal layer to the stratum corneum. Improves barrier function, collagen I synthesis, and cellular proliferation.

Water-Binding Complex

Acqua Bio

Anadenanthera Colubrina Bark Extract rich in arabinogalactans — polysaccharides that actively bind water to the skin for sustained, long-lasting hydration that goes beyond surface-level moisture.

Emollient Oils

Triple Oil Blend

Avocado Oil softens and soothes. Olive Oil delivers emollient, antibacterial, and collagen-stimulating benefits. Macadamia Oil provides palmitoleic acid — especially nourishing and beneficial for dry skin.

Antioxidant

Grape Seed OPC

Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins from grape seed extract deliver powerful antioxidant protection while actively stimulating collagen production for firmer, more resilient skin over time.

Barrier Repair

Ceramide Complex

Ceramide NP, AP, and EOP alongside Phytosphingosine and Cholesterol restore the skin's lipid barrier structure, preventing transepidermal water loss and rebuilding integrity in compromised skin.

Cell Defense

Vitamin E & Panthenol

Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) protects cellular membranes from free radical damage. Panthenol provides additional regenerative, soothing hydration support throughout the skin layers.

Benefits

What It Does

Deep Hydration

Stimulates internal water channels with Diffuporine for deep, lasting hydration that works from within.

Barrier Repair

Ceramides, botanical oils, and Acqua Bio rebuild the lipid barrier and lock in moisture to prevent TEWL.

Skin Renewal

Softens, smooths, and revitalizes dry, rough, and compromised skin for a visibly plumper complexion.

Directions

How to Apply

For maximum effect, apply to slightly damp skin after misting or serum application.

1

Cleanse & Apply Serum

Morning and evening, cleanse thoroughly. Apply your targeted Circadia serum and allow to absorb. For extra hydration, mist with Blueberry & White Tea Hydrating Mist before moisturizing.

2

Apply to Face & Neck

Dispense 2–3 pumps onto fingertips. Apply all over the face and neck using gentle upward, circular motions. Avoid contact with eyes.

3

Boost Option

For added hydration, mix with 1–2 drops of Hydralox Facial Oil or layer over your favorite Circadia serum to seal in moisture and maximize the aquaporin effect.

4

Morning: Finish with SPF

In the morning, follow with a broad-spectrum SPF to protect the skin barrier and lock in the hydration work of the formula throughout the day.

FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about AquaPorin Hydrating Cream.

What is Circadia AquaPorin Hydrating Cream used for?

AquaPorin is an award-winning moisturizer that delivers deep, long-lasting hydration while strengthening the skin barrier. Ideal for dry, dehydrated, dull, rough, and compromised skin that needs serious moisture replenishment and barrier repair.

What is Diffuporine and how does it work?

Diffuporine (Acetyl Hexapeptide-37) is an advanced peptide that boosts Aquaporin-3 — the skin's natural water channel proteins — to promote internal hydration mechanisms and water movement from the basal layer to the stratum corneum, improving barrier function, collagen I synthesis, and cellular proliferation.

What are Aquaporins?

Aquaporins are microscopic water channel proteins within skin cells that regulate the flow of moisture from deeper layers to the skin surface. By stimulating Aquaporin-3, Diffuporine helps the skin hydrate itself from within rather than relying solely on surface-level moisture.

What is Acqua Bio?

Acqua Bio (Anadenanthera Colubrina Bark Extract) is rich in arabinogalactans — polysaccharides that bind water to the skin for sustained, long-lasting hydration throughout the day and night.

How do I use AquaPorin Hydrating Cream?

Apply 2–3 pumps to the face and neck morning and evening after cleansing and serums. For added hydration, mix with 1–2 drops of Hydralox Facial Oil or layer over your favorite Circadia serum. Apply to slightly damp skin for maximum effect.

Can this cream be used after professional treatments?

Yes — its barrier-repairing ceramide complex and soothing botanical oils make it ideal for post-treatment recovery after peels, microneedling, or retinol sensitivity, helping to calm and rebuild compromised skin.

Is AquaPorin Hydrating Cream suitable for acne-prone skin?

Yes. While formulated for dry and compromised skin, it is also suitable for dry-acne profiles or skin that has become dehydrated and sensitized from aggressive acne treatments.
