Microbiome Moisturizer

Barrier Repair, Microbiome Balance,
and Deep Hydration — In One Cream.

Aqua-Biotic Balancing Moisturizer is Circadia's next-generation water cream designed to address skin health at its biological foundation. Hyafactor-PGA (Sodium Polyglutamate) captures and maintains moisture more effectively than standard hyaluronic acid, improves the appearance of elasticity, protects healthy pH, and creates a silky, protective film that visibly softens fine lines. Biolin/P is a clinically proven natural prebiotic that reinforces the skin's microbiota — the community of beneficial bacteria essential for a resilient, balanced complexion — and has been shown effective for a wide range of severe skin conditions. SK-Influx delivers ceramides, Phytosphingosine, and Cholesterol in ratios that mirror the skin's own lipid barrier, restoring structural integrity, enhancing lipid delivery, and reducing moisture loss. Niacinamide brightens, calms redness, and boosts ceramide synthesis. Allantoin promotes cell renewal and soothes irritation. Panthenol provides deep humectancy and anti-inflammatory support. Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) defends against oxidative stress.
