Circadia’s Aquaporin Hydrating Cream Named Harper’s BAZAAR 2026 Best of Beauty Winner in the Moisturizer Category
Aquaporin Hydrating Cream recognized for its advanced hydration, barrier-supporting benefits, and ability to comfort dry, flaky, parched, and post-treatment skin.
Circadia is proud to announce that Aquaporin Hydrating Cream has been named a Harper’s BAZAAR 2026 Best of Beauty Award Winner in the moisturizer category.
Harper’s BAZAAR’s 2026 Best of Beauty Awards recognize products that blend the latest innovations in skin care science with proven, potent ingredients to deliver real results. In a beauty landscape increasingly shaped by professional procedures, advanced treatments, and the growing demand for transparent, efficacious skin care, Aquaporin Hydrating Cream stands out as a deeply replenishing moisturizer designed to support skin through dryness, irritation, and visible signs of dehydration.
Originally created to support post-procedure routines, Aquaporin Hydrating Cream helps comfort and replenish skin that may feel dry, flaky, parched, or compromised following laser services, advanced treatments, or in-office procedures. Yet its benefits extend well beyond post-treatment care. With a calming blend of vitamin E, botanical oils, ceramides, and panthenol, this rich moisturizer is an ideal antidote for skin experiencing dryness, environmental stress, sensitivity, or irritation.
“Being recognized by Harper’s BAZAAR is an incredible honor, especially for a product that represents so much of what Circadia stands for,” said Michael Q. Pugliese, CEO of Circadia. “Aquaporin Hydrating Cream was developed to support the skin’s repair function, but its purpose is broader than recovery alone. It is a modern, barrier-supporting moisturizer for skin that needs hydration, comfort, and resilience.”
Aquaporin Hydrating Cream reflects Circadia’s ongoing commitment to creating high-performance formulas that support both professional estheticians and their clients. The formula was designed to help restore moisture, improve the appearance of dry or depleted skin, and support the skin barrier when it needs additional care.
At the center of the formula is Circadia’s focus on intelligent hydration. Aquaporins are essential water channels in the skin that help regulate the movement of water between cells. By supporting the appearance of hydrated, supple, and balanced skin, Aquaporin Hydrating Cream helps address more than surface dryness. It is designed to support skin that looks and feels more comfortable, nourished, and resilient.
The formula features a thoughtful blend of ingredients chosen to support multiple aspects of skin comfort and recovery. Ceramides help reinforce the appearance of a healthy barrier, panthenol conditions and soothes, vitamin E provides antioxidant support, and nourishing botanical oils help soften and replenish the skin. Together, these ingredients create a cushion of comfort for skin that feels dry, tight, or vulnerable.
“This award is especially meaningful because it recognizes the growing importance of professional-grade skin care in today’s beauty conversation,” said Pugliese. “Clients are investing in advanced treatments, but they also need intelligent home care that helps maintain results and hydration between appointments. Aquaporin Hydrating Cream was created for that exact intersection of science, recovery, and daily skin health.”
Circadia’s philosophy is rooted in protecting the skin during the day and supporting repair at night, while honoring the body’s natural circadian rhythms. Aquaporin Hydrating Cream fits seamlessly into that philosophy by helping restore hydration and comfort when the skin needs extra support.
The Harper’s BAZAAR recognition further underscores Circadia’s position as a leader in professional skin care innovation, education, and treatment-driven home care. As the brand continues to expand its presence in luxury spas, professional treatment rooms, and advanced skin care practices around the world, Aquaporin Hydrating Cream stands as a powerful example of science-forward formulation created to meet the needs of modern skin.
Aquaporin Hydrating Cream is available through authorized Circadia professionals.
