The Circadia Glyco-Guard Balancing Lotion takes aim at one of the most underaddressed causes of skin aging: glycation. Glycation occurs when excess sugars bind to collagen and elastin fibers, causing them to stiffen, cross-link, and break down, which leads to visible roughness, enlarged pores, and the loss of firmness often described as an “orange peel” texture. This lotion works to both prevent the formation of advanced glycation end products (A.G.E.s) and address early signs of existing damage, leaving skin smoother, firmer, and more refined with consistent use. It carries a light, delicate floral scent from osmanthus fragrans flower extract.
Key Benefits
Blocks and Reduces Glycation Damage Decarboxy carnosine HCl, a stabilized antiglycation active, helps neutralize the sugar-protein bonds that degrade collagen and elastin over time, reducing the formation of A.G.E.s before they accumulate.
Visibly Firms and Rebuilds the Skin Matrix Palmitoyl tripeptide-38 signals the skin to produce more collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, supporting structural integrity and restoring a firmer, denser feel to the skin.
Smooths Rough, Uneven Texture By targeting the underlying cause of orange peel texture, the lotion works progressively to refine surface irregularities and minimize the appearance of enlarged pores.
Delivers Antioxidant and Environmental Defense Bis ethylhexyl hydroxydimethoxy benzylmalonate provides broad-spectrum antioxidant protection, shielding the skin from oxidative stressors that accelerate glycation and collagen breakdown.
Conditions and Supports the Skin Barrier Panthenol, glycerin, and oryza sativa bran oil work together to maintain moisture balance and keep the skin barrier resilient, so active ingredients can perform at their best.
