Your Skin Care Guide
WHAT ARE CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS?
At Circadia, our philosophy of skincare is centered on the body’s circadian rhythms, defending from environmental insult during the day, and stimulating repair mechanisms during sleep. Circadia’s products utilize paraben-free preservative systems, a multitude of cutting-edge ingredient technologies and specialty items for comprehensive treatment of aging skin, pigmentation disorders, acne and rosacea. The company also boasts a clinically evaluated moisturizing pillow case which is an exclusive all-night skin care treatment accessory.
Circadia by Dr. Pugliese has a rich history and bright future. Dr. Pugliese, Circadia’s founder, remains a strong, influential voice in the science of aging skin. Michael Pugliese, Circadia’s CEO, has earned a distinguished reputation as a lecturer in skin science and as an innovator in product formulation.
CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS & THE SKIN
The human body is governed by the Circadian Clock Genes that regulate everything from digestion, body temperature, pH and your body’s ability to protect and repair. The skin is the largest organ of the body and has direct exposure to UV radiation and environmental toxins, the skin has the ability to program its own circadian rhythms. Skincare professionals should be aware of the time of the day when they make an assessment of the skin or prescribe a specific treatment.
FORMULATED BY REKNOWNED EXPERTS
Dr. Pugliese was the first practicing physician to bring the science of skin to the esthetician with his ground-breaking textbook, Advanced Professional Skin Care, published in 1990. Dr. Pugliese provided skin care specialists with new illustrations, accurate medical terminology and introduced the fundamentals of cosmetic chemistry. The popularity of Dr. Pugliese’s scientific articles made him the most sought-after speaker in the skin care industry. As the new millennium began, new discoveries in skin science and the use of active raw materials led Dr. Pugliese to rewrite and re-illustrate his original textbook, and Advanced Professional Skin Care, Medical Edition was published in 2006.
