Circadia by Dr Peter T. Pugliese is the most advanced physician formulated range in the USA.  Dr Pugliese is one of the founding fathers of modern skin science in the USA and was the first doctor to professionally measure the penetration of active ingredients into the skin in the 1970’s and developed several of the first specialised measuring tools that are still used today to measure the efficacy of products in the skin.

He is the ‘behind the scenes’ scientist who many professionals have turned to when the going gets tough to reformulate their products, help develop their own highly successful brands with his recommended formulations, or just gain an independent and reliable source of science.

In 2003 he decided to use his accumulated knowledge to develop his own specialized brand and called it Circadia by Dr Pugliese, based on the principles of the Circadian Rhythms for which all creatures upon the earth are infused with in one way or another as part of their survival. To create the best results, he has based his philosophy, products, treatments and skin programmes on this principle. Circadia leads the industry in the utilization of targeted ingredient technologies, a result of a long-standing relationships with raw material suppliers.
