Counter A.G.E. Balancing Serum

Circadia Counter A.G.E. Balancing Serum

Target the aging process most skincare never addresses. Glycation — the process by which sugar molecules bond to and break down collagen and elastin — is one of the most significant and least discussed drivers of premature skin aging. The visible results are unmistakable: deepening smile lines, loss of firmness, and a dull, sallow complexion that no amount of hydration can fix. The Counter A.G.E. Balancing Serum was specifically formulated to combat glycation at the source — delivering a concentrated blend of anti-glycation actives, antioxidants, and collagen-supporting ingredients that keep skin firm, smooth, and radiant from the inside out.

Key Actives & What They Do:

• L-Carnosine — a powerful naturally occurring dipeptide with proven anti-glycation and transglycation properties that directly prevents the sugar-induced breakdown of collagen and elastin — maintaining structural integrity and skin firmness
• DermalRx LuShield (Osmanthus Fragrans Flower Extract) — detoxifies the skin from glycating agents and oxidants, protects biomolecules from glycation-induced inflammation, and prevents cell loss caused by A.G.E.s
• dGlyage (Tripeptide-9 Citrulline) — reduces DNA damage from glycation-related oxidative reactions and inhibits metal-mediated A.G.E. formation for comprehensive molecular-level glycation protection
• Edelweiss Extract — exceptionally high in leontopodic acids and chlorogenic acid, delivering powerful antioxidant protection against the environmental stressors that accelerate glycation
• Derm SRC PF (Bamboo Silica, Pea Extract & Glucosamine) — a synergistic complex that increases the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid to actively rebuild what glycation breaks down
• Niacinamide — reduces inflammation, improves overall skin texture, and supports a more even, radiant complexion
• D-Ribose — energizes skin cells and promotes faster, more efficient cell renewal

Key Benefits:

• Prevents the breakdown of collagen and elastin through anti-glycation protection
• Improves firmness, elasticity, and overall skin radiance
• Targets visible signs of glycation including smile-line wrinkles and loss of structure
• Rebuilds collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid synthesis
• Delivers comprehensive antioxidant protection against environmental aging
• Energizes skin cells and promotes cell renewal with D-Ribose

0.5 oz

How To Use: Apply several drops to clean skin morning and evening. Gently massage into face and neck until fully absorbed. Follow with moisturizer and SPF during the day. For optimal results pair with Glyco-Guard Balancing Lotion both morning and evening.

Best For: All skin types — especially aging and prematurely aging skin dealing with loss of firmness, deepening expression lines, and the visible signs of glycation-related collagen breakdown

✨ Pro tip: Counter A.G.E. and Glyco-Guard are designed to work as a system — the serum delivers concentrated anti-glycation actives that penetrate deeply while the lotion seals them in and provides additional surface-level protection. Using both together morning and evening creates a comprehensive anti-glycation protocol that addresses this underserved aging pathway from every angle.
