Long before Dr. Sabrina became a skincare brand, it was a question asked in thousands of consultation rooms: why isn't there anything designed specifically for this? As an award-winning oculoplastic surgeon on London's Harley Street, Dr. Sabrina spent over two decades studying the most delicate area of the face, the skin around the eyes, and watching patients search in vain for products that actually understood it. That clinical frustration, paired with a deep commitment to formulating for every skin tone, eventually became the foundation of her namesake brand and its patent-pending Kiara Molecule. In this conversation, Dr. Sabrina talks us through the gap she saw in the market, why she believes wellness and medicine don't have to sit in separate worlds, and what she hopes the next decade of periorbital care will look like.

After 15 years inside the mainstream skincare industry, Aly Rahimtoola walked away from the very system he helped build. Not because it wasn't profitable, but because it wasn't honest. Too many women were buying products that were never right for their biology in the first place, sold on hope instead of evidence. That frustration became Bien-Etre, and its flagship innovation, SkinIQ, a biomarker-driven approach that gives skin a measurable score, the same way we track our steps or our sleep. In this conversation, Aly opens up about the moment he knew the beauty industry would never change from within, why your skin might be the most honest health indicator you have, and what it really means to stop fixing your face and start listening to it. This is a conversation about confidence, biology, and what happens when wellness stops being about aspiration and starts being about answers.

Skin burnout is emerging as a modern skincare concern, driven by overuse of actives and disrupted skin rhythms. As the barrier weakens, sensitivity and imbalance follow. Experts now advocate a shift from correction to restoration—simplifying routines, supporting the skin’s natural cycle, and prioritising long-term resilience over quick, visible results.
Most skincare brands ask you to trust the label. Circadia asks you to trust the biology. Built on the science of chronobiology, the study of how the body's natural rhythms govern everything from sleep to cellular repair, Circadia operates on a simple but radical premise: that skin already knows what it needs, and at what time. Made in the USA and backed by over 50 years of skin physiology research, the brand has spent decades quietly building credibility with professionals rather than chasing consumers. We sat down with Jitin Jaggi, Managing Director for the SAMENA region, to understand what that philosophy looks like in practice and why it matters more than ever.
