Skin Renew

Arcadia’s Skin Renew is designed as an Eye and Cuticle cream, but is able to be used as an intense facial moisturiser as well.
It is formulated to give the skin a burst of nutrients, including Vitamins A, C and E, as well as Anti-Oxidants and Essential Fatty Acids which helps to give the cells everything they need for optimal health and collagen production, meaning great skin for you! Designed as an eye cream, this cream may also help reduce the appearance of scars, stretch marks and fine lines and wrinkles. It’s magic also works on the nails, and is a great nail strengthener. It richly feeds, nourishes, and moisturises the skin and may help heal blemishes, rough, scaly, chapped, or damaged skin, and restore smooth suppleness to the skin.
Each ingredient is carefully selected to provide a rich, nourishing cream that can penetrate deep into the cells, and coat them with the Essential Fatty Acids Omega 3 and Omega 6, restoring flexibility and suppleness back to the skin, and promote new cell growth, replacing scar tissue with normal tissue and erasing fine lines and wrinkles.

Dermatitis Defence!

We have developed a special formulation to specifically target contact dermatitis commonly found amongst hairdressers in working salons.  Constant exposure to wet conditions, as well as all the chemicals that go in to hair care products like shampoo, conditioner, dye, bleach etc, mean that hairdresser's hands often fall prey to the awful red, itchy and inflamed skin of contact dermatitis.



Arcadia Professional's Dermatitis Defence contains herbs, oils, minerals and nut butters which have been known to help stop itching, calm inflammation, and heal angry skin rashes, leaving skin clear and nourished.

This fast acting formula is now available from our range.

Hair Taming Serum

If you have frizzy, coarse, unmanageable or damaged hair which has been coloured, chemically processed, or regularly attacked with a heated styling device, then this is the product for you!

ArcadiA's Hair Taming Serum is formulated by a Medical Herbalist and Naturopath and contains a high concentration of Moroccans famous Argan Oil to help tame your hair and control the frizz and fly-aways without leaving your hair feeling greasy or sticky. It also contains a special blend of oils which help keep your hair-style immune from the elements by coating the shaft and stopping the absorption of moisture from the air - a common cause of 'poofy', frizzy hair.

The high quality, all natural ingredients absorb quickly into the hair shaft to intensely moisturise and nourish, and helps to repair any damage to the shaft. It also creates a shield around it which protects the hair shaft from further damage. The Hair Taming Serum protects your hair from heat styling, chemical processing, UV damage, and helps the 'newly coloured look' last longer if you colour your hair.

The special oils also absorb into the hair follicle and scalp quickly and help to heal and regenerate the hair cuticle enabling it to produce soft, healthy, strong and manageable hair that wont break easily, and looks silky smooth.

To obtain the best results, use in conjunction with the Hair Taming Mask!

Directions for use: Best used when hair is wet after washing, but can be used when hair is dry, or after swimming etc. Put a few drops on your palm (between 2-6 depending on hair length) and rub into palm. Scrunch into hair, concentrating first on the ends, then mid-way up the strands, then closer to the scalp. Run hands through hair to try and distribute the oil evenly. If your hair feels oily at all, you will need to use less next time. Only a tiny amount is needed. If your hair is still a little frizzy when dried, simply apply another few drops to dry hair.

Hair Taming Mask

If you have frizzy, unmanageable, damaged hair which has been chemically processed, or regularly attacked with a heated styling device, then this is the product for you!

ArcadiA's moisturising Hair Taming Mask is formulated by a Medical Herbalist and Naturopath to, not only tame your hair and control the frizz and fly-aways after the first use, but, if used over time, will aid in increased growth of silky, thick, healthy, shiny and more manageable hair.

The high quality, all natural oils, butters, and herbs in this Hair Taming Mask absorb quickly into the hair shaft to intensely moisturise, nourish, and repair the damage done to the shaft, and creates a shield around it which protects it from further damage, whether by heated styling devices, pollutants in the air, chemical processes such as perming or colouring, and harsh weather or UV rays from the sun. If chemically coloured, this also helps the shaft to retain the newly dyed colour for longer.

It also absorbs into the hair follicle and scalp quickly which helps to heal and regenerate the hair cuticles producing soft, healthy, strong, manageable hair that wont break easily.

How does it do this?

The oils and butters in this product contain all of the 9 essential fatty acids, and are rich in omega-9 which is shown to be helpful in improving hair strength and health. The fatty acids moisturise the hair and keeps the shaft strong, allowing it to grow longer and thicker, and helps to retain moisture, keeping it healthier.

They are also rich in anti-oxidants in the form of vitamins A and E which are effective free-radical fighters, which help to revive and renew hair damaged by heat, wind, oxidization and chemical processing or over-styling.

A special ingredient also helps stop the hair from absorbing excess moisture from the atmosphere, which stops hair poofing in humid or wet weather.

This mask may also help with eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis of the scalp.

For best results, use in conjunction with the Hair Taming Serum.
