A'kin brings you a collection of naturally inspired skin, hair and body care products, blended in the pristine bushland near beautiful Sydney in Australia. A'kin products are full of the finest quality, nourishing, naturally based ingredients, certified organic where possible, chosen for their purity and therapeutic properties; formulas are ingredient-rich, vegan, 100% natural botanicals and without animal ingredients or animal testing. As pioneers of natural products that genuinely work, A'kin continues to be driven by the same founding principles, including a passion for pure, natural & effective ingredients and a genuine concern about ingredient safety in personal care products.

The Story

A'kin is Australian owned and for 25 years have simply focused on creating natural, safe and effective products so Australian women can be their most beautiful selves naturally. In 1987, Will Evans began manufacturing personal hair and skin care products. Will's vision was to develop pure, effective, luxurious hair and skin care products from natural ingredients. He established the company a small factory in Katoomba in the heart of the Blue Mountains. During this time, Will experimented and refined his formulations until he was satisfied that his products combined the latest in scientific knowledge with the best ingredients nature can supply. A'kin is now owned by the McPherson's Group and with the ever increasing demand for natural and safe products, A'kin has expanded to international markets; today it continues to evolve by launching new innovative products.

The Ingredients

A'kin takes pride in all the natural ingredients they select as well as those ingredients they leave out.
