When it comes to haircare, we often focus on masks, serums and styling. But the real secret to stronger, shinier hair? A healthy scalp. That’s where Act + Acre, part of our premium haircare collection at SkinShop.ie, comes in.
The Forgotten Foundation of Haircare
Your scalp is essentially an extension of the skin on your face, just with more follicles and often, a lot more neglect. Product build-up, stress, pollution and harsh styling can all disrupt the scalp’s delicate ecosystem. The result? Thinning, dull or slow-growing hair.
A clean, balanced scalp sets the stage for healthy hair growth and better absorption of nutrients. That’s why incorporating scalp care essentials into your routine is no longer optional, it’s essential. And when it comes to expert-approved scalp products, SkinShop.ie is your destination for premium haircare in Ireland.
Meet Act + Acre: Haircare That Begins at the Root
Founded by Irish entrepreneur Helen Reavey, a celebrity hairstylist with years of experience behind the scenes at Fashion Weeks and editorial shoots, Act + Acre was born out of frustration with conventional hair products. She wanted something clean, effective and good for both hair and scalp, without the typical silicone build-up or harsh sulphates.
What makes Act + Acre different? Their Cold Processed® method preserves the integrity of the ingredients, meaning each formula delivers maximum nourishment with minimal irritation. It’s a simple, science-led approach to scalp care and you can shop it directly at SkinShop.ie.
