Yes, it does! While everyone’s skin is different, has different needs and is depleted in different ways, Adamia Therapeutic Repair Lotion works for almost everyone. That’s because unlike ordinary lotions, Adamia is formulated with 7 different healing moisturizers to meet a broader range of skin needs and tough skin problems than most.

Adamia is also formulated with pure Macadamia Oil, dubbed Australia’s “superfood for your skin”. Not only does it contain vital skin proteins, lipids, vitamins and antioxidants, but Macadamia Oil also mimics our own skin's natural oil enabling exceptional absorption, delivering deep hydration and nourishing skin benefits all without leaving a greasy residue or the uncomfortable feeling of being weighed down. 

As a result, the majority of our customers experience amazing results, as evidenced by our customer loyalty, unsolicited testimonials, and over 12,329 “5 Star” reviews!

Glad you ask! The primary reason Adamia is often more expensive is the quality and therapeutic levels of the ingredients we use in our formulas. For example, every Adamia product is formulated with cold-pressed Macadamia nut seed oil sustainably grown in Australia. The magic of this native plant-based oil for holistic skin health and wellness, we believe, is unlike any other! 

Another point of difference is that we insist our Australian Macadamia Oil is cold pressed. Most experts agree cold pressed is the optimal method to extract oil from the nut to retain the most nutrients and beneficial properties.

While cold-pressed Macadamia Oil also costs more, this high standard ensures there are no unwanted solvent residues in the oil (common with other oil extraction processes) and avoids the need for the oil to undergo unnecessary refinement, bleaching, or deodorizing. This is a particularly important characteristic for those living with sensitive skin.

Finally, unlike mass-produced skincare brands, we produce Adamia products in relatively small batches to help ensure potency and effectiveness of our formulas.

While there aren't many, it's true some online or boutique lotion brands currently sell body lotions that contains Macadamia Oil for as much as $50 a bottle! And if that wasn't insult enough, the bottle is almost 40% smaller than ours!

While we can't speak to their profit motives or product costs, know that we don't cut corners, rather we are obsessed with being good stewards of our resources with the intent to deliver meaningful consumer value at every opportunity. Similarly, we are confident the quality of our cold-pressed pure Macadamia Oil is second to none, as it is sourced directly from Australia.

Another great question, especially if you want to tell your best friend or neighbor about it, right?

Adamia the brand name is taken from the word Macadamia and means "made of the earth." Thus, to pronounce Adamia, simply drop the "mac" from macadamia or phonically pronounce "uh"+ "DAY + "mee"+ "uh."

Adamia has only been available in the US direct to consumers for about 10 years, so don't feel bad. Adamia was initially launched in the US within the medical supply / healthcare industry where it found success helping to address the unique skincare needs of people in hospitals and assisted-living facilities. Today Adamia is sold in select drug stores, on Amazon and of course, on this website. The brand continues to be led by a true visionary and humanitarian who is deeply committed to delivering goods, services, and community-based assets that enhance health outcomes, elevate wellness & enable people to thrive in their daily lives & strengthen their community.

Yes! Adamia products can be used on the face. Adamia products are dermatologist tested, formulated for sensitive skin, and non-allergenic. However, when applying to the face avoid application around the eyes.

While both formulas provide intensive moisturization and therapeutic levels of pure Macadamia Oil, the Lotion is more spreadable while the Hand Cream is thicker and more occlusive to help protect against moisture loss and the drying effects of working with and washing your hands.

 While both formulas provide intensive moisturization and therapeutic levels of pure Macadamia Oil, the Lotion is more spreadable for everyday use while the Foot  Cream contains Bromelain, a natural enzyme found in pineapples. Few realize that this small but mighty enzyme is nature’s secret when it comes to bringing feet back to life! It helps soothe tired achy feet, it penetrates tough foot skin to exfoliate, and it works to recondition dry rough skin all at the same time!

Oxidative stress is a primary culprit leading to the formation of wrinkles and other visible signs of aging including dark spots on the skin.  Research has shown that antioxidants play a vital role in neutralizing harmful free radicals and reducing oxidative damage to skin cells. 

Fortunately for us, every Adamia skincare product is loaded with pure cold-pressed Macadamia Oil. Macadamia nut oil contains a surprising number of essential bioactive macronutrients (proteins & fats), micronutrients (vitamins & minerals) and antioxidants to help diminish visible signs of aging. Macadamia Oil also contains Vitamin E (both tocotrienol and tocopherol) which are natural antioxidants to help reduce oxidative stress of the skin. It contains squalene which also acts as an antioxidant to further benefits cell regeneration and help protect the skin from UV-induced lipid damage.

Adamia products are indeed formulated to deeply nourish, repair and hydrate, which in turn improves the appearance of aging skin. Macadamia Oil including some of its bioactive compounds like Vitamin E (nature’s antioxidant superhero), have been broadly studied in independent research and were found to help minimize and even reduce the appearance of fine lines with consistent use.

Yes, it does! Adamia Therapeutic Repair Lotion works to help strengthen and fortify your skin’s protective barrier. The presence and abundance of pure Macadamia Oil in our formula is the secret it works so well! That’s because it’s naturally rich in bio-active lipids like Omega-3, Omega-6, and Omega-7, oleic and palmitoleic acids, antioxidants, and beneficial skin vitamins which together work in perfect harmony to help restore skin’s structure, elasticity, and resilience with continued use.

Yes, it will! Adamia Therapeutic Repair Lotion was originally introduced in the US in the Healthcare industry based on clinical studies conducted in Australia within  skilled care and assisted living communities. The findings of these studies supported a protocol that included Adamia to help reduce the incidence & severity of skin tears and in doing so, helped improve skin integrity & resilience.

That’s a great question and we know others share your concern. While both xenoestrogens and phytoestrogens are numerous in our everyday environments and research suggests capable of contributing to estrogen activity, we are proud to share that Adamia formulas are paraben free, petroleum free, fragrance free, and phthalates free!  In addition, our ingredients are non-GMO, gluten free, vegan and cruelty free!

In instances of disease management including Shingles, always contact your health care provider directly if you suspect or are experiencing symptoms associated with shingles.
