Your skin has its own built-in repair and rejuvenation system. But too many products, even expensive ones, override or irritate this amazingly beautiful and powerful natural system rather than working with it.
Monastery is made to help your skin do what it does best.... Heal.
In the captivating Greek Cyclades, Athena Hewett unearthed the transformative potency of aromatherapy and natural skincare.
Influenced by her grandmother's age-old practices of pressing oil from their grove and concocting tonics with sage, chamomile, and rosemary, Athena embarked on a decade-long exploration into the realms of skincare and esthetics. Having realized that technology had yet to surpass her grandmother's holistic recipes for skin purification and healing, Athena took her passion a step further.
In 2011, she founded a skincare studio in San Francisco, introducing innovative methods like oil cleansing, water-free moisturizing, and alcohol- and salt-free skincare to her clientele. Parallel to her practice, Athena curated a collection of natural skincare products, melding the finest offerings of nature with essential oils selected for their non-irritating properties. Her journey epitomizes a harmonious blend of traditional wisdom, modern innovation, and a deep respect for the healing powers of nature.
