Monastery, the luxury botanical skincare brand, has presented its Essentials Kit—an indulgent collection designed to hydrate, nourish, and illuminate the skin. With a focus on natural ingredients and mindful formulation, the kit is aimed at enhancing self-care routines, especially during the holiday season. Priced at $150, the Essentials Kit features three of Monastery’s foundational products: 30ml of Rose, 30ml of Gold, and 20ml of Attar, combining to create a complete skincare regimen for a radiant complexion.
By making all products in-house, Monastery ensures the highest quality and adheres to its mission of delivering effective skincare. The carefully curated products are a true reflection of the brand’s dedication to natural ingredients, emphasizing transparency with no alcohols, salts, parabens, sulfates, petroleum products, or fillers of any kind. This approach prioritizes skin health by focusing on the power of natural botanicals rather than relying on synthetic or potentially irritating ingredients.
The Essentials Kit includes three core products that reflect Monastery’s unique approach to skincare. Rose, a lightweight hydrating oil, helps to balance and restore the skin’s natural glow, while Gold, a nourishing serum, delivers deep hydration and supports the skin barrier. Attar, a calming botanical essence, completes the kit by providing a soothing aromatic experience designed to enhance relaxation.
Monastery was founded by Athena Hewett, a master esthetician with over 20 years of experience in the field of natural skincare. The brand was born out of Hewett’s frustration with conventional skincare products that often caused or exacerbated skin issues for her clients. Inspired by her childhood visits to Greece and the time spent with her grandmother gathering herbs and creating natural remedies, Hewett sought to create a skincare line that works with the body rather than against it. Monastery is an homage to her heritage and her lifelong appreciation of nature’s offerings.
Athena, the ancient Greek goddess of wisdom, is featured prominently on Monastery’s seal—a reflection of the brand’s values of craftsmanship and independence. Athena Hewett, along with her team, personally sources, formulates, and tests each product to maintain Monastery’s high standards. As an independently owned beauty company, Monastery remains dedicated to providing authentic, nature-inspired skincare solutions that prioritize quality over quantity.
With the launch of the Essentials Kit, Monastery reaffirms its commitment to luxurious and effective botanical skincare. Designed to promote self-care, the kit offers a simple yet powerful way to nourish the skin, blending traditional healing ingredients with modern expertise. This new collection invites users to embrace the brand’s mission of working in harmony with the skin, delivering a skincare experience that is both indulgent and deeply rooted in nature’s wisdom.
