Monastery
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.
