Founded in 2011 in San Francisco by esthetician Athena Hewett, Monastery is a luxury botanical skincare brand rooted in the holistic healing traditions of her Greek heritage. Hewett, who spent childhood summers in the Cyclades learning about hand-pressed botanical oils from her grandmother, developed the line after noticing that conventional products often exacerbated her clients' skin issues.
