Monastery Flora Botanical Cream Serum
What is it? Flora is a lightweight creamy serum or serum-like emulsion, more lightweight than a cream and creamier than a serum.
Notes from the Curator: Made in a base of Aloe Vera, Flora is a gorgeous moisturizer that is surprisingly nourishing and smells incredible. It brightens (thanks to skin nourishing acids like ximenynic acid, ellagic acid, hyaluronic acid, and phytosterols) and hydrates the skin – probably one of my favorite products from this incredible line.
Let’s get Nerdy: Flora is a blend of luxurious oils rich in ellagic acid. Ellagic acid works to reduce the breakdown of collagen and protects from ultraviolet light. It’s packed with phytosterols, which reduce trans-epidermal water loss, and work to helping to keep skin moisturized.
Key Ingredients:
RASPBERRY SEED OIL – This seed oil is a powerhouse antioxidant. Full of Alpha-linolenic acid (the highest of any fruit seed oil) provides anti-inflammatory benefits. Naturally absorbs UVB and UVC to provide protection from UVA rays.
CLARY SAGE – Regulates sebum production, tones the skin by acting as a mild astringent and reduces inflammation associated with acne.
LAVENDER – Provides antiseptic and anti inflammatory properties which can help heal minor burns and bug bites. Can provide astringent properties to the skin.
Size: 60ml

- About the Brand
Monastery was founded by Athena Hewett. Athena has been a certified esthetician now for 20 years, starting her own skincare studio in San Francisco in 2011. Alongside her practice she introduced a skincare line inspired by her childhood summers in the Greek Cyclades, where her grandparents lived & owned an olive grove. Throughout her childhood, Athena learned from her grandmother & her mother, practices of picking & pressing local herbs & turning nuts into oils. Athena combines her love and understanding of plant-based potions, so ingrained in her upbringing, with her training & practice as an esthetician as well as her meticulous attention to sourcing high quality ingredients, to create her beautiful products for Monastery.
