I've thought about something all summer, and I've finally made a decision.

We're stepping back from social media.

We're not disappearing and ETHYST still very much exists, but I'm just no longer willing to build the future of this business around platforms who use AI algorithms to decide whether the people who *asked* to hear from us are actually allowed to.

The internet that allowed small businesses like ETHYST to build and grow is disappearing.

It used to be that if you followed a business, you'd see what they posted. If you searched for something, you'd find it. If a small company made something genuinely different, it had a chance to earn your attention.

Now, AI and algorithms decide what gets surfaced, summarized, flagged, buried, approved, or rejected.

Platforms change the rules overnight.

And independent businesses are expected to keep producing more content, more videos, more photos, more everything... but for what? Only for much of it to never reach the people who chose to follow them in the first place.

Not only is that a ridiculous waste of time as well as stress inducing, it is severely hurting small businesses who are not willing to continue playing (and paying for) the game.

Because eventually, out of sight becomes out of mind.

So I'm opting out of that game as much as I reasonably can.
Because it's not worth it. We want to put our hard work and efforts towards those who are truly interested in what we bring to the table.

Going forward, our independent email list will become the most important way I communicate with the ETHYST community.

That's where I'll share new launches, skin science, Sanctuary Experience news and access, behind-the-scenes stories, and the conversations I think actually matter.

Of course I want ETHYST to survive.

But I don't just want ETHYST to survive.

I don't believe the future should belong exclusively to companies with the biggest advertising budgets or those who increasingly control the algorithms, AI, and billion-dollar platforms through which the rest of us are expected to reach one another.

I want to find out whether independent businesses can still exist because the people who believe in them choose to pay attention somewhere they're still able to.

If you've supported ETHYST over the years, thank you. Truly.

You're the reason we're still here, continuing our mission to change the skincare industry for the better and make skincare safer, simpler, and healthier for all.

Have you noticed you've lost track of your favorite businesses or creators you used to hear from regularly?

I'd genuinely like to know.

A little glimpse of Sanctuary: Twilight Garden. ✨

On Sunday, we gathered in the garden for three hours of flowers, ritual, reflection, curiosity, conversation, and connection.

There were bouquets made, intentions released, letters written to future selves, unexpected conversations, and so many small moments that made the evening exactly what Sanctuary is meant to be: a chance to step outside of the everyday for a little while and experience something created with intention.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and brought the Twilight Garden to life. Missing some people for the group photo, but y'all were with us in spirit.

Until the next Sanctuary. ✨

Today, we step into the Twilight Garden. 🌙✨

Somewhere in Western Massachusetts, a private flower farm and orchard is currently being transformed into a little world of its own.

Flowers to gather, rituals to explore, things hidden among the garden, conversations waiting to happen, curated shopping created just for today.

And a few surprises we haven’t told anyone about.

As the sun begins to fall, one of the most lovely groups of humans will get to wander through it all.

For the one time… and one time only… that Twilight Garden will exist.

Then, it will be a dreamy memory.

Of course, there will be other Sanctuary events, but we’ll never see this one again.

And that’s the beauty of Sanctuary.

If you’re coming, see you soon!

Okay, we need your help with something.
BIG TIME.

You may have noticed that we've been slowly simplifying what you see on the ETHYST website lately.

There's a reason for that.

Google has made it increasingly difficult for small businesses like ours to sell across a bunch of different product categories without it negatively affecting how it understands and ranks the site.

And sadly, it has seriously HARMED us as an overall business.

All the additional beloved things we've offered (and supported over 15 other small businesses through) over the years... room sprays, soaps, body scrubs, bath products, seasonal fun stuff... don't fit neatly into the little box Google would like us to stay in.

So, we've had to make some decisions about what lives in our public shop to ensure that Google's AI understands ETHYST = Facial Skincare

But we don't want to stop offering the things you love.

So we've been working on a way to create a separate little Sanctuary Collection for our existing customer community... a place where you'll still be able to find some of those longtime favorites, seasonal products, small-batch things, and other products that won't live in our regular public shop anymore.

And before we decide what goes into it, we want to hear from YOU.

What do you actually want us to bring back or keep making?

Room sprays?
Sugar scrubs?
Soaps?
Bath products?
Body products?

And get specific with us... What scents do you miss? What product did you love? What's the thing you've been secretly annoyed that you can't buy anymore?

Tell us in the comments.

We're putting the Sanctuary Collection together now, and we'd much rather fill it with the things you actually want than guess.

This is your chance to put in a request 🥰✨

Okay, this is the last call.

Sanctuary: Twilight Garden happens Sunday.

If you thought the last Sanctuary was amazing, just imagine what happens when we step out of a shop and onto a private flower farm and orchard... transformed into a beautiful, unexpected little world for one late-summer afternoon at twilight.

Every guest will leave with flowers they picked and assembled, a gorgeous golden hour portrait, over $250 in gifts, discoveries, creations they made themselves, and at least a couple things they did not even know were coming.

If you’ve been watching Sanctuary from the sidelines thinking "I should go to one of these someday..."

Well, friend, someday is Sunday.
August 30th from 4-7pm.

Ticket sales close tonight at 11:59 pm EST

Sanctuary: Twilight Garden is this Sunday.

A private flower farm. Golden hour portraits. Botanical drinks. Hand-tied bouquets. Little rituals, hidden moments, and a few things I’m still not telling you about.

This isn’t a market or a workshop. And it definitely isn’t an afternoon of standing around trying to figure out what you’re supposed to be doing.

It’s a few hours intentionally designed for you to wander, make things, discover things, meet interesting people, and leave with considerably more than you arrived with.

We’re in the final days before Sanctuary, and there are still a few places available.

If you’ve been thinking about coming, this is your sign to stop thinking about it. More details below 👇🏽
