SANCTA
[ from the latin word sanctum ] a sacred or holy place
SOLIS
[ latin ] of the sun
The inception of Sancta Solis began with three women who love oil: a ceramics studio owner, a skincare expert, and a graphic designer. Two sisters from Australia and their long-term, London-based friend practiced self-massage in various forms, including abhyanga with warm oil and Gua Sha for the face and body. They all recognised the importance of forming a ritual practice, not only to experience the numerous health benefits—such as improved circulation and tension relief—but also to connect with themselves and their minds daily, regardless of how limited their time or space might feel.
Enter SANCTA SOLIS.
Years later, it felt required in our own lives, and the moment landed - we knew we wanted to create a space to encourage people to build their own sanctuary and enjoy that solo moment.
We’ve combined our skills and created a deeply nourishing body oil we felt would enhance this declaration, pull you into the moment and make this time (however long) a little more sacred. Coupled with our bian stone body gua sha tool, the ultimate duo to give back to your mind and body.
Sancta Solis is about creating rituals to wind down in your own space, it’s spending mindful time on yourself and knowing you are worth taking a moment.
We hope you enjoy our creations and the many benefits they deliver for the body and mind. Sancta Solis is an invitation to spend more time with yourself and enjoy every moment in the process.
With Love
