Solyn Studio

Most facials are pre-written.

A brand creates a device.
They hand over a protocol.
And the treatment follows that script.

And that matters.

Because when someone else writes the protocol, the experience is designed to sell a product.

When I create a facial, the experience is designed to create transformation in you.

I follow the script I built.

Every phase is intentional.
When your nervous system drops.
When circulation awakens.
When we lift.
When we integrate.

I design outcomes.

That’s why I trademark my facials.

Because when you come to me, you’re receiving a methodology so distinct, so engineered for change, I chose to legally protect it.

That’s the difference between performing a service…
and architecting a journey your body remembers.

Love a good mocktail!

I’ve been thinking about Martin Luther King Jr. today, and honestly, it feels more important than ever.

His legacy isn’t quotes on a poster, old photos, a long weekend, or lighter traffic. It’s the life of a man who stood up to injustice knowing the cost, and who ultimately paid for that courage with his life.

So today feels like a moment to remember what he actually stood for.

He believed that laws and policies that harm people under the banner of “order” are unjust.

He believed peaceful protest is not a nuisance, but one of the most powerful tools for fixing injustice.

He believed in telling the truth, standing together, applying pressure, protecting human dignity, and repeating the work until real change happens.

That legacy isn’t history.
It’s instruction.

And if he were here now, he’d be where he always was: at the front, standing between injustice and the people it harms.

Three years ago, I came to Kauai and couldn’t feel a thing. I was the saddest I had ever been. The kind of sadness that doesn’t go away just because you’re in paradise. The ocean didn’t soothe me. The sunsets didn’t inspire me. I couldn’t care about seeing turtles through the numbness that encased me.

I spent an entire year like that. Maybe two. I cried. I raged. I barely was. Everything felt dark and foggy, like I was underwater and couldn’t come up for air.

But slowly I came back. And now same island, same sky and all I wanted was to see turtles and smile. I can laugh at the wild chickens strutting around like they own the place. I can stand under a stormy sky and still feel again - really FEEL. And maybe it’s not all sunshine and happiness but it’s closer.

And that doesn’t mean the grief is gone. It still lives with me. But it’s quieter now. Softer. It takes up less space.

So if you’re in a place where everything feels heavy and hopeless, please know this: it won’t always feel that way. Grief comes in waves, but so does healing. Little by little, the fog lifts. The pain doesn’t disappear, but it makes room for beauty again. Room for laughter. For sunsets. For champagne. For turtles. And one day, you’ll find yourself smiling in the rain, too. I know it. 🙏🫶🏼

It’s been a day of loss.

A good friend of mine is dying.

I’m sharing this because when something similar happened back in 2007, I made the mistake of not telling anyone. I thought being a “good business owner” meant keeping my personal pain separate from my work. I thought I could flip a switch between personal Cybil and esthetician Cybil.

I was wrong.

When my friend passed suddenly, I wasn’t myself. Maybe I seemed more distant. Maybe I wasn’t as attentive. I can’t say for sure, it’s been a long time, but I do remember getting more than one email from clients that year telling me they were unhappy with me.

It was a hard lesson: we are our business. What happens to us bleeds into everything we do. We don’t need to overshare, but we do need to let our community, our family, know when we’re carrying something heavy.

So, here I am doing just that.

One of my dear friends, a fellow romance reader of 20 years, is in hospice care. It isn’t gentle. It isn’t pretty. And I’m not okay.

I’m not really in a place to talk about it, but I want you to know that if I don’t seem as bright or as fully present as usual, it’s not because I don’t care. It’s because I care so much, about my friend and about you.

Please know that even if it doesn’t always shine through perfectly right now, I’m giving you my all. Thank you for your extra kindness and patience.

I’m grateful for you.
