Our Story, Values and Mission.

Welcome to the heart of the SYLT Clay Company, where purpose, passion and nature converge to redefine beauty in a way that transcends conventional skincare. Our story begins with a deep-rooted conviction that business should exist in harmony with nature.

SYLT is not just a brand; it is a pledge to contribute to a better world, grounded in the belief that what we apply on our bodies should reflect our dedication to health and sustainability. It’s not just about creating products; it’s about infusing each creation with a sense of purpose and a commitment to positive change.

At the core of my philosophy is the belief that doing good is not just a choice but an undeniable responsibility. This conviction is a driving force behind the vision for the SYLT Clay Company, a business that places paramount importance on the well-being of both people and the planet. Inspired by the remarkable Dr. Syl Corbett, a scientist and world-class athlete who created an athletic balm featuring the healing powers of Canadian glacial clay, served as the catalyst for our skincare line. SYLT was officially born when my close friend Jasmin and I collaborated to create a brand that reflected our shared values and vision for prioritizing self-care using sustainably sourced natural ingredients.

In the pursuit of the right ingredients, our journey led us to the breathtaking landscapes of Vancouver Island, a place where nature's beauty converges with the exceptional qualities of glacial marine clay. This discovery was not only the result of rigorous research but also a deep connection with Glacial Bay Organic Clay, a company that stands shoulder to shoulder with us in our commitment to sustainability, ethical practices, and the well-being of the planet. Their dedication to responsible harvesting, environmentally conscious methods, and care for the local community deeply resonated with us. This partnership has become the foundation of SYLT's approach to skincare, embodying a lifestyle where compassion, kindness, and ethical responsibility guide every decision.

We invite you to join us on this journey towards a healthier and more sustainable future. Together, we can make a meaningful difference, where every skincare routine becomes a conscious choice for a better world.

Ann and Jasmin, Co-Founders
