Our Vision
Isola & Théo was founded by brand designer Mamie Ritzel in the ideology that conscious, high performance products should do a world of good. Rich formulas moonlight and replace multi-step routines. Fragrances that recall journeys of past adventures — anchor impressions of the present, and dream of future evocations.
After 20 years in fashion, luxury goods and beauty, Mary "Mamie" Ritzel launches indie beauty and home decor brand, Isola & Théo.
We encourage a minimalist approach
Products made with purpose. Curated, not collected.
Conscious formulations that enliven our senses
Support communities that practice regenerative farming
By choosing fair trade, we are creating the demand for better soil practices. Working with nature, not against it; that uplift communities with fair pay, and create a spirit to build a better future.
Above all, consumables should not live forever
Design every aspect from formulation to vessel. to improve, not just sustain for a healthier future. To leave it better than we found it, and encourage others to follow.
Centered by the harmonious duo
The brand Isola & Théo explores the contrast between a playful and scientific approach to cosmetics, skincare and home fragrance. As an ethical, environmentally focused brand it could all get very serious. Centered in protecting wildlife, domestic and farm animals, the personalities of Isola, an adventurous and clever cat, and Theo, a charming, stalwart dog guide why we do what we do. Protecting every living species right down to the microorganisms in our soil and water to creatures of prey. It guides our ingredient choice first and foremost and the types of products we should be moving towards.
We do not buy ingredients that are tested on animals, and we never will.
