Our Story
Monsera began in a barber's chair.
I'm Fabio Simbula. Barbering taught me most of what I know about grooming — one client, one hour, one conversation at a time.
Over the years, one thing kept striking me. In the chair, looking after yourself is a ritual: warm towels, good products, a steady hand and time that belongs to you alone. Then my clients walk out the door, and at home that ritual shrinks to whatever was on offer at the supermarket and three rushed minutes in front of the mirror.
Monsera is my answer to that: a small collection of skin and hair care that brings a little of the barber's chair into your own bathroom, so your daily routine feels like a ritual again instead of something cheap and standard.
Mediterranean at heart
My roots are Italian, and I grew up with a simple idea: everyday things deserve care. In the Mediterranean, taking time for yourself isn't vanity — it's just how life is lived. Slower mornings. Things made well. A little attention to detail, every day. That's the feeling behind Monsera.
What's in the collection
Fourteen products in four rituals, all made in the European Union by a certified cosmetics manufacturer:
- Barbershop Ritual — beard oil, face gel, face cream, eye cream and a 2-in-1 wash, made for men.
- Scalp & Hair Revival — rosemary scalp oil and a keratin hair routine.
- Retinol Alternative — a gentler, plant-based trio for fine lines and texture.
- Advanced Serums — exosome & niacinamide, and a prebiotic jelly serum.
How we choose
We don't chase trends, and we don't fill the shop with everything that sells. Before a product joins the collection, it has to pass one simple test: would I use it myself, and would I recommend it to a client in my chair? If the answer is no, it doesn't make it in.
And we tell you exactly what you're buying: the full ingredient list, what the key ingredients actually do in plain words, and how to use each product properly.
What we believe
- Fewer, better things. A routine of three good products beats a shelf of ten mediocre ones.
- Honesty over hype. No miracle claims. Our products won't change your life — they will make a few minutes of your day calmer, sharper and more yours, and that's worth a lot.
- Rituals for everyone. Monsera is for anyone who wants to become the best version of themselves, whatever that looks like for you.
Where we're going
Monsera is still young, and we're building it step by step — from one barber's chair in the Netherlands to bathrooms across Europe, with Spain next. Every order, question and piece of feedback helps shape what comes next.
Thank you for being part of it.
