About Cilloya

The Cilloya Story

Cilloya began with a desire to care for the people Gleneice loves. After seeing her husband and daughter struggle with very dry skin, she began learning about natural butters and nourishing oils such as shea butter, grapeseed, jojoba, and almond oil. Her first attempts at making whipped shea butter started more than a decade ago. Through patience, research, and plenty of trial and error, she developed products that made everyday body care feel both effective and comforting.

Over time, that personal interest grew into a collection of handcrafted body care, bath, and home fragrance products. In May 2023, Cilloya officially launched as a business centered on creating sensory self-care experiences that encouraged women to slow down and care for themselves.

As the brand evolved, Gleneice recognized that the women Cilloya served needed more than products. Many were capable, dependable women who spent their lives caring for families, managing careers, supporting friends, and carrying responsibilities that often left little room for their own needs. A body oil, bath blend, or calming home fragrance could create a meaningful moment of relief—but the deeper need involved guilt, boundaries, emotional labor, burnout, and the belief that caring for themselves had to wait.

That realization led Cilloya to grow from a body care brand into a Christ-centered, coaching-first self-care ecosystem. Today, Cilloya combines honest conversations, practical resources, boundaries coaching, and sensory care experiences to support the woman everyone depends on.

The products remain an important part of the brand, but they now support a larger purpose. Cilloya is not simply helping women create softer skin or more peaceful spaces. It is helping them build a softer, healthier way of living—one where rest, support, boundaries, and care can be integrated into the lives they already have.
