Rytual

Adrift and unsure of herself, Marnie Sellick lands a coveted job at rytuał cosmetica, the mysterious cult beauty brand everyone wants to work for. Its magnetic founder and CEO, Luna Peters, singles Marnie out almost at once, and Marnie is quickly intoxicated by the glossy, millennial-pink life that Luna and the company seem to promise.

But behind the wellness slogans and curated perfection, Luna holds a cult-like grip over her all-female staff — and the brand's famous weekly Friday Night Drinks conceal something far darker. As Marnie is drawn deeper into the company's inner circle, she begins to see the cracks, and to wonder exactly what role Luna has cast her in.

Chloe Elisabeth Wilson's sharp, darkly funny debut asks what happens when your favourite cult beauty brand turns out to be an actual cult, skewering girlboss culture, toxic workplaces, and the thin line between wellness and control.
