Alternatives to Ava Estelle and Plantmade in 2025: Discover Mila Foy’s Signature Solutions

By Dr Ossom, July 2025

What happened to Ava Estelle and Plantmade?

Recently, two beloved beauty brands Ava Estelle and Plantmade, had many customers searching online for answers like "Ava Estelle refund" and "Plantmade shutdown." Public records confirm Ava Estell Ltd is officially in liquidation as of June 2025. Although Plantmade’s updates are less documented, enthusiastic customers report discontinued operations and sudden closure alerts.

📰 Searches like “why did Ava Estelle close” and “Plantmade alternative” are surging. That’s where Mila Foy steps in.

Why Mila Foy is the trusted choice for formerly Ava Estelle & Plantmade fans

We know you're searching for answers many are Googling “why did Ava Estelle close”, “Plantmade refund”, or “Ava Estelle alternative”. The facts are simple: Ava Estell Ltd entered voluntary liquidation in June 2025, and Plantmade appears to have quietened down around the same time. This has left many people without updates, items, or refunds and understandably worried.
