ABOUT US

ESSENTIAL

PURE INGREDIENTS Essential oils are the heart of all EAA formulations. These powerful and transformative molecules offer a vast array of health benefits that range from detoxifying to soothing, anti-bacterial to anti-inflammatory, and pain relieving to stimulating. Not to mention, they smell incredible and have a huge effect on our mood via the limbic system.

CRUELTY FREE Our products are made of all-natural, plant-based ingredients, and are 90% organically sourced. Most products are vegan excluding KISS and BEHAVE (beeswax). Pure essential oils have an innate intelligence to restore the body to a state of balance. These alchemical essences are the core of all my formulations.

SUSTAINABLE Our products are packaged with minimal plastic, in easy to recycle amber glass bottles and post-consumer recycled boxes. We're currently working towards growing the majority of our own botanicals on our partner farm Huntermoon Homestead, including roses, lavender, chamomile, and comfrey, as well as distilling hydrosols!

Ingredients not grown on site, are sourced as much as possible from independent farmers, compliant with forestry and sustainable farming techniques.

APOTHECARY

EAA products have been meticulously created with a focus on nourishing the skin and assisting the body to find its natural balance. All batches are hand made to meet our high standards, and have been formulated to be used in a multitude of ways. We encourage you to create your own alchemy, and tailor our products to match your particular skin conditions.

EAA uses no fillers (including water), making all ingredients active agents! It's our attention to these details that sets us apart from every other skin care line on the market.

I have a background in herbalism, nutrition and wellness, it has been a lifelong passion. I have found that wellness comes from living a balanced and intentional life. When I started EAA about 8 years ago there were very few organic skin care and hygiene lines on the market. I think a lot of people have a disconnect between their diets and the products that they put on their skin. I wanted to create products that were as clean and nourishing as the organic foods I was eating. I started to make things just for myself, but I was amazed by how many people were commenting on my skin and telling me how great I always smelled. So, I went public with Essential Apothecary Alchemist, and the feedback has been amazing.

My products are hand made in a small studio with retail offerings in the front. I am very proud of the ingredients in each product, all are active on the skin. I use no junk fillers, including water. I use plant hydrosols, essential oils, and almost every ingredient is plant based. Were possible I purchase locally.
