About Emmila
The name Emmila means “mother of Mila.”
That’s not a concept or a story device—it’s simply who I am.
I’m Amani. I’m a certified aromatherapist, a Bach flower practitioner, and an organic hair and skincare formulator. Before Emmila existed, I spent years studying essential oil chemistry, formulation science, and botanical ingredients because I needed products that were safe, effective, and dependable for my own family. I didn’t find what I was looking for, so I learned how to make it myself.
I don’t formulate casually. I’m trained in aromatherapy and organic formulation, and I work with intention, accuracy, and restraint. Every product I make is built around how skin and hair actually behave—not how a label is supposed to sound.
Why Emmila looks the way it does
Some Emmila products are priced higher than others, and that’s intentional.
Certain formulas rely on rare or costly materials—functional oils, specialized butters, clinical-grade actives, or essential oils that can’t be substituted without changing how the product performs. Those products are made in small batches, often water-free or highly concentrated, and they cost more to produce.
Other products are more accessible because they use simpler structures, fewer rare inputs, or are designed for everyday use. I don’t believe everything needs to be expensive—but I also won’t lower the quality of a formula just to reach a price point.
The pricing reflects the ingredients, the concentration, and the work involved—nothing more, nothing less.
What I make
I create organic hair, skin, and body products that are handcrafted in small batches. I use essential oils when they serve a real purpose, not as decoration. I incorporate Bach flower remedies when emotional support is relevant. I use clinical actives carefully and sparingly, when they genuinely improve the formula.
These are not mass-produced products. They’re made one batch at a time, by me.
Where to find Emmila
Emmila is available online through this website.
You can also find my creations in person at my physical display inside Salt & Sugar Café in Ballard, Seattle, where you can see the textures, smell the formulas, and ask questions when I'm present there.
Emmila exists because I needed it to exist.
The name reflects responsibility, care, and honesty—values I don’t separate from formulation.
