Our Origin
MAE was born in Oregon Wine Country, a place rooted in humility, hard work, and a deep respect for the land. Surrounded by vineyards, farms, and generations of agricultural tradition, we are inspired by the belief that exceptional things take time. From the growers who carefully cultivate botanicals to the hands that bring each product to life, we partner with people who share our commitment to quality, intention, and thoughtful craftsmanship.
At the heart of MAE is a belief that the products we use every day should be as beautiful as they are meaningful. Each blend is created with carefully selected botanicals and pure essential oils, inspired by the natural world rather than synthetic fragrance. Hand-batched in our Oregon studio, every product reflects our dedication to intentional ingredients, timeless design, and everyday rituals made better.
From our cold process soaps that cure for six weeks to our hand-poured soy candles and apothecary essentials, MAE is an invitation to slow down, choose thoughtfully, and experience the beauty of nature in your everyday moments.

Meet Jenn Engelman, guiding MAE's thoughtful growth.
Jenn's journey to MAE began with a simple belief: the products we use every day should be beautiful, thoughtfully made, and created with ingredients we can trust. With a background in marketing, she saw firsthand how often “clean” was used as a selling point rather than a true commitment to better formulations. MAE was created to put integrity, transparency, and exceptional ingredients at the center of every product.
As a mom, Jenn understands that every decision we make impacts our bodies, our homes, our communities, and the environment around us. This belief guides every aspect of MAE, from thoughtfully selecting botanicals and essential oils to creating products that are vegan, cruelty-free, and free from synthetic fragrances and artificial ingredients.
MAE is more than an apothecary. It is an invitation to slow down, choose better, and surround yourself with products made with purpose.
