A small family company, taking its time.
Essentially Arabia was founded by Sam and Mariella right after Covid. We are a small company, and our team are close friends.

Essential oils, and a trip to Kenya
Before this, we worked with essential oils. That work, and a sourcing trip to Kenya, shaped what Essentially Arabia became.
The idea is bigger than one product. We want this to be a place where you can learn how to look after yourself: physically, mentally and professionally.
We share everyday self-care, not medical advice. It never replaces your doctor: keep up with your check-ups and the screenings your doctor recommends.
About check-upsThree things we intend to get right
These are intentions, not achievements yet.
An ethical workplace
We want to build a place where people are treated fairly.
Fair, direct partnerships
We want to work directly with small raw-material suppliers, on terms that are fair to them.
Selling with us should pay properly
We want the people who sell with us to earn properly for it.
Close friends, like family

Our first drink is an electrolyte drink mix. It is still in the making, and it is not on sale yet.
Suppliers, venues and creators
If you supply raw materials, run a venue, or create content, we would like to hear from you.
We built it ourselves. Fanoos Studio makes experiences like this for other brands.
