Ember Wellness was founded by Amanda Schuler, an innovator at heart with a love for design and wellness. Ember is anchored by her passion for natural and alternative therapies and her commitment to creating products that are sustainable, inclusive, cruelty-free, and represent people throughout all stages of their lives.

Before founding Ember, during her search for clean beauty products, Amanda was surprised how so many ‘clean’ skincare products had upwards of 15-50 ingredients. This was what ultimately inspired the Ember Wellness collection; a back-to-basics approach where each product contains a minimal amount of ingredients, only precisely what is needed. All Ember products are purposely crafted with no fillers or water, honoring the skin’s natural barrier.

Schuler comes to the beauty space after co-founding and building the furniture and design brand Gus* Modern for 20 years. After exiting the company in 2020 during the pandemic, she decided to pursue her passion for natural beauty, health, and wellness with the goal of helping individuals feel comfortable in their own skin. Schuler feels that her background in design makes her uniquely positioned to create a brand that marries a minimal aesthetic with transparent ingredient listings.
