Our Story: A Legacy of Care
At Gravel & Silk Emporium, every product is inspired by a legacy of handcrafted care. Our founder, Carey Riddles, grew up in Texas watching her grandmother make skincare from scratch—beeswax, herbs, oils, and love stirred into every jar. Those quiet moments planted a seed that grew into a philosophy: that skincare should be simple, intentional, and emotionally restorative.
Now, as a mother of three and seasoned traveler with four dachshunds in tow, Carey brings that same spirit to every formula. From our balm blends to our shower steamers, each product is crafted to evoke memory, comfort, and strength.
This isn’t about changing who you are. It’s about honoring who you’ve always been.
Our Ingredients: Nature's Finest
We believe you should recognize every ingredient on the label. We use grass-fed tallow, rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K that are bioavailable to your skin. This is blended with cold-pressed oils, carefully selected for their purity, to deliver hydration and antioxidants.
No artificial fragrances. No fillers. No synthetics. Ever.
Crafted, Not Manufactured
We are not a factory. We are a homestead workshop—a place where tradition meets intention. Every balm, every batch, is made in small batches of just 25 or 50 units. Why? Because quality should never be rushed. This is our promise of products that are authentic, trustworthy, and made just for you. Each jar is a reflection of our values—slow beauty, honest ingredients, and the kind of care you can feel in every swipe.
Our Products: Balm with Purpose
Our Phase 1 launch is focused on rich, restorative, anhydrous formulas. These are the essentials—crafted to moisturize, soothe, and protect.
