Molly Watman and Emma Graves joined forces to open their Brooklyn's apothecary studio in 2011. They called it, “a place for herbs to live.” Since then, Molly, an artist and graphic designer who started studying herbs after her first child was born, and Emma, a certified herbalist who’s been working in skincare since 1998, have grown their line of all-natural, small-batch products to include a wide assortment of oils, balms, and more for healthy, vibrant skin.

As their business and families grew (they now have five children between them), they invited other talented herbal crafters, herbalists, and aestheticians to train with them and expand their community. By sourcing organic herbs and botanicals as close to home as possible, they’re able to get to know their suppliers’ farms and practices. All of their raw materials are prepared in Brooklyn, and they use everything they make on themselves and their own families. As they grow their line, Molly, Emma, and their team keep three words in mind: gratitude, compassion, and generosity.
