Gem Bébé began out of a mother’s love for her daughter and the memories she wanted to save as keepsakes. After the arrival of her daughter and her reluctance to return to the corporate workplace, Audrey McKinley created Gem Bébé, a collection of home fragrances, in October 2007.

The name of the company is drawn from Audrey’s daughter, Grace, whose initials are “G.E.M.” After becoming a mother, Audrey realized how every child is a gem in a parent’s life and so she created Gem Bébé for all parents to celebrate their own little gems.

Currently, there are two collections of fragrances, the Signature and the Believe, each offering candles, crèmes, soaps, sprays, and mineral crystals. The Signature Collection has 12 different scents symbolic for the twelve months of a baby’s first year of life. Each fragrance is named and inspired by some of the milestones in a baby’s first year and include: First Steps, Babies Breath, and Bath Time. The Believe Collection, was designed to help make a difference as Gem Bébé prides themselves on their mission of giving back! The Royalty Collection is expected to launch soon and was designed for anyone who wants to give themselves the royal treatment.
