Sigrid’s journey into skincare began not in a lab, but in the woods of Killaloe and Wilno, Ontario, where she was raised among wildflowers, forests, and old herbal traditions. But it wasn’t until a life-altering car accident at 23 that she discovered the true power of plants. Her skin was badly damaged—and nothing conventional helped. Then someone introduced her to a comfrey salve.

That salve changed everything.

Comfrey, known in traditional herbalism as “knitbone,” contains allantoin, which promotes new skin cell growth, and rosmarinic acid, a natural anti-inflammatory and pain reliever. As her skin began to heal, Sigrid didn’t just recover—she became inspired. She learned to make her own comfrey healing salve, hand-harvesting the plant and infusing it herself. This was the first product she ever made, and it lit a fire that would become her life’s work.

In 2003, she founded Sigrid Naturals, blending wildcrafted herbs, handmade methods, and local love into a skincare line rooted in healing and creativity.
