About Northern Roots
Northern Roots started with a simple idea: make products that genuinely earn a place in your routine.
I started creating skincare because I wanted straightforward formulas made with thoughtfully chosen ingredients—products that felt good to use, performed well, and made sense for everyday life.
Today, Northern Roots creates small-batch skin and body care handcrafted in British Columbia.
Every product has to meet the same standard:
If it doesn’t perform, it doesn’t launch.
Made in British Columbia
Northern Roots products are developed and made in British Columbia, giving me hands-on control over the process from formulation to finished product.
I believe customers should know what they’re using, understand what a product is designed for, and feel confident about what they’re putting on their skin.
No unnecessary hype. No pretending one product works the same for everyone. Just thoughtful products made with purpose.
Why Northern Roots Is Different
I’m not interested in adding products just to make the product line bigger.
Every formula needs a reason to exist.
That means testing, listening to customers, improving what isn’t good enough, and being willing to change direction when something doesn’t meet the standard.
Tallow is an important ingredient in several Northern Roots products, but the brand is built around something bigger:
making everyday products people genuinely enjoy using and want to buy again.
Building Northern Roots
One of my biggest mistakes when I first started was building too much of the business in silence.
I was formulating, testing, making batches, buying equipment and learning through mistakes—but almost nobody saw that part.
I’m changing that.
Now I’m sharing more of what it actually takes to build Northern Roots: product development, manufacturing, customer feedback, mistakes, business decisions, sales numbers and the wins along the way.
You’re not just seeing the finished product.
You’re watching Northern Roots grow.
Where We’re Going
Northern Roots is still at the beginning.
My goal is to build a Canadian brand known for straightforward products, transparent ingredients and one thing above everything else:
performance.
I want Northern Roots to become a name people trust because when we put our name on something, we’ve worked to make it worth using.
