A’Ferreira was not created in a laboratory. It was born from resilience, devotion, and an unwavering belief in the power of nature.

The journey of Sandra Mihailova began when she moved from England to Brazil, where her youngest son was born.

Sandra had always experienced very dry, sensitive skin and psoriasis, and struggled to find skincare that truly worked for her. Over time, she moved away from harsh synthetics and unnecessary fragrance, and toward simplicity and gentleness.

In Brazil, surrounded by an extraordinary natural world, Sandra discovered the quiet power of plants and raw ingredients and how they can support the skin when used with intention.

Returning to England, Sandra experienced again how quickly skin can become stressed by environment, lifestyle, and working nights. That became a turning point.

She began formulating her own skincare and trained in skincare formulation, focusing on mature, aging, dull, dehydrated, and stressed skin. Today, Sandra’s work is rooted in that journey — creating gentle, considered skincare designed to truly support the skin.
