Sunshine Coast Daily talks to our Founder Lucy Cloonan
Lucy's idea for a skincare range grows organically

LUCY Cloonan - the name behind James St Organics - has always had a passion for organic living.
As well as sourcing local organic food for her family in Noosa, she had been using natural, organic cream-based moisturisers.
"But I found my skin was always dry and I wasn't sure why,” she said.
"I then did some of my own research and learnt that cream-based moisturisers are like a wax barrier over the skin, leaving it unable to balance its own natural oils.
"So the skin can end up too dry or too oily.
"This led me to try using cold-pressed oils instead of moisturisers and creams, such as argan oil, evening primrose oil, pumpkin oil, macadamia oil, kiwi oil, rosehip and many more.
"The beauty is that I have never looked back. No more dry skin for me.”
