It’s beginning to look a lot like a James Christmas here at HQ! A giant 6ft tree adorned in red and gold baubles with festively flickering lights stands proud in the foyer. Kris Kringles have been mysteriously assigned and our annual Christmas hoorah is marked with gold in our Courtney Mangan calendars.
Christmas is an occasion that lives rent free in our Founder, Sam Mangan’s head all year round. It is simply THE celebration of the entire year. While HQ is decadently decorated and our calendars are full of celebrations, Sam’s enthusiasm for Christmas extends beyond the team, into the hands of our fabulously dedicated customers. Each year a range of limited edition Christmas packs are released and each year we watch as they fly out the door to make their way under the trees or into the stockings of our adoring customers.
Teacher, work wife, Kris Kringle or skincare bestie? We have something for everyone in The Gift Shop. Join our team as we celebrate the most wonderful time of the year - give the gift of James this Christmas!

What is Kakadu Plum?
In short: A small but mighty Australian plum that packs an absolute punch when it comes to skin brightening and firming.
Historically, this little green plum was used as an Aboriginal medicinal ingredient for its healing properties. Today, in skincare, we understand this fruit to be a powerful tool, helping to promote brightening, while effectively firming fine lines and wrinkles due to its highly potent Vitamin C properties.
Kakadu Plum is even 100 times more potent in Vitamin C than an orange.
Why it’s worth the hype!
Brightening
Check your Vitamin C, do you see Kakadu Plum in the ingredients? You’re likely missing out on advanced levels of natural skin brightening. Renew your complexion with this exciting natural extract that helps to fade pigmentation, even out skin tone, and leave the skin's surface bright and radiant in appearance.
Firming
Fine lines, be gone! Due to its naturally high levels of Vitamin C, products containing the Kakadu fruit are known to help boost collagen production, leaving the skin plump and firm by assisting in reducing the appearance of fine lines.
Join the hype

Note: the product will feel like it is working - relax knowing the sensation is the mask working to remove excess oil blocking hair follicles. Leave the mask for 10 mins and wash out with shampoo and conditioner. To prepare for the next step, towel dry freshly exfoliated hair.
Step 2: Replenish me
Now that you’ve said goodbye to those pesky pollutants living rent free on your scalp, it’s time to treat tired strands with a lick of hydration. Apply a generous amount of our Replenish Me Luxury Hair Mask working from the ends of your hair to the roots. Secure your well lathered strands with our Luxury Hair Wrap and wait 15 mins while the Tamanu Oil and Argan Oil work their magic. Tip: wait out the 15 mins with your favourite James Eye Mask. Rise thoroughly and towel dry hair in preparation for styling!
