COS Organics, Coomera, QLD

COSOrganics' story begins along with a kid sporting a ginger mullet (how daring!), rocking curly hair and freckles that 'd give Meghan Markle a run for her money. That kid was actually me– Rebecca Castano Mander, the founder of COSOrganics. Provided the picture I've painted, I'm sure you can suppose how my school days rolled. Institution typically meant trying my best, certainly not to breathe while eating lunch in the toilet and walking alongside instructors to prevent unwanted attention. As you can imagine, more than the years, my anxiety grew.

Fast-forward to 2019 and as challenging as my school days were, they planted COS Organics' first seeds, long before we even picked our first lemon myrtle extract. These days, I'm a successful cosmetologist, humanitarian, volunteer, mother, wife and lover of life and nature.
