This is who we are
Creators of pioneering beauty products such as the fizzing bath bomb, shower jellies, and solid shampoo bars, we place emphasis on fresh ingredients like organic fruits and vegetables, fight against animal testing, and combat over-packaging by developing products that can be sold ‘naked’ to the customer without any packaging.
Charity Pot is 15!
Charity Pot is a special hand and body lotion, launched in 2007 to raise funds for small grassroots charities, campaigns, and not-for-profit groups working in the areas of animal protection, human rights, and the environment.

Press Area
Since opening our doors 27 years ago, Lush has been driven by innovation and ethics. Our press area is full to the brim with Lush press releases featuring all of our latest campaign news and product announcements, be it bath bombs, haircare, skincare, makeup, or packaging that fights climate change.
Still Fighting Animal Testing
We have been fighting against animal testing since before we opened our first shop, and the fight continues today. Animal testing is poor science and its results are irrelevant for humans.
Careers
Lush is Retail, Manufacturing, Digital, Support and so much more. We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It’s what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future. We see you, we celebrate you, we want you!
