Lush Summer Essentials!

Whether you’re packing for a family holiday, a weekend trip with friends or simply looking for the perfect product to help you switch off, take a deep breath and transport you to another place – here are Lush’s top products to see you through the Summer months.

Featuring a selection of naked, plastic packaging free and packaged products that can be brought back as part of Lush’s Bring it Back scheme – to support a circular economy and help leave the world lusher than we found it. In 2022, Lush customers and staff returned an estimated 720,000 items of Lush packaging to be processed at the Green Hub, Lush’s UK recycling hub.

Shower on your sun protection! Designed to be used all over the body, simply break off one third of the bar and glide over wet skin in the bath or shower, then lightly pat yourself dry with a towel. Pair with shade, shades and a hat and remember to top up your sunscreen after two hours. 

A loose, light powder that is non-greasy and excellent for topping up throughout the day. With mattifying calamine powder to soothe, and sesame oil to nourish, this unique sun care product will leave your skin feeling hydrated and silky soft.

For glowing, sun-kissed skin, this luxurious sun cream has a subtle shimmer and moisturising honey for a comforting fragrance. With softening shea butter and nourishing sesame oil, feel rest assured your skin is protected all day long with this rich, hydrating cream.

This aftersun lotion is formulated to replenish skin after time in the sunshine, with ultra hydrating sesame oil and cocoa butter, and a soothing combination of walnut leaf infusion and aloe vera to cool and calm. 

For beautifully buoyant hair, lather up with softening Irish moss and volumizing fine sea salt. Did you know switching to a solid shampoo saves you purchasing three 200ml liquid bottles of shampoo? Lush’s Naked shampoo bars have now saved the use of 170 million plastic bottles.

Step into summer with flawless feet as you massage this cooling and soothing lotion into the skin to give you a spring in your step. Packed with refreshing spearmint oil and moisturising cocoa butter, this luxurious product will get you back on your feet. 

Looking for the perfect pre-holiday pamper for your feet? Treat yourself to The Spell Lush Spa Treatment (£90), a grounding 60 minute reflexology-inspired foot and scalp massage.

After bathing or showering, shake a little of this moisturising, dusting powder all over your body for velvety soft skin with Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter and kaolin.

With protective honey water to gently cleanse the skin, while perky, energising grapefruit and lemon oils, tone your skin and blast away sleepiness. Serve up this citrus jelly baby fresh from the freezer for spine-tinglingly good cleanses.

Be reminded of your sunny holiday with a new fragrance to bring back your favourite vacation memories. Shade solid perfume is compact and travel-friendly, with a warm and woody fragrance. Using sandalwood extracted from protected and sustainable trees in West Timor, and olibanum sourced from the Dayaxa region in Somaliland, Shade is a perfume with a conscience.

A trio of refreshing bath bombs featuring carefully chosen essential oils to leave you feeling cool and calm. Originally invented by Lush Co-founder and Product Inventor, Mo Constantine in her garden shed in 1989, there are now 48 Lush bath bombs sold globally every minute!
