About Lush Gifts
When you buy a Lush gift, you’re having a positive impact on the world – you’re saying no to excess single-use plastic; you’re supporting communities and artisans who’ve made the Knot Wraps, ribbons, and natural papers; you’re buying products with beautiful ingredients that regenerate social and eco-systems.
Large or small, each Lush gift is carefully thought out and crafted, from the handmade treats nestled inside, to the final tie of the ribbon. It’s Lush’s hope that by paying so much attention to every aspect from box to bath, the lucky recipient has extra incentive to keep the boxes, reuse the wrapping paper or upcycle the ribbons.
Above all, Lush are passionate about art and design, this includes the people who create it. We understand how important it is to have a breadth of design from a variety of voices and from as many backgrounds as possible.
