Business structure

We believe...

  • ...in making effective products from fresh organic* fruit and vegetables, the finest essential oils and safe synthetics
  • in buying ingredients only from companies that do not conduct or commission tests on animals and in testing our products on humans
  • in happy people making happy soap, putting our faces on our products and making our mums proud
  • our products are good value, that we should make a profit and that the customer is always right

The permaculture

*We also believe words like “fresh” and “organic” have an honest meaning beyond marketing.

The company's growth is based mainly upon partnerships

Bill Mollison

Oh gosh it's

Three main ethical principles

1) care of the earth

2) care of people

3) fair share.

Limited partners

General partners

Once upon a time, in a faraway land… Or something like that, is where it all began. The LUSH founders have been working and creating together for over 30 years, in a variety of ways.

  • since 1995
  • industry: cosmetics
  • revenue: £282.5 million
  • Headquarters Poole, United Kingdom

"A balanced ecosystem ensures a long term, regenerative system which is also productive for humans needs."

Go naked campaign

"Opening up your box, you’ll find your fresh naked products protected and separated by recycled cardboard dividers to stop any colour blending."

The Lush poster is undeniably provocative (see: butts), but is it really any different than the scores of images we see every day that show naked (or mostly

naked women) selling perfume, lipstick, and scores of other products?

Ethos and camapaigning

Lush products are 100% vegetarian. They are 83% vegan and 60% preservative-free
