Our take

Cosmetics are simultaneously one of the largest and one of the most polluting industries in the world. But Lush doesn't believe good quality beauty products need to have such a damaging impact on the environment.

Instead, it sets itself apart by producing all-natural, and ethically sourced cosmetics. All of its products are handmade, vegetarian, and are not tested on animals, whilst still doing good to users' skin.

With this approach, Lush is aiming to make sure that cosmetics and environmental sustainability are not mutually exclusive, helping to revolutionise the hundreds-of-billions-sized cosmetics industry.
