Maybe you had heard of Lush Cosmetics from headlines last spring: the company held a public protest against animal testing in front of a UK store by subjecting humans to the actual treatments animals endure. For 10 hours, the scene displayed 24-year-old Jacqueline Trade getting injections, being force-fed, and recieving other forms of humiliation, while public bystanders watched in shock. The display was meant as a promise that Lush keeps to its clientele, which is that all of its products are manufactured without any cruelty to animals.
We are huge fans of Lush– both for their incredible activism and of course, their delightful products! Lush is known to be the candy store for adults and their products are the ultimate indulgence. Maybe you have walked by a Lush store admiring all the colorful, sparkly soaps and bath products, but there are so many goodies to pick from, we know it can be overwhelming! Here are our top 10 favorite products from Lush:
1. Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner
This luxurious rose scented body conditioner is unlike any other body lotion. Ro’s Argan is applied while in the shower and then rinsed off. Skin is left moisturized and smelling of glorious roses, without any sticky residue remaining.
2. BIG Shampoo
If your hair is ever in need of a major volume boost, BIG is the shampoo for you. Infused with sea salt, seaweed, and coconut oil, your hair is left with an incredible shine and a major volume boost.
3. Bubblegum Lip Scrub
Bubblegum Lip Scrub is a flavored sugar lip scrub for exfoliating your lips. It is best used before lipstick application, as it creates a smooth base needed for a flawless finish.
4. WHOOSH Shower Jelly
WHOOSH Shower Jelly is jelly in the form of soap. WOOSH is perfect for those days when you need an extra push or wake-me-up in the morning, as it is infused with the energizing scents of grapefruit, lemon and lime.

Not to mention, the small size of this shampoo/conditioner bar is ideal for traveling!
