Introduction
Handmade is at the heart of Lush. So, when it comes to our seasonal range we really do want to knock our customers socks off. We get our hands dirty collaging, painting, inking and sticking – all the messy, magical bits you used to love as a child – in a bid to make gifts that have stories as well as style.

Large or small, each gift is carefully thought out and crafted, from the handmade treats nestled inside, to the final tie of the ribbon. We’d love to say that we make beautiful presents by hand just for the joy of it, but we must confess it’s not entirely without motive. It’s our 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. We’re not manufacturing throwaway fillers but keepsakes that we hope our customer’s will treasure.
