**About Lush**:
Since establishing in 1995 in Poole, Dorset, Lush has been driven by innovation and its ethics.

Creators of pioneering beauty products such as the fizzing bath bomb, shower jellies and solid shampoo bars, we place emphasis on fresh ingredients like organic fruits and vegetables, fight against animal testing and combat over-packaging by developing products that can be sold ‘naked’ to the customer without any packaging.

We currently operate in 52 countries with 928 global shops. Through our separate business divisions we invent, manufacture and sell our handmade products direct to our customers through our own shops and online. The fact that we make all our products by hand is something we are really rather proud of

Lush is 10% Employee Owned since 2017 and our people are the heart and soul of our business.

In the UK we currently have offices located in Poole, Dorset and Soho, London.
