Haaave you met Lush?






Following a friend's suggestion, here I am with a big-topic-post. It's about Lush, a brand I am grateful and faithful to. Those know me are aware of the fact I don't buy any product that is tested on animals (this means make up as well as shampoos, soaps and so on). When I made this decision I went through a hard time trying to discover which brands test and which don't. The conclusion? Almost all brands do (definitely all those you may find on the shelves of a supermarket or a large department store). Fortunately somebody, a person like me and thousands of other people, who cares about animals invented Lush back in 1995. Before carrying reading, you must know this: Lush is like heaven to me, so if you believe what I'll write is overstated
-> first bear in mind that I love it! -> Second, go and try their products and you'll know what I'm talking about.
The photo on top shows my "Lush collection" (at the moment). Everything they offer is cruelty-free*, made of natural ingredients (mainly fruits and vegetables) and, apart from being great quality, it looks and smells sooooooo good! All of their products are handmade and fresh (in fact, they have an expiry date) but some of them are VERY fresh (like face masks) so you have to keep them refrigerated. This is due to little or no use of preservatives and to a pure and simple packaging. Ok, I could go on and on writing about how wonderful Lush is, but I think you'd be better off taking a look at their website as I show you a couple of my favorite products instead.

Oh, one last thing before we head on to our Lush journey: they have plenty of serious campaigns going on, starting but not limited to animals rights, so it's definitely worth checking them out. Plus, they collaborate with PETA.


In seguito al consiglio di un'amica, ecco un post su Lush, una marca che ha tutta la mia gratitudine e fedeltà. Chi mi conosce sa che non compro nessun prodotto che sia testato sugli animali (il che significa non solo make up ma anche shapoo, saponi e così via). Quando ho preso questa decisione ci ho messo molto tempo e fatica per capire quali compagnie testassero e quali no. Il risultato? Praticamente tutte testano (di sicuro tutte quelle che si possono trovare sugli scaffali dei supermercati o nei grandi magazzini e le grandi marche). Per fortuna qualcuno che, come me ed altre migliaia di persone, ha a cuore gli animali ha inventato Lush nel 1995. Prima di continuare dovete sapere che: i negozi Lush per me sono il paradiso, quindi se pensate che quello che sto per scrivere sia esagerato -> primo, tenete a mente che io amo Lush e i loro prodotti -> secondo, andate a provarli e capirete di cosa parlo!
