Founded in 2000 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Rituals was the first luxury brand to combine home and body products. To date, we've opened 1000 stores in 36 countries and have become a renowned wellbeing destination.

As a certified B Corp™ we believe in sustainable wellbeing, with collections that are good for people and good for the planet. This is supported by our three pillars: Clean, Conscious, and Caring. Clean: 79% of our personal care products contain >90% natural origin ingredients, and by 2023 all formulas will meet this standard. Conscious: we make sustainable choices; every collection has refill options, and we plant, protect, or restore a tree for every refill sold. Caring: we proudly support social initiatives including Tiny Miracles, a pioneering foundation that helps break the poverty cycle by providing life-changing work for underserved communities in Mumbai, India. This philosophy of sustainable wellbeing is embedded into our company culture. Our people are open minded, customer first oriented, and energetic.

Founded in 1995 by six co-founders—Mark and Mo Constantine, Rowena Bird, Helen Ambrosen, Liz Bennett, and Paul Greeves—Lush began as a small cosmetics shop in Poole, Dorset, UK. Since then we have been pioneers in the beauty industry, committed to creating fresh, handmade products that are as kind to the planet as they are to your skin. We pride ourselves on using ethically sourced ingredients and developing cruelty-free, innovative products that challenge the status quo. Our dedication to environmental sustainability and ethical practices is embedded in everything we do. At Lush, we strive to leave the world lusher than we found it. This means actively working to reduce our environmental footprint through packaging-free products and supporting causes that matter. We fight for animal rights, promote fair trade, and push for real, meaningful change in the beauty industry. Our mission is about more than products—it’s about changing the way the world sees beauty. As a 10% employee-owned company, Lush values the contributions of every individual. Our team is the driving force behind our creativity, innovation, and commitment to a better future. By empowering our people and staying true to our mission, we continue to lead the charge for a more ethical, sustainable, and inclusive beauty industry.

Tatcha is a skincare brand rooted in timeless Japanese wisdom, offering transformative yet kind-to-skin formulas that marry Japanese botanicals with clinical ingredients. Our formulation philosophy is informed by the Japanese concept hinou dokon, which means “skin-mind same root”—an acknowledgement of the powerful connection between the skin and the brain. Guided by the mission to care for people through their skin, Tatcha takes a holistic approach to skincare from concept to formulation to clinical evaluation, offering skincare rituals that benefit both skin and mind, while emphasizing the importance of mindfulness to skin health. Tatcha is grateful to support Room to Read’s mission of world change through education. Every purchase supports education equality through a partnership with the leading nonprofit for children's literacy and girls' education. As of October 2022, Tatcha has funded 7 million days of school for girls in Asia and Africa, and supported the printing and distribution of 155,000 inclusive books for underserved children in the US. In 2019, Tatcha was acquired by Unilever Prestige. A global company based in San Francisco and Tokyo, it is distributed in over 10 countries.
