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.
Burt's Bees is the #1 dermatologist recommended natural skincare brand, offering clean and consciously-crafted products to work with the skin and uplift the spirit. We believe that nature holds the key to healthy skin, so we create skin care formulas that are packed with powerful, nutrient-rich ingredients for skin that’s nourished, balanced and beautiful.
Our formulas reflect evidence-based natural skin care learnings, and are crafted to work with skin’s natural pace of renewal by nourishing emerging cells and supporting the hydro-lipid barrier. Our nutrient-rich ingredients deliver vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and other phytonutrients to address specific skin care concerns. Formulas are over 95% Natural Origin, with no animal testing, responsible sourcing, and recyclable packaging.
As a company, Burt’s Bees operates with a triple bottom line - people, profit, planet - because you simply can’t have one without the other two. We actively nurture our employees, our customers, our families, ourselves and our environment. By practicing what we preach, we hope to set an example for others to follow, and help people connect with the wisdom, power and beauty of nature in their daily lives.
WE WILL BE THE GREATEST!
Big words, yes, but that's how we at Lyko think every day. We want to take over the world. At least the part of the world that loves beauty.

And we've only just begun! World, here we come!
CULTURE IS IN THE PEOPLE
This is how it is. Everyone is different. Even those of us who work at Lyko. We have different experiences, personalities and see things differently. At the same time, many of us probably work here because we dig the culture at Lyko. At us, we call it The Lyko Way, which in turn consists of five F's - our way of doing things simply.
FUN: Life is too short to be bored. Make sure you have fun on the road – whatever you do!
FRIENDLY: Sharing is caring. Highlight all the "good" in people around you!
FOCUSED: Growth + rocket speed + many good ideas and opportunities = new pucks all the time. But. Biggest effect first.
FABULOUS: Better an oops than a rethink. Mistakes = no big deal, okay?
F*CKING LUCKY: It is usually the one who tries who succeeds. Believe that you are LUCKY in life, the chances are greater that it will actually be that way!
