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.

Here at Glossier, beauty is about you. From our formulas to packaging, playful shades to seriously-great skincare—Glossier was built to make beauty accessible and uncomplicated. Before we launched Glossier in 2014, we started as Into The Gloss. A beauty website and community devoted to sharing real information with real people, about really amazing products. It’s where we realized that beauty shouldn’t be built in a boardroom—it should be built by you. This ethos gave birth to our philosophy: Skin First. Makeup Second™. We prioritize skincare because we believe that healthy skin is the best foundation. We believe in thoughtful design and cultivating conversations. It’s at the core of everything we do—the starting point of all our makeup, skincare, bodycare, and fragrance products. At Glossier, beauty is about celebrating freedom of expression, individuality , and having fun. Our Skin First. Makeup Second™ approach ensures that every product supports your skin’s health, allowing your makeup to enhance rather than mask your natural beauty.
