Rewild your routine

"Best hair product I've used! Gives your hair texture and flexibility to style, and smells amazing!" - michael_745386 "...this is easily the best product I've ever used. It smells great, lasts all day and offers a strong hold even when my hair is getting a tad on the long side (as happens with lockdown) which also means you don't have to use as much." - cameronclark400

Take a 5p amount at a time, work between the fingers or palms, and apply where needed on wet or dry hair until you are happy with the result. Designed for thick hair, although anyone can use it. For best results always work any styling product from the back to the front of the scalp before combing into place.

It pays to recycle with us! Return the packaging for this product to any a Lush shop and receive money towards your next purchase. Alternatively, return 5 qualifying items packaging for a free fresh face mask.

Glossy little linseeds do way more than add some crunch to your salad. Behold, ultimate hydration and softness!

Also known as flax (not Holly Flax), the linseed plant is cultivated in most temperate areas of the world for its fibres and seeds. The tall-stemmed herb grows blue flowers from May every year, making beautiful coloured crops during the flowering season.

Linseeds can produce two valuable substances for cosmetics:

We purchase linseed in different forms (oil, brown seeds, golden seeds…) and each of them comes from a different source. The best way to find out more is to browse your Lush product’s list of ingredients and click on the ones you are interested in. This should take you to a page full of details!

Grounding

Sandalwood is a distinctly reassuring and grounding scent; it creates the base of many marvellous perfumes.

Sandalwood is an umbrella name for many scented trees, all belonging to the Santalum genus. These evergreen trees can grow up to 50 feet tall and have to be at least 25 years old before the wood is ready for distillation.

There are about 10 different types of sandalwood acress various parts of the world. Its aroma can change slightly depending on the origin.

Because of its popular fragrance and importance in many rites and folk medicine around the globe, sandalwood has been overexploited and the harvesting badly managed for centuries, leaving some species endangered. Although regulations have been made by governments, the high value of the wood still leads to smuggling, counterfeits and corruption, making it very difficult to find sustainable sources and a good oil quality. After long investigations and adventures, Lush buyers have found a few reliable sources.

The best thing you could bring to a desert island? A coconut tree.

The coconut palm (Cocos nucifera) is thought to be native to the warm climates of Polynesia, Malaysia and southern Asia. The trees bloom and bear fruit throughout the year, growing a new flower spike nearly every month. This then becomes a cluster of six to twelve fruits. Coconuts are the seeds of these fruits, the largest seed known to the world!&nbsp;

'Kalpavriksha', the Sanskrit name for the coconut, means 'tree which gives all that is necessary for living' and, indeed, the possibilities seem endless. In Lush products alone, you can find the water, the flesh and the shell of its seed, as well as the nectar of its flower. We can even use the fibres of its fruits to make some of the wrapping papers!

A few of the many benefits of coconut-derived products

Each coconut-derived ingredient we use has its specific benefits and suppliers. To find out more, browse your Lush product’s list of ingredients and click on the ones you are interested in. This should take you to a page full of details!

The forest! Here, now, thanks to the wonderful fresh scent of pine and fir extracts.

Pines and firs are very resistant resinous conifers. These tall and wide trees are generous: they provide timber, <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/i/rosin">oleoresin</a>, medicines, aromatic extracts, and many other essential products. The oldest pine known is 4,800 years old; hence it’s a symbol of longevity in many countries.

At Lush, we’ve been using the great natural gifts of the Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and the balsam fir (Abies balsamea), among others. Oils, absolutes, needles, and resins let us add a relaxing woody scent to our products.

What is the difference between pine and fir scents?

For some, the scent of pine recalls walks in the wet Caledonian forest; for others, it is a shaded path to the beach, and for others still, it is choosing a Christmas tree... it is rare not to have memories linked to pine when you live in the northern hemisphere. From the coldest tundras to the warmest Mediterranean coasts, they’re everywhere, stretching the landscape and fueling folklore.

Lush’s perfumer Alina Gliwinska describes <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/i/pine-oil">pine essential oil</a> as fresh, terpenic, green, woody and sharper than fir absolute. She says: “<a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/i/fir-needle-absolute">Fir needle absolute</a> is sweeter and richer. It has balsamic and sugary, coumarin-like base notes. <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/i/balsam-fir-resin">Fir balsam resin</a> is not as sweet. It is also balsamic and smooth but in a green, fresh way."

Pine and fir will also act differently in a perfume. Alina adds, "In my opinion, pine oil is a good top-middle note. It will stand up strongly as a coniferous scent, while fir extracts will be used as base notes. Fir’s sweet, balsamic nature makes it easy to mix with other accords and notes in the perfume. They balance the scent and boost the coniferous notes."

A resin that leaves the world Lusher Than We Found It

The fir balsam resin found in Lush products is harvested from the Boreal forests. These account for 28% of the world's forested areas. They’re a vital sanctuary for migratory birds during their summer breeding season and see three to five billion of them migrate in the autumn to reach warmer regions of North and South America.

Our suppliers of fir resin reside in northern Quebec, Canada. They cherish and protect the forest. The harvests are carefully managed in the wild, over controlled areas. They also utilise leftover materials to generate additional value and employment opportunities for local communities. The resin stays fluid and only needs a simple filtration process, without alcohol or solvents,&nbsp; to ensure its cleanliness.

Wholeheartedly convinced that you're going to love pine and fir scents? You can find both in many of our products, <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/c/christmas">especially in winter</a>. For the rest of the year, fir resin regularly appears in <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/c/bath-bombs">our bath bombs</a>, while pine oil teams up with patchouli in <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/c/karma">our best-selling fragrance, Karma</a>.
