The jasmine flower is a delight for the senses! Its scent is powerful, sensual and enticing.

Jasmine belongs to the large olive family (Oleaceae). It is native to tropical regions of Eurasia, and Oceania. The jasmine flower is white or pale yellow, star-shaped and extremely fragrant. They open at night to release their sensual scent. Thousands of jasmine flowers are processed through solvent extraction to produce just one kilogram of jasmine absolute, which is a thick, dark orange liquid with a rich, floral aroma.

Jasmine was brought to Europe in the 16th century and became a staple ingredient in the perfume industry. Every August, a jasmine festival is held in Grasse, France, during which revellers scatter jasmine water and flowers over celebrating crowds and the town comes alive with music, events and visitors from all over the world.

Lush gets jasmine from many different places around the world such as India and Egypt. The flowers are ideally picked at sunrise when they are the most fragrant.

Ingredient

Vitamin-rich

Shine-enhancing

Strawberries are so tasty that we rarely associate them with anything other than food. But that’s never stopped anyone at Lush! These vitamin C-rich fruits certainly make sense in cosmetics.&nbsp;

The strawberry is a small, juicy red fruit that grows wild in many parts of the world. Contrary to what its name suggests, it is a fruit, not a berry. Some would even say it’s an “accessory fruit” and that the true fruit is actually the tiny seed you can see on the outside of the strawberry, but… let’s not dig that deep.

After Europeans discovered the Americas, different species of strawberries from both continents were crossbred to obtain the perfect size and colour. This gave rise to the commercial varieties that we find today in supermarkets.

It's funny how one plant can carry similar symbolism across different civilisations. The strawberry is a good example: from the Vikings to the Cherokees to the ancient Romans, this fruit symbolises love, union, and fertility. Isn’t the strawberry the most famous craving of pregnant women? Is it its colour, its heart shape, or its delicate, sweet scent that makes the strawberry so enticing and romantic? Perhaps it’s the fleeting nature of its seasonality.

What are the benefits of strawberries for the skin and hair?

The seeds should not be left out—as tiny as they are, they can make a <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/i/strawberry-seeds">good, soft exfoliant</a> when rubbed on the skin and yield <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/i/cold-pressed-strawberry-seed-oil">a moisturising oil</a> when pressed.

It’s time to indulge! Take a look at <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/p/american-cream-conditioner">our gourmand bestseller American Cream conditioner</a>, famously filled with fresh strawberries. <a href="https://www.lush.com/uk/en/c/berries-cream-trifle">This collection of sweet, fruity products</a> may also satisfy your cravings.

Soothing

Moisturising

almonds_2021__26fb5d38.png

A staple in cosmetics, the tear-shaped almond is beloved for its soothing properties and comforting scent.

Almond crops thrive in sunny regions such as the Mediterranean, California, the Middle East and North Africa. The almond tree is part of the plum family (Prunus), and its fruits are very similar to its relatives, such as apricot or peach. Hiding deep in the soft flesh is a very hard pit, which reveals a tender almond when broken.

There are two types of almonds: sweet and bitter. Sweet almonds (Prunus dulcis) can be ground, pressed into oil, or mixed with water to make milk. Almond essential oil is distilled from the kernels of bitter almonds (Prunus amygdalus amara) to make a perfume material.

What are the benefits of almonds in cosmetics?

In general, almonds and almond-derived products are soothing and conditioning to the skin and hair, as well as being emollient and packed with vitamin E (an antioxidant). But the benefits also depend on the type of ingredient, of course. For example:

As we’ve said above, almonds are used in our products in several forms. Each of them will have its own source. 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!

Conditioning

Mouth-watering

cocoa_butter_2021__cbf04b9f.png

A key ingredient in chocolate making, cocoa is also a staple on Lush shelves for its amazing effect on the skin, body and mind.

The cacao tree (Theobroma cacao) grows in warm, humid forests near the Equator. It yields large dark red or yellow pods containing up to 50 seeds each, coated in soft, edible flesh. The seeds, also called cocoa beans, are covered to ferment and then dried. During this process, they lose their acidic taste and develop their familiar chocolate scent.&nbsp;

To obtain cocoa butter, the prepared beans are cleaned, dried and roasted and then ground into a thick, oily paste called chocolate liquor. The liquor can be used as such for chocolate-making or subjected to high pressure to separate the cocoa powder from the butter. An additional step can be carried out to deodorise the butter. This often happens for its use in cosmetics as it could interfere with the other scents of a product. The powder, which contains almost all of the scent and flavour of cocoa, can be used pure or put through solvent extraction to obtain a fragrant absolute.

What are the benefits of cocoa-derived ingredients?

In 2017, a new type of chocolate was patented, called ruby cocoa. It has a dark pinkish colour, due to a special variety of cocoa trees that produce ruby-coloured beans.

The sources will vary depending on the ingredient, but we make sure that they never involve child labour. The Lush buying team always tries to make purchases that contribute to the well-being of people and the planet’s regeneration.
