Full on pro trans kids window display

Good for Lush, it's nice to know that there is a company selling products to help clean all those poor trans women activists who had to get their penises out in public and urinate at the protest.

The one in the shopping centre near me has been doing kids birthday parties.

The kissing campaign was illogical as well as horrific. Those men aren't going to head straight on to the shop and buy boddy scrubs.

bubblerabbit · 24/04/2025 08:31

What's even stranger to me is that it's so bloody expensive which means that, surely, one of their core customers has to be a certain type of well heeled older woman. How can they afford to go down this road?

Eff around and find out, I guess.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 24/04/2025 08:31

Honestly I only have to walk past that shop and I get a headache. I dread to think what they are actually putting in their products. I’m sure there is a Reddit thread somewhere about how they treat their employees like shit.

I’ve always had to hold my breath passing their shops, and metaphorically hold my nose too.

Brilliant!

Should be called Thrush not Lush too.

Pabbel · 24/04/2025 07:50

I find it really pleasing that everytime I pass my local lush shop its empty of customers, hopefully it will cease trading soon.

teentantrums · 24/04/2025 07:43

I've only just read about the kissing campaign. Horrendous and I'm certain they knew in advance how that would play out.

LadyBracknellsHandbagg · 24/04/2025 07:42

That cartoon on their home page is deranged 😂 I have always hated their products, can’t walk past one of their shops without feeling ill.

Don't forget when they stuck a "naked" woman in the store window for 10 hours and "tortured" her to make a point about animal rights....

That's horrific. Even more so when you read this at the end of the article!

'It is a pity that Lush chose to run this campaign in a country where the testing of cosmetic products on animals is banned and which has the strictest animal welfare provisions regarding the use of animals for scientific purposes anywhere in the EU."

"It is a pity the campaign is directed at an industry that has done more than any other to develop and promote the use of alternatives."

Their factory is on a nearby industrial estate 🙁.

Oh I bet that's fun 😢

Lush are disgusting. They have shown support for terrorists as well, so I’m not surprised at this.

So glad I have an order of stickers en route from LetWomenSpeak although it has taken 3 weeks for them to send them. I need to pre plan a bit better.

nocoolnamesleft · 24/04/2025 00:06

I used to buy quite a bit of their stuff. I stopped doing so because of their stance on this.

Didn’t they have some anti police stuff in their windows once as well?! Stick to selling toiletries, no one wants politics shoved down their throat when they are buying a bath bomb

They had a ‘spy cops / police spies out of lives’ campaign’ which unfortunately co-incided with the horrific murder of PC Andrew Harper, so it touches a very raw nerve with the public.

I boycotted them when they supported WPUK and then made a grovelling apology for doing so. They also gave out breast binders to young girls without their parents’ knowledge.

Passed the Covent Garden store today! It made me double take!
Read the room lush!

SoManyIdiotsSoLittleTime · 23/04/2025 23:54

I used to love their chocolate face mask and buy gift sets. However I refuse to step into their shops since they did their TWAW campaigning.

I tell anyone who is willing to listen not to shop there and why. I do find it bizarre as you would think they would like their marketing team to encourage customers rather than repel them.

They don't mind discriminating against asthmatics, my poor DS can't even be in the same street as one of their shops with being ill. 😢

Their factory is on a nearby industrial estate 🙁.

Hercisback1 · 23/04/2025 23:46

Never been buying from them again. Which is a shame cus I really like their Big shampoo. But that web banner is atrocious.

murasaki · 23/04/2025 23:43

I'd rather smell like I spent 3 days living in a sewage farm than smell like anything sold in Lush.

selffellatingouroborosofhate · 23/04/2025 23:32

Scout2016 · 23/04/2025 22:15

It's a fairly easy boycot for me because i hate their products but I haven't bought as gifts since they had young female staff doing that kisses promo

https://mitheringsfrommorningside.wordpress.com/tag/lush-cruelty-free-kisses/

They also had a strop over some I love JKR stickers on the window and refusing to serve customers wearing similar such as Adult Human Female t-shirts. Absolute disgrace of a company.

🤮🤮🤮

This is what happens when you decide that "sex work" is work.

MariadeiMiracoli · 23/04/2025 23:31

They've seen a commercial opportunity and are trying to seize it, surely? I imagine they think that everyone involved in this outpouring of grief and support for poor, poor transpeople is someone they can persuade to buy soap and bath bombs. They may be right, but this is a passing phase and like the Body Shop, they'll pay the price eventually.

Zebracat · 23/04/2025 23:25

It’s weird commercially. I just told a firm that the reason I stopped signing up for their medical product was the sex assigned at birth question. I want a better understanding of human biology thank you.
