Since 1995, Lush has been a trailblazer in the cosmetics industry. From inventing bath bombs and creating new, innovative products to fighting animal testing and ethical campaigning, it’s come a long way since its humble beginnings.
Before there was Lush, there was Constantine & Weir and Cosmetics To Go.
Mark Constantine and Liz Weir first met in the early ‘70s while working at a beauty salon in Poole, England. Mark was a trichologist and Liz was a beauty therapist. Both were interested in natural beauty products, so decided to create a business of their own.
The duo developed Constantine & Weir making products for local herbalists and salons, including The Body Shop. Later, with the help of Mo Constantine, Rowena Bird and Helen Ambrosen, they’d concoct small batches of products made from their own recipes. As The Body Shop gained popularity, owner Anita Roddick bought their bestselling formulas and parted ways, leaving Constantine & Weir free to start a new venture.
Free to run amok with creativity, the crew founded Cosmetics To Go, a mail-order company that offered never-before-seen items like bath bombs, solid shampoo bars, and massage bars. Mark and the team experimented and played with ingredients, innovated, and focused on issues like fighting against animal testing. They developed a strict buying policy that ensured that no supplier tested on animals and they funded work that highlighted alternatives to animal testing.
Unfortunately, after six short years, it all came to an abrupt end.
Our founders were passionate about fresh, handmade creations for the whole body.
The arrival of Lush following the loss of Cosmetics To Go was a humble one, but many of the tenets and beliefs remained. In fact, a We Believe statement was created to guide this fresh start and remind the team where they’d come from, but also where they wanted to go.
The first Lush shop opened in Poole in 1995. Its simple design used reclaimed materials and was just one example of Lush’s values come to life: money was to be spent on things that brought value to customers, doing away with frivolous add-ons, like packaging. It also saw a more transparent ethical buying policy, where ingredient journeys could be traced from planting to harvesting and processing, ensuring that it was ethical from start to finish. Lush’s shelves were filled with iconic bath bombs, bubble bars, and massage bars that were zero waste and packed with even greater benefits to customers.
In 1995, on a trip to London, Mark Wolverton and Karen Delaney-Wolverton discovered Lush. They fell in love with its philosophy to bring fresh, vegetarian products to its customers. In 1996, they opened the first Lush shop in Vancouver, Canada. Today, there are 269 shops in North America all supported by head offices, factories, and distribution facilities in Vancouver and Toronto. Plus, there’s a real person behind every product made at Lush from making fresh batches to potting and labelling each one by hand.
With a massive global reach and platform, Lush has become synonymous with its values, allowing it to be a true campaigning company that brings ethical campaigns to the forefront: from breaking free from fossil fuels to supporting Black-led organizations and beyond . In 2007, Charity Pot also became a way for the brand to turn its resources into charitable giving to create positive change in the world. With every purchase of Charity Pot, 100% of its purchase price is donated to grassroots groups working in the areas of animal protection, human rights and environmental justice. Lush customers have bought more than 3.5 million pots since its launch, raising more than $50 million for thousands of projects around the world.
And it didn’t stop there; the team’s commitment to fighting animal testing continued, proving that there’s no need for these horrifying tests. In fact, the Lush Prize—an annual event that awards a £250000 global prize fund to those working to end or replace animal testing with revolutionary alternatives — helps to continue to support the end of animal testing once and for all.
Innovation also remains a core focus even today. Creating self-preserving (or preservative-free) versions of products that don’t need safe synthetics, sharing the power of zero-waste knot-wraps, adding more naked products, and finding new ways to create more vegan products. Even sourcing ingredients pushes the boundaries of what’s expected. In a quest for total transparency in its supply chains and an urgent need to address climate change, Lush began investing in regenerative farms , ensuring that as suppliers grow beautiful ingredients, more trees are put into the ground, more money goes back to farmers, and ingredients that are sourced offer 100% transparency. In fact, Lush has invested in farms in Peru , Guatemala , Arizona , and Uganda .
So what’s next? Lush’s journey is ongoing. And as it continues to grow and evolve in ways that keep breaking new ground in the cosmetics industry, it’s a journey we hope you’ll always be a part of.

Kalindi ( Radhika Apte ), a college professor, engages in a one night stand with a student of hers named Tejas ( Akash Thosar ). The morning after, she reassures herself that it was only a one-time occurrence but later stresses over the power dynamic of a student-teacher relationship. Multiple scenes are woven throughout the segment which depict Kalindi speaking to someone off-screen, in the fashion of an interview. During these cuts, she reveals that she is married to a man named Mihir, who is 12 years older than her and remains a close confidante. Inspired by his adventurous stories of love and numerous short-term relationships, Kalindi is also on a mission to explore her own sexuality. She begins dating her colleague Neeraj (Randeep Jha) but breaks up with him due to his firm belief in monogamy and his sexual awkwardness. She realizes that Tejas is beginning a relationship with his classmate Natasha (Ridhi Khakhar), which Tejas vehemently denies. To get him to confess, Kalindi obsessively stalks the couple, behaves rudely towards Natasha, and even breaks into Tejas's room to search for evidence. Finally, in her exasperation, Kalindi relays to Tejas that she was interested in him and that she wishes him luck with Natasha. Tejas tells her that he was unaware of her feelings and is willing to leave Natasha for her, to which Kalindi replies, "Are you mad? I'm married".

Sudha ( Bhumi Pednekar ) and Ajit ( Neil Bhoopalam ) are secretly in a passionate sexual relationship. It is revealed that Sudha is his maid, who arrives daily to clean his bachelor apartment. Ajit's parents arrive to stay for some time, during which Sudha is shown to diligently work for the family, despite earning only ignorance from Ajit. One day, a family arrives with their daughter for a marriage proposal and Sudha is silently heartbroken. As she prepares food, she watches the two families finalize the marriage and discuss the futures of their children. Sudha serves them tea and finds Ajit romancing his bride-to-be in his room. She appears to be desolate as Ajit's mother distributes sweets and congratulates her. Sudha slowly eats a piece of the sweets and resuming her normal routine, is shown to leave the apartment after yet another day of work.

Reena ( Manisha Koirala ), a banker, is in an extra-marital affair with her husband's close friend Sudhir ( Jaideep Ahlawat ). The two are in love and have maintained their secret relationship for 3 years. During one of Reena's visits to Sudhir's home, Salman ( Sanjay Kapoor ) relays to Sudhir that he suspects Reena is cheating on him. This causes Sudhir and Reena to panic. Reena voices they should tell Salman about the affair so they can openly be together and is disheartened at Sudhir's reaction as he does not seem to think it a possibility. Reena ends up calling Salman to Sudhir's home. Reena reveals to Salman that she is unhappy in their marriage, and feels that Salman only needs a mother for his children, not a wife. After she reveals her 3-year affair with Sudhir, Salman breaks down and asks her to stay for the sake of their children. Later that night, the couple bond and make love whilst Reena is grief-stricken. The next morning, she tells Sudhir that Salman knows about the affair, wants her to end it and that Sudhir can never "know" that Salman was aware of the affair at all. Reena tells Sudhir that she cannot meet him again and leaves with her husband.

Megha ( Kiara Advani ) is a young school teacher who is engaged to Paras ( Vicky Kaushal ), an office worker. After their marriage, Megha discovers that while Paras is continuously pleasured during sex, he is not aware of her dissatisfaction. His family pushes her to bear children, as they believe this is the only pleasure that a woman desires. One day, Megha witnesses her colleague Rekha ( Neha Dhupia ) using a vibrator in the school library. This motivates Megha to use one too; however, when she attempts to try it out at home, Paras arrives in a disheveled state from an accident and she rushes out to the living room with her vibrator still inside her. Paras' grandmother mistakes the vibrator's remote for a TV remote and unknowingly begins to increase the intensity. Megha enjoys it with pleasure. She tries to control herself but fails. Megha eventually climaxes into an orgasm as her mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and Paras watch in shock. Enraged, Paras's mother demands a divorce and announces that Megha's womb is not suitable to bear her son's children. One month later, Paras meets Megha and tells her that he does not wish to divorce her just because she made a mistake. After she firmly says that she made no mistake and that a woman has more desires than just children, Paras romantically feeds her ice cream, indicating that he is interested in pleasing her.

Lust Stories is developed as a sequel to the 2013 anthology film Bombay Talkies . It has been co-produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Ashi Dua under the label of their respective production companies RSVP and Flying Unicorn Entertainment. The four segments of the anthology film have been directed by Anurag Kashyap , Zoya Akhtar and Dibakar Banerjee and Karan Johar respectively. [3] [4] [5]

The international distribution rights for Lust Stories were acquired by Netflix . [6] The film was released on Netflix on 15 June 2018. [7]

Lust Stories delightfully pushes boundaries to tell real stories about real women, who are unapologetic in their imperfections and desires, and go about mending their heart strings the best they can. Lust after all, is never too far from the other L-word . —Suktara Ghosh, in her June, 2018 review for The Quint

Critics praised the film's portrayal of women and its exploration of female sexuality, a subject which has been rarely dealt with in Indian films. [8] Film critic Alaka Sahani used the metaphor of a woman’s body is draped in a dupatta while discussing the sheltered sexuality of women in general, a theme that took a central position in the narrative; she praised the handling of the subject matter as clinical in the subversion of such regressive stereotypes associated with women who have an active sex life as the presumably amorous " vamps " in the Indian film industry. [9] Kiara Advani 's masturbation scene in the film, using a vibrator , was praised for its frank portrayal of women's sexuality. [10]

Mridula R of The News Minute echoed the sentiment as she praised the film's novelty in the honest portrayal of women, their "liberation, thoughts, [and] decisions". [11] Others were also appreciative of the "glorious women [who] stubbornly and strikingly hold the reins" [12] and the "sometimes not likeable, but definitely relatable women who usually elude our screens". [13] Commentators responded positively to subtlety in the film's use of
