Lush Life

I came across this new store which I'd like to call it the new and refined version of The Body Shop. The store is called Lush and it provides fresh cosmetics and beauty products all handmade using fresh, organic fruit and vegetables, and the finest essential oils. It has a complete range of natural handmade bath, body, and face products including handmade natural soaps, bath bombs, shampoos, cleansers, and moisturizers. Great place for gift ideas. The store has a deliciously mouth-watering smell so I strongly do not recommend visiting it while fasting.


Lush Cosmetics is located at 360 Mall's lower level, opposite to Giant supermarket.

it's been in kuwait for a couple of years now. the first store is located in salmiya plaza.

one of the co-founders, mark constantine, used to work for the body shop and he's the one who created the peppermint foot scrub:) i was lucky enough to meet him (and some lush bigwigs) a couple of years in london. he's SO passionate about the company!

He follows that post so if you have any questions you can ask him there and he usually replies within a day.

Lush started in Canada and quickly spread throughout the rest of the world thanks to their yummy (and effective) concoctions.

As a Canadian expat living in Kuwait, I cannot tell you how happy I was to stumble upon a Lush store in my new home town.

So thanks for featuring it. : )

Dandoon - My mistake, I looked into it and you're right.

Years ago, on the local (Canadian) website's store they made it sound like they started on Canada's west coast. That may just have been the first Canadian store though.

You learn something every day, I guess. lol Thanks for the heads up. : )

I was wondering if you knew if it was still open? I've heard a lot of good things about their products and I'm pretty excited about trying them out for myself.

The last time I checked (almost 2 weeks ago) it was closed for renovations... It should be open in a month or so :)

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

Magical Mode

As anyone who regularly reads Confashions may know, there are some designers I’ve been obsessed with for quite some time: one is the genius Erdem , the other is Nicholas Kirkwood , and Pierre Hardy . And because their designs are somehow easily accessible online and offline, I had the pleasure of featuring some of their creations and showing them the love they deserve. That said, there is one designer I’ve been particularly smitten with for quite some time. He has always been on the top of my favorite designers list ever since I was introduced to his designs by my fabulous fellow fashionisto Adnan Z Manjal   a couple of years back : Saudi designer Mohammed Ashi . I always wished I featured him more. I couldn’t because his pieces are very exclusive and as far as I know not stocked anywhere here. This clearly isn't just another post on my obvious love for Mohammed Ashi’s designs or the quality of his clothes as I have done that previously. Ashi simply deserves his very own epic p...

My Birkin... My Pride & Joy

Birkin ... Birkin .. Birkin ... you mesmerize me.. I'm so addicted to yoooooou . sitting galmorously in my closet is my hard earned blue Hermes Birkin Bag. To own it is like the ultimate fashionista dream. I look at it lovingly and think to myself " daaaamn ! you are one hell of a lucky girl! I shall protect you from the evil eye 'till the day I die ". My friend asked me once why am I so obsessed with my Birkin . I can list 100 reasons why. But just to be short & sweet, it's exclusive, expensive ( I saw a Birkin in vogue with diamonds on it's hardware. How much do you think it costs? ), it's hand crafted , it takes 2 whole weeks of dedication to produce one, and it's THE bag everyone in the fashion world admires. During a recent visit to The Comfort Shoe at Mariam Complex , I came across a Birkin look alike ( shown in the pictures above ). I have to admit, from afar the bag actually looked good. So I went in to check it out. And THANK GO...
