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!

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 :)

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

Amazing Alia

Several months ago I posted about Alia Designs , a Kuwaiti talented designer of traditional clothes and dresses. Back then, I liked one of the items featured on her website. This time I'm going ga-ga over her latest Ramadan collection of Kaftans and darraa'at! Especially the one shown here on the first picture. Looks very young, comfortable, and oh-so-perfect for after futoor! For inquiries please visit the website or call (+965) 642-7400.
