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 :)

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
