Lush Products

I e-mailed Lush about their products, and I received a reply in 30 minutes. The reply is below, in case its useful to anyone else ...

Thank you for taking the time to write us. We use several different ingredients that you will want to stay away from, for example Lush uses:

-Cognac Oil (this is mainly found in a few of our Christmas items)

-Fresh Wheatgrass Mucilage (in our Cosmetic Lad moisturizer)

-Wheatgerm Oil (found in our Soft Touch body butter and our Chocolate Whipstick lip balm)

-Beer (in our Cynthia Sylvia Stout Shampoo)

-Cold Pressed Wheatgerm Oil (in our Enzymion moisturizer, Skin

Here's a reply from today- June 2016. Sounds like cross contamination is a risk for all of their products because of the shared "kitchen" facility. Anyone use Lush products and have experience? 

Thank you for your email, I'd be happy to help you with this!

It is so wonderful that your daughter is looking to try Lush. We are a unique company in that our product line is constant changing and being revamped. Because of this, we don't like to have lists as they become out of date very quickly. What I recommend is checking online the ingredient list for the products that she'd be interested in. We don't have too many products that contain gluten, so that would be your best resource. Some ingredients that we use in our products that may contain gluten are: wheatgerm, wheatgrass, oats, oat milk, yeast, soya ingredients, and stout. As well, we do manufacture our products in a kitchen like facility. While we take precautions, cross contamination can happen. 

If you are curious about any product or specific range of products, please let me know and I'd be happy to answer any questions!

Have a wonderful rest of your week! 

All the best,
Lush Customer Care

I use Lush products and have never had any problems. I really like the Big shampoo. I have used the conditioners as well as body washes (It's Raining Men and Happy Hippy). I also use the mint julip (?) lip scrub and the "let's rock and roll" face scrub. No problems!
