Trailer for #497: Sustainability Leads to Better Products - with Lush Founder, Rowena Bird

Rowena Bird is the Lush Co-Founder, a pioneer in the British beauty industry, and a lady of many passions. She trained and qualified as a beauty therapist before joining the creators of Lush in their small manufacturing company at that time. Lush emerged from the demise of a previous venture, Cosmetics To Go, which collapsed through a combination of over-trading and flooding. The goal was to create cosmetics that were as natural as possible while avoiding the use of synthetic preservatives. As a result, every Lush product is packed with high-quality - and, more importantly, organic. Lush encourages and supports the development and validation of non-animal test methods, and will actively advocate for their use rather than outdated and cruel animal experiments.   Join us this Wednesday for this brand-new episode with Rowena Bird!
