Lush carries foundation now?

By icyabstract · March 21, 2010 · 15 Comments ·

Okay I should really be doing my homework but somehow for no rhyme or reason I cruised over to the Lush UK website and this immediately caught my eye!

Out of curiosity I clicked on it and found out that this is a foundation/tinted product that Lush calls their Color Supplment. You can mix this into your moisturizer to produce a tinted moisturizer or use it alone as a spot concealer or foundation - that's what I gather from reviews and the description.


(click to enlarge)

It comes in 4 different shades, 2 that cater to people with undertones and another 2 for people with yellow undertones. I am not entirely sure if this functions more as a foundation or a tinted moisturizer. If in the case of the latter, the shades would not be that significant since most tinted moisturizers are sheer and you can get away with shades lighter or darker then your actual skintone.

I have tried googling around but there are very little sources reporting on this product.
It must be very new?

Even if there are mentions on it, there aren't any swatches just yet and we all know product shots on websites are only that reliable.
If you are interested, Musings of A Muse did a mention on this though she is currently waiting to get her hands on her order, so no swatches, just a mention.

If you head over to the Lush Color Supplement product page, you are able to read reviews left by the users and it seems most of them are quite positive. Each shade provides a new page of reviews.

I have to admit I am actually very intrigued by this product and am this close to hitting the check out button. But I shan't, only cause I do wish to wait for more reviews to surface and also swatches and shade comparisons. Judging from photos I think I'm probably a Dark Yellow? Only because the Light Yellow really does look very light...

What do you think? Interested in this product, waiting for reviews or just giving it a pass?

And of course Lush did not ask me to write about this (:
Thanks for reading!

Wow. When I saw your title of this post, I was like What? It just sounds weird to me that they are venturing into foundation since their cosmetics line didn't really survive and shut down last time. They were under Lush but called a different name. Haha.

Thats... very interesting. I heard that the Lush B Never line, which is their beauty/cosmetic branch of the company, was going to be in the regular Lush store or something? I dunno, but I'm definitely interested in this product. I think I'd be a dark yellow, too. Smiling But just like everyone else, I'm gonna wait for more reviews.

Soph and Sara: Yeap! I think mine might have been dark yellow too ... havent opened it either

Super interesting is it not! I can't wait for reviews too and I think I'll wait for some reviews before I purchase it. Just in case it's not entirely good though the reviews on the site seem promising....

rinyo: Yeap that's why there are bringing in more cosmetic-ish products into their range, starting with the lip scrubs and now this. Pretty exciting to see what else they would carry over!

retail_therapy & cocomotion: Yeap just Sophia's post on it, can't wait to see what you guys think about it! I'll wait for the review before thinking if I should purchase. I thought it was a tinted moisturizer too, but some say otherwise? I have no idea what this product really is. Lol.

Can't wait for the review

liana123: I'm pretty sure it would be available at most Lush stores real soon. From the price I saw online (7 pounds) it seems okay, but I just hope the jar isn't too small in person... though I haven't seen any negative reviews pertaining to the size so I think it should be okay.

Ange Demon013: Thus far I've only seen it on the UK site. I haven't checked the US site, but it's not on the HK site too. I'm thinking to get it from the HK site if they have it since shipping is a lot cheaper. Cant wait for reviews too!

I didn't knew that the sample Joey gave us was this product! Until Sophia mention it! lolx
I swatch a bit of my hand... feel very moisturizing! I have to try it soon.

everbluec: Yeah it's so cool she got her hands on it and handed you guys a sample, so timely too! Since now I can hear reviews from you guys which is great cause of the same climate we have and all that stuff. Laughing out loud Yay!~
