As part of its Co-Create program, fresh handmade cosmetic company [Lush](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lushs-2025-eid-collection) announced the Eid al-Adha [2026](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lush-cosmetics-halloween-collection) collection—and it's launching soon to share products inspired by the rich heritage of Eid al-Adha like Baklava Soap. Inspired by a sweet Middle Eastern dessert, this soap bar shares notes of vanilla, almond and honey, plus a blend of rosewater and cocoa butter.

The Lush Co-Create product creation program aims to promote diversity, inclusion and equity by honoring the stories of communities, and this specific product collection captures the essence of the festival with traditional ingredients like cardamom, rosehip and almonds. Alongside the [Baklava Bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dar-baklava), Lush's Eid al-Adha 2026 collection includes a crescent-shaped Sukoon bath bomb, Hayl massage bar and Šipak fresh face mask, which pays homage to syrupy Šipak rosehip jam popular in the Balkans.

## Key Themes

### Why This Trend Is Growing

- **Culinary-inspired Personal Care:** Scent and flavor profiles from desserts are being translated into skincare and bath products, enabling cross-category sensory branding and novel formulation opportunities.
- **Inclusive Co-create Programs:** Community-led product development that centers cultural stories is surfacing authentic ingredients and narratives that can differentiate brands in saturated markets.
- **Festival-focused Limited Editions:** Seasonal collections tied to cultural celebrations are creating scarcity-driven demand and storytelling commerce models that can shift product lifecycle strategies.

### Industries Being Reshaped

- **Beauty and Personal Care:** Demand for culturally resonant, ingredient-forward products is prompting new sourcing, formulation, and marketing approaches that disrupt traditional mass-market beauty lines.
- **Food Fragrance and Flavoring:** The transfer of edible flavor notes into non-food applications is generating opportunities for specialized fragrance formulations and novel regulatory-compliance services.
- **Retail and Brand Experiences:** Holiday-centric, narrative-driven product launches are reshaping merchandising, pop-up and omnichannel experience design to emphasize cultural authenticity and limited availability.
