The 'Hutan Limited Edition Bath Bomb' is the latest launch from Lush, marking a bold new chapter in its mission-driven product innovation. Released in celebration of World Bath Bomb Day and the brand’s 30th anniversary, this earthy green bath bomb serves as the inaugural Keystone Product -- a new line dedicated to protecting keystone species and endangered ecosystems.
Available from April 27, the Hutan Bath Bomb (named after the Indonesian word for 'forest') directly supports conservation efforts in Simeulue, Indonesia, home to the endangered Long-Tailed Macaque. With 75% of its sales (minus tax) going to grassroots organizations like EcosystemImpact Foundation, the initiative helps tackle deforestation, promote regenerative agriculture, and safeguard critical biodiversity.
Featuring a grounding fragrance and tranquil design, Hutan embodies both self-care and planetary care, reinforcing Lush’s dual commitment to environmental activism and sensorial indulgence.
