Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Whether you’re spending the day with a significant other or embarking on a full-fledged Valentine’s celebration, 14 February is all about love and the perfect excuse to engage in some serious self-care.
Thankfully, natural beauty mecca Lush is about to launch an entire range of pampering products just in time for Valentine’s Day, with everything from beloved bath bombs and lips scrubs to massage bars.
As usual the line is 100 per cent vegan and almost completely naked – meaning there’s no excess packaging. Available from 19 January, here are our favourite products from the new range that will guarantee you, or a loved one, feel super-special.
Rose Bombshell, £4.50, Lush Cosmetics
A cult classic, the Rose Bombshell bath bomb turns your water a beautiful shade of pink and leaves it bursting with fragrant petals. As it fizzes, the outer shell breaks away to release a fragrant mix of rose absolute, rose oil, Sicilian lemon and geranium oils. Even better, this year Lush has launched the Giant Rose Bombshell – a limited edition product that’s three times the usual size, for the ultimate indulgent bathtime experience.
Heart of Enlightened Expectation Bubble Bar Melt, £4.50, Lush Cosmetics
If bubbles are a must-have for your sensuous soak, this is the one for you. White and orange, the Heart of Enlightened Expectation Bubble Bar Melt softens the skin using fair trade organic cocoa butter and smells like heady geranium, jasmine and rose, to create a floral fantasy you won’t want to get out of.
Tunnel of Love Soap, £5.94, Lush Cosmetics
Perfect for a pre-date shower, lathering up with the Tunnel of Love Soap will eave you smelling like zesty lime and sweet wild orange, meaning you’re guaranteed to leave a lasting impression. It’s also infused with soothing rose water to keep you calm and collected – and kaolin, which helps to gently cleanse the skin.
Cherryish Body Scrub, £7.95, Lush Cosmetics
For a serious pamper session, investing in the Cherryish Body Scrub will leave your skin feeling super-smooth. Made using moisturising fair trade organic cocoa butter, sweet almond essential oil and fine sea salt, it comes in the form of a cream heart, which is decorated with pink cherries.
Kiss Me Quick Wash Card, £2, Lush Cosmetics
Perfect for slipping inside your significant other’s Valentine’s Day card, this clever option makes a welcome addition to any bath or shower. Made using apple pulp, spicy clove bud oil, sweet mimosa absolute and tonka bean, it is guaranteed to create a glorious lather.
The Kiss Lip Scrub, £5.95, Lush Cosmetics
If a post-date smooch is on the cards, you’re going to want to make sure your lips are looking and feeling their best. Enter, The Kiss Lip Scrub. A granular blend of fine sea salt, caster sugar and fair trade cocoa butter, this product buffs and softens the skin, while ingredients such as almond and mandarin oil add a touch of sweetness.
