Hello, I am a dermatologist and the reality is that coconut oil is not even recommended for facial use. The density of that oil covers the pores and produces up to three times more oil than your skin normally produces. Besides that it irritates the inside of the skin and can infect it.

NCT In the house No I completely agree! It doesn’t come with a lid and your fingers (which have a lot more bacteria on it than you think) have to touch the product to peel the wax off. And it doesn’t even come with a lid? You know how much bacteria will get into the product?! Foundation from the dollar store would probably be more sanitary.

[@kazuhamain4290]

Audrey Hoang Yeah agree... And i feel like it’s going to break while applying on the skin I don’t know why...

[@DieAlteistwiederda]

They could even use a cardboard lid but there really should be anything over it because of dust and other stuff. You could probably cut of a tiny bit everytime you want to use it to keep it a bit more sanitary but then there is still the issue of it just melting if the room temperature goes up a bit too much.

[@sarahbobara8898]

I agree. I also believe it needs better packaging. I know Lush wants everything to be recyclable and eco-friendly but, it's not hygienic. :(

[@kazuhamain4290]

DieAlteistwiederda Yeah... And... I don’t really like the cardboard thing cuz... As is in the video, the cardboard absorbed some oil out of the foundation.... So...

[@somnia268]

EXACTLY OMG, i was just thinking that they should've put a little bit more effort in the packaging, the way it comes in the box looks soooo unsanitary and although the peelable wax thing (or whatever it's called) seems like a genius idea, it would be much better if it had an actual packaging that would protect it from getting dirty and messy

[@notsofrilly]

@@Brynwyn123 Ok, so there must be a misunderstanding. I'm not saying that plastics in the environment are a good thing. I hate it when people litter. What I'm trying to get at is that if your efforts on zero waste makes for an inferior product that falls apart if you hold it too long then it's not worth it. A better alternative would have been to put the foundation in one of there cardboard tubs. Those are recyclable. Or a biodegradable plastic case. Please note that Tina's review is the only one I saw of this product. It's not for me and my oily skin so I'm not going to look further into this product. Maybe it's a great product but Tina got a bad batch. Maybe it's a great product and the whole falling apart is just Tina.

[@jennifermoore7212]

@Alana Maloney, uh what? She meant there's so many foundations to choose from that this one from Lush just isn't worth the money. It may be environmentally friendly, but it's not sanitary nor practical. As for the last part of your comment, yea that's not really accurate. I take care of my skin, as many people do as well, and a lot of the time I don't wear foundation, but when I'm going out somewhere and want to get dressed up I'll throw some on. I'm not hiding my face lol, I just like to do a full face of makeup sometimes. That doesn't equate to not taking care of your skin though. 🤦👍🤣

[@shariwelch8760]

This was a trial run for this product. I'm sure they are listening to feedback about the packaging and everything else. There is an optional tin you can buy separately. I think the main problem is the shape and how it is awkward to hold. The package is easily dealt with, as is the shape. People are so quick to call this product unsanitary but that's not really the issue. We all have unsanitary things all over our homes, including in our makeup kits.

is the actual no-waste product not functional or is your lifestyle built around unsustainable habits? So many people cry hygiene, but as someone who works in research and microbiology, something like your lip balm comes into contact with your bacteria filled mouth and you're ok with that. every time you go swim in a lake or the sea? this formulation has negligible water content and microbes are not that easy to grow on fat and waxes. sure, things like makeup brushes actually do need cleaning due to dead skin cells and dust, but there are a lot of things we do built around unnecessary ideas of "cleanliness" that can be cut down for sustainability.

[@mynxwing8202]

I mean it’s also not hygienic or practical because if you drop it once you’re fucked. Zero waste is great, but this product wasn’t. The design needs to be revised.

[@ceciliajohnson8812]

[@marinela8933]

[@TheHestya]

Macki, you can drop a lipstick, mascara wand and anything else too.

[@nuclearclarity3778]

The problem is that if you drop it/when you need to put it down it’ll pick up the crap from the other surface and stick to the coconut oil and go into your skin again The only thing that would fix it is potato peeling the crap out of it each use 😂

[@intothepale3551]

They did p much everything wrong smfh 1. That no-waste goal can be solved with refillable containers like they do their face masks. Customers keep a nice, strong plastic container they can get sanitized and refilled at the store. This would reduce waste, ensure repeat customers, and potential discounts for recycling containers at Lush stores incentivize consumers to keep up the no waste trend 2. Coconut oil will turn off every MUA in the industry. If you can't talk to actual chemists and estheticians, at least glance at r/skincareaddiction to wake up to the ingredients consumers want to see 3. Not only is this product perceived as unhygienic for MUAs, but the 40 color shade range means very little if this entire collection excludes anyone with oily/combination/sensitive skin AND can't meet the typical Lush price point. I'm glad Lush is trying and it looks like they've pulled the product to retool it, but it's just embarrassing to see how out of touch they are when THAT was their aim and THIS was their product.

[@madeleinetanner104]

T. Mack surely they can use plant based plastic to keep packaging more sanitary

Recycling doesnt equal zero waste, imo they should make a tin twisting packaging like a gluestick and you could go there and refill it

[@Assasengirl]

as far as making it more sanitary; maybe if they dipped more of the product in wax so that more of the product was covered in wax. That way it'd be less messy and you could just peel the wax off as you needed more and it'd keep the product cleaner and fresher.

[@afxqahazmi]

So now my questions are: how would you store that foundation after using it? Back into the box? Will it melt again? Especially if it's a warm weather?

[@nataliamaliga]

Yes, the packaging could be better, but this is great for people who are environmentally friendly and want to use less wasteful products. A solution to the container would be to maybe buy a small stainless steel container (there are travel sized ones out there) and transfer the entire foundation into such a container. You'll get rid of the wax that way, and then you can ensure that the product is sealed when not in use.

[@Sofia-pu7bc]

Natalia Maliga your going to have to purchase more face clearing products once it breaks out your skin ? It was a nice thought tho from lush i wish more brands were like that.

[@BankruptMonkey]

No, even for zero waste people foundation sticks in a recycled cardboard tube are more practical and hygienic. Lush just fails at ZW packaging and designing which things can be packaging free

[@alexisbondy1308]

I love the idea of the metal container. It would be awesome if they shipped the foundation in it then you could return it to them for a discount, like with their black plastic (?) tubs for bath products

[@tootlem]

Eco friendly and zero waste products are good, but Lush’s makeup is soooo poorly made. I used to use their tints for a week until it broke me out everywhere. Coconut oil is sooo bad for acne prone and oily skin. They don’t really know what they’re doing when it comes to makeup, they should either just stick to bath products or get a cosmetic chemist who knows what the heck they’re doing

[@AbiSaysThings]

Honestly if any other company sent out a product that was literally unshippable and arrived in such a bad state people would tear into it, but people are kind of up Lush's arse. The eco-friendly angle is commendable but it sometimes comes off as a gimmick when they're charging an arm and a leg for a completely impractical product. They should probably work a bit more on refining their alternative packaging rather than just getting rid of it all.

[@artemish.957]

Just a tip from someone with overly sensitive skin, if you feel any itchiness or an immediate reaction DO NOT use a makeup wipe to remove it as they contain high amounts of alcohol as a preservative and therefore will further iritate your skin! I know it's a pain, but you're better off going in with your usual cleanser to clean your face and start again. Thanks for the interesting video! You and Beauty News have really confirmed that this is just not a practical product :)

[@alexicitlali]

Artemis Holmes usually most makeup wipes don’t contain alcohol in it and it also says it on the packaging

This would not last even a car ride. It has wax and foundation and if left in your bag would make a mess and melt together and all over your belongings. I think they need to go back to the drawing board with this. It seems like a great Idea in theory to help the environment and help create less waste however it wasn't very practical given the products shape and lack of resistance to different climate's.

Everyone complaining about the sanitary side of things.....all while using stick foundation which is the exact same concept 🙄 With that said, I wouldn’t expect much different from Lush as this concept falls in line with all their other products. In all honesty, your skin looked absolutely beautiful and radiant once you completed all products. I was extremely surprised, in fact. Love the concept and hope Lush can iron out the kinks as I truly believe a more naturally-made foundation would be well received. Possibly even the next “big thing”.

[@annieh.5049]

Amber Rangel it’s gross because there’s no cap, and if u accidentally leave it out in warm temperature the wax could melt. overall, the idea is good but executed very poorly

I agree.....I’m surprised they pkgd it the way they did 🤔 I get the recycling and all that but surely they realized what kind of damage would transpire from shipping it that way.....or maybe they didn’t? I mean, common sense would tell you it’s going to bounce around in that little box and make a big ol’ mess!

[@ceciliajohnson8812]

Very well said!

[@jamiea4350]

What gross packaging! Coconut oil will melt right off your face too!

[@nicole.m_official]

Maybe it has other ingredients that hold the foundation in place.

[@shariwelch8760]

It's not gross. All makeup has the potential for bacteria. Transfer the stick into a clean jar or tin, problem solved.

[@ItsJustLisa]

They should have sent it in their tins. The tin would be more protective and the tin reusable.

[@shim2801]

@tina you might be having a reaction to the rose hip oil in the primer. It makes my skin break out almost immediately too

[@Vndrxv]

I was skeptical when you said you reached out to Lush.. but later on the review I can see how honest you were about your experience. It’s refreshing to find a youtuber giving their real opinion. I subscribed!

[@yiann.plans.videos]

Tina, something you should take into account is the philosophy behind Lush products. They're cruelty free and plant based, which is a much better alternative to many other products which are tested on animals and with various degrees of unfriendly chemicals. In terms of packaging, better cardboard than plastic. Easily fixed with a Lush tin. For very hot countries, keep it in the fridge, like face masks. And speaking of bacteria, people should see their own 'clean' make up under a microscope and they'll be shocked. But hey, horses for courses!

[@juantrump2134]

Yiann SC lush has loads of unhealthy chemicals in it.

[@longroad11]

Juan Trump please care to explain ?

[@juantrump2134]

coats loads of articles out there, lush isn't a natural or plant based company. They are hand made, vegan and less packaging

[@PiperAlly]

Juan Trump lush doesn’t clams to be all natural. It’s a fresh, organic, and handmade brand that’s cruelty free. It’s leaning toward natural preservatives, but some products contain low amounts of synthetic preservatives. However, there’s usually a natural alternative for those who choose to avoid synthetics. As for being vegan, also not true. It’s a 100% vegetarian company and about 85% of the product range is vegan, but lush uses honey, lanolin, and eggs in some products.

[@juantrump2134]

Piper I'm not talking about what lush claims, I'm talking about lots of people that think lush is natural and organic. It's neither.

[@Angelina-vr5mz]

It would be so much better if they just put it in maybe a reusable metal or tin box without the wax (kinda like an altoids container). It might be more expensive but certainly more sanitary. And it would still cater to those who are living a zero waste lifestyle. The way it is right now is definitely unsanitary and you would never be able to bring it anywhere. And if you live in a hotter climate it won't work in general

[@4lifeiluvmusic]

Sunday yes 😊 and LUSH actually sells tin containers

[@black-nails]

@@cawfee-pv9ib well, they could use glass jar? many skin products come in glass

[@mearat.btsthepiedpiper.3250]

If they wanted to be eco-friendly they could have made a separate reusable container where you can store it.

Why didnt they make a lid for it? and how could they just send it without any plastic protector? looks unsanitary.. But Tina you look beautiful as always

[@ciloves]

Mimi M-va they are moving away from plastic I believe. I think they want to be more environmentally conscious.

[@AstrangeFeatherveryverymad]

Ci Nguyen Actually that’s the main aim of the Company.

[@mimim-va5099]

Ye I agree but there should be some protection of the product. When she opened the box it looked like someone put their nails in the foundation.

[@AstrangeFeatherveryverymad]

Mimi M-va Yeah, I like lush very much, and I think that the concept of the product and the idea behind the packaging is good. But yeah, it’s not really hygienique :/

[@mimim-va5099]

yeah:)

[@eSTeaP]

Morninga is a plant high in antioxidants and vitamins in parts of Asia and Africa we eat the leaves and drum stick in soups and can be made into powder for smoothies and since it is high in calcium it is given to people with low calcium levels. The oil is also good for the skin 👍🏼😊

[@PaigeA6741]

I’ve never been a massive fan of lush makeup but I would 100% recommend their skincare and body products like the soaps, lotions, bath products etc.

[@kathyb3712]

14:04 wow if I had skin like you Tina, I wouldn't even know when I'm finished taking all the foundation of because your skin is so perfect I see almost no difference between you wearing foundation and you not wearing any.. God I wish my skin was just nearly as flawless and perfect as yours lol

[@TheRealHappyG]

Even though Lush claim to be full of natural ingredients they aren't suitable for sensitive skin, most of the foaming products contain SLS and the natural fragrance oils can be very irritating. I really struggled to find products that would be suitable for my own sensitive skin needs, and the ones I did try were nice compared to the rest of the range, but very seasonal and unavailable at any other time. I can't even enter the physical stores due to the suffocating mashup of scents and had to order online. They have some very cute and fun products, and I love their take on skincare, but their makeup leaves a lot to be desired and it's important to not conflate "natural" with "gentle". It's worth doing your research and checking whether some ingredients are comedogenic or more likely to cause a reaction; just because it's "chemical free" doesn't make it suitable for people with sensitive skin or allergies, so read the ingredients lists carefully before purchasing.

[@happydayz7857]

HappyG agreed. I stick to their shampoo bars and conditioners, which are awesome.

[@starshipcaptain]

the most annoying thing with “chemical free” anything, for me, is that everything contains chemicals... everything is made of chemicals. if it was “chemical free” it wouldnt even exist.

[@TheRealHappyG]

OMG YES! I hate that "chemical free" tagline, green-washing can be really dangerous because it's inaccurate. Everything is chemicals, there's no such thing as "chemical free" and many "natural" substances are actually very dangerous such as cyanide and mercury.

[@starshipcaptain]

lunaxtics yea i do understand im just an angry science man 70% of the time

[@BrianaCunningham]

Australian brand Sukin is a lifesaver. Incredibly gentle, no nasties what so ever in the ingredients and cruelty free. I recommend it to anyone with very sensitive skin.

[@maryjohn8643]

The packaging is horrible! How can I put this foundation inside my makeup bag without it being smeared everywhere! U look gorgeous as usual btw love u

[@rosavanesa2399]

Ma- Adalsa I think they could at least added someting to the box so the foundation would rest so it would go everywhere

[@notsofrilly]

Put the product back in the box it came in. It's so small and thin that it shouldn't take up that much space in your bag

[@MsDecens]

notsofrilly I don't think that's what she was getting at. It'll still rattle around the little box and smear.

[@mayn8453]

[@juliareder1697]

I love their shampoo bars the honey one is so hydrating for my hair!

[@anonymousunnamed3026]

Lush is something you absolutely love, or really don't like. I think it's more important for them to be environmentally friendly rather than environmentally damaging like other beauty companies do. So instead of the over use of unrecyclable plastics, with other things like papers, glass, etc to make their packaging alluring, they would rather forego the bells and whitstles. I, personally, appreciate their minimalistic, recyclable, reused packaging. And they only use natural, vegan, cruelty free ingredients. Usually it is all handmade, as well. So, again, it's what is more important to you. A formula that has questionable ingredients, or one that has ingredients you could easily purchase without being a chemist. I feel, at this time, you have to choose what is more important to you, plus realize there will be sacrifices on either side. Your skin did look amazing before your skin reaction. But I really appreciate how fair you were to Lush even though it wasn't for you or your skin. That's why I keep returning to your channel and have for the last 2 years!

[@kerri8037]

Just FYI but not all lush products are vegan, some have honey in them.

[@firstnamelastname6016]

kerri some honey is vegan, it depends on whether it was harvested or collected. Although since they are such a big company, they might not have the time to collect honey so...

[@hschalberg]

Tina Yong I understand. Can't wait for new Tina Tries It every week! It gives me something to look forward to. 😊

[@sabrinaarellano1489]

They're trying to reduce waste which includes plastic. Their black pots are recycled when returned by caring customers who also want to make a difference. If they make smaller packaging like eos, more than likely they won't be recycled. I say they make glass pots like the ones for their lip scrubs.

[@dreigeli9636]

Tina keeps saying morninga when it's actually moringa. 😂 the mind plays tricks on us

I've tried various different foundations from Lush. I so want to love their makeup, and support their make up like. But literally every time I have used their foundation it's like a freaking oil spill on my face. It doesn't matter what I use to blend the make up, it always ends up a streaky mess. But I think a lot of people have said the same. ☹️

[@leann4265]

Sarah Green because they put an incredibly excessive amount of oils in there formulations😖

[@rashellejasminegatdula955]

Moringa is widely known here in the Philippines as "Malunggay Leaves" . Its smells really funny but has many nutritional value to it, breastfeeding moms makes soup with it to produce more milk. We drink it in tea too. It's super nutritious, we used and eat it everyday.

Hey Tina! I'm no sure if anyone has commented this as yet but I am from Trinidad (Caribbean) and it's actually Moringa pronounced Mor-ring-ga, it's a plant that is considered a super herb that had numerous health benefits ,we use it as tea and it helps with tens of health problems, so if they're using pure Moringa leaves then I assume it's gonna be really good for your skin!

lush is a NO for skin, the amount of fragrances they add are so unnecessary and bad for the skin esp acne prone skin

[@nineteenseventyfive6709]

Yeah I’d be worried about using this foundation bc of my acne... :/

[@sabrinaarellano1489]

But they don't have chemical fragrances. All the fragrances are natural. If anything Bath and Body face creams are more drying/damaging than any Lush products. Plus Lush has a bunch of products for most skin types.

[@AntoVidz8]

Sabrina Arellano yes agreed, bath and body works is on another level toxic, they should stick to pumpkin candles. However, chemical fragrance or not, it’s all in Lush’s “natural” marketing scheme. Their raw ingredients r generally unstable n have horrible PH levels. Processed scents do nothing for the skin except cause irritation.

[@skyb4657]

They don't add any 'fragrances' to any products. When it says 'fragrance' it's the blend of essential oils they use but by law they have to put 'fragrance' so that the recipe isnt stold.

[@greatcaesarsghost5065]

Exactly, the essential oils they use can cause people with sensitive skin or acne to have bad reactions. Definitely something to watch out for in any skin care or cosmetic.

[@SPookieD00kiesss]

[@SvetlanaVillegas]

The color looks great, and the overall look is very beautiful as well

[@rabsn6720]

I actually think that fine lush is environment friendly, but a lot of their designs look at being cost effective (packaging/ design and the 3 month product life for skincare) for them but generally more pricier than other products for costumers allowing them to have more cash flow! I feel like for them it’s more the business aspect that drives them by using recycled goods and saving so much money instead of those glass bottles than caring for the environment exactly. don’t know, is it just me?

[@huntsman145]

No, i feel the same way. In cosmetics generally the cost of packaging is particularly high. No packaging means lower production cost therefore a higher profit margin. Now that in itself is not a bad thing but it does make some products harder to use and unsanitary (dusting powder in cocoa butter cases, solid shower gel) I've aslo noticed there's corn flour now (so basicly filler) in the ingredient list of products that didn't use to have it .

[@Nyctophora]

It's not just you :) It's part of their USP but sometimes, like here, it doesn't work practically. I'd try this if it was in a glass jar or something, though.

[@ilikemagyar3914]

is there any case or paper to put it in because if its get dirty and melts in your makeup bag you just wasted your money of course its good its zero waist but if you have to throw it out after a few use because its destroyed its just ruins the hall pourpose of no waste ??

[@tina_yong]

I think you’ll need to put it in your own container cause the box won’t be enough to protect it

[@wnterbird2976]

No that isn't what zero waste means. Zero waste means it can be reused or biodegradable to the point that it won't stay in landfills for years (or the ocean). So it would be a waste of YOUR money. But it is still ZERO waste. Because even if you throw it out, it does nothing bad to the planet. And the case IS the box.
