Squeakwi? No. Skiwi? No, no, no… Squeaky clean with kiwi! Yes, that’s it.

Where do we get it?

Nearly all of our fresh fruit and vegetables are purchased from the same specialist distributor, whom Lush UK has been working with since 2005. Depending on the time of year, they source products from different countries to try and have availability all year round. They work hard to supply as many organic products as possible and provide the highest quality available the rest of the time.

With seven manufacturing sites across the globe, this information may vary depending on where your Lush products were made.

What are the benefits of kiwi fruits in skin and hair care?

  • Much like pineapples (with bromelain) and papayas (with papain), kiwis contain an enzyme called actinidin that dissolves and removes dead skin cells. A powerful exfoliation that leaves the skin cleansed and shiny!
  • Kiwis are packed with vitamins and minerals. They contain more vitamin C than oranges, a good amount of antioxidant vitamins E and A, and potassium. This cocktail maintains the skin and the scalp in healthy conditions.

Adopted national treasure

The kiwifruit history is unusual and quite recent. The fruit originates from China where it was known but not really consumed, except for medicinal purposes. It was not until the early 20th century that ‘plant hunter’ E. H. Wilson attempted to introduce it to Europe and the United States, where it had little success, but only as an ornamental. Meanwhile, seeds found their way to New Zealand, and the country saw commercial potential in the fruits. After calling them ‘Chinese gooseberries’ for a while, they came to rename them ‘kiwi’ in the 1960s, after their national bird whose feathers and general appearance is somewhat reminiscent of the fruit.
