Ingredient

Black Tea Infusion

Camellia Sinensis

Truly, there is nothing more comforting than a steaming hot brew. So, what if we add that brew to our fresh handmade products?

Black tea comes from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis shrub, native to China and grown widely across Asia. More oxidized than other types of tea, black tea tends to have a stronger flavor profile. It contains caffeine and antioxidants, which offer wonderful benefits when applied topically.

What is an infusion?

Lush makes infusions in-house, using ingredients carefully selected for the properties they impart to products. Just like making a pot of tea at home, we steep dried black tea leaves in hot water, then remove the leaves once infused. Only this time, we add the infusion to our favorite carefully balanced formulas, instead of our favorite mug.
