Rouge

Reformulated (again) with your feedback! We’ve increased the cocoa butter levels again, so you can get back to the color you love.

Glaze your hair strands with our henna hair dyes, varnishing the outer-layer of your hair with a tone of your choice. Try this beautiful henna and hibiscus brick to turn blond or red hair a vibrant shade of copper, or add spicy red hair color tones to darker hair.

Rouge will give fiery copper hues to blonde and red hair, warm red tones to brunettes and adds a subtle, glossy warmth to very dark heads of hair. Use over greying hair for a warm, twinkly highlights effect, or as an essential base before applying Lush's Noir, Brun or Marron Henna hair dye to fair, white or greying hair. If you desire the reddest version of Rouge, be sure to use our reusable Henna Hair Wrap throughout the development process. Got a burning question?

What's in it for you?

- Our 100% natural hair dye is ideal if you have an existing hair dye allergy, are looking for a safer alternative to synthetic hair dye or just want shiny, healthy hair.

- Henna contains a pigment called lawsone that has an affinity to the keratin in your hair. It adheres to the cuticle, adding a layer of sheer color without changing your natural hair color. This will very gradually fade over time. Henna can be used to help bind other materials to the hair like the hibiscus in Rouge, which brings added depth and vibrancy to your color.

- We add cocoa butter, which softens and aids slip through the hair, and enables us to make a solid, self-preserving product.

Leaving the world Lusher than we found it

Synthetic hair dyes contain chemicals known as aromatic amines that are not only associated with health risks, but may bioaccumulate in our ecosystem. Hair salon wastewater has been found to contain color molecules unconsumed by the dye process, as well as mutagenic byproducts, that are not believed to be effectively removed from our water systems. Choosing a plant-based, ppd-free hair dye like Lush henna reduces the number of these materials in circulation.

How to store: Your henna brick will arrive in a beautiful recycled paper packaging, with designs inspired by intricate patterns of lace from the Italian Renaissance. Keep your henna brick in its wrap in a cool, dry place, ready for when you use it. Henna bricks are best used fresh and you can put any leftover melted henna in your compost. To continue our commitment to reduce single use plastic, your henna will no longer come with plastic gloves. Please protect your hands with your trusty reusable rubber gloves.

Melt Warning: This product was made to melt on contact with skin which means it also melts easily in warmer weather. We recommend picking it up in-store rather than having it delivered.

Do not use in the area of the eye. Do not use on cut or abraded scalp.
