As revellers adorn their homes with cempasúchil garlands, you can adorn your skin with marigold infusion and a little sparkle. The vibrant color and fragrance of this beautiful blend reminds us that death in pre-Hispanic culture was not seen as something bad but as a process of transformation. May it also bring you joy on gloomy mornings or dark evenings.
Co-Create is a product creation program for Lush staff, aiming to promote diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging by lifting up authentic stories from respective communities. Co-Creator Gio Alvarado from our UTC shop in San Diego shares the inspiration behind this particular product.
"Cempasúchil Shower Gel is inspired by the cempasúchil flowers that are used to decorate ofrendas for Día de Muertos. The Aztecs believed their ancestors used the scent of the flower to find their way back to their loved ones. Today, they are still used for the same purpose, making beautiful crafted garlands and using petals to make pathways or bridges to guide the spirits back home.”
