I was out Christmas shopping today and the woman at the till noticed my keffiyeh, came over to me and told me about their watermelon slice soap where the proceeds go to supporting mental health for Gaza's kids.

Of course I'm not normally someone to shill for companies but I thought this was a very nice gesture and very different than most bloodthirsty corporations that unapologetically support the Genocidal Entity.

Honestly I don't know the fine details or exactly what projects/groups it goes to, but if you're out Christmas shopping (last minute like I am) maybe mozy on down to Lush.

Lush uses israeli olive oil in at least some of their products

The lush website refers to the brand, Sindyanna, as an "Israeli and Palestinian" team. That brands website says they're made of Israelis and Israeli Arabs and they use Palestinian land to produce the oil and focus on "coexistence" instead of liberation.

Lushs website also says they use "Palestinian" olive oil sometimes but doesn't give a brand name and it's unclear if they actually mean olive oil produced by Palestinians and then processed and sold by Israelis
