Examples of Lush cover letters
When applying for a position at Lush, your cover letter is an opportunity for you to tell your story, without being stuck in the formatting constraints of the resume. The best format for writing a cover letter is as follows:
- Address the employer with a formal salutation. For example, “Dear/Hello (name of the recipient).” If you do not know the recipient’s name, you can refer to them as the hiring manager.
- The next step is to state the position you are applying for and how you found the opening.
- Make a brief statement about why you’re interested in the position. Write a paragraph about why you are the perfect candidate for the job.
- State your skills and work experience. Ensure your skills and experiences are similar to the job position. When highlighting skills, provide the accomplishment you have achieved.
- Conclude your letter with a forward-looking statement. For example, “I look forward to discussing the position further.”

“Dear LUSH Cosmetics Hiring Manager:
It has been a long-time dream of mine to work for LUSH, ever since stepping foot in the store at the tender age of 12! Upon discovering that Lush is hiring for the position of Seasonal Sales Ambassador at the Chinook location, I was overjoyed at the thought of experiencing my first professional job at the store that has impacted my life so profoundly. I firmly believe that the dedication, passion, curiosity, energy, and optimism I bring to the table makes me an excellent candidate for the job.
One of my fondest memories involves becoming friends with a girl (who is now a close friend of mine) and immediately bonding over our mutual love of LUSH, specifically the Mask of Magnaminty and Cup o’ Coffee scrub. The beginning of my friendship with this girl, which sprouted from our first conversation over a mutual love for LUSH, inspired me to stop being shy and overcome my social anxieties. This was a pivotal point in my life that helped me to grow tremendously into the social, upbeat, confident person that I am today.
My love for LUSH has grown tenfold over the years, not only for the products but also for the company’s morals and values, which I strongly resonate with. As a huge human and animals rights activist, the ethics that LUSH upholds is, to me, the most important thing. With so many companies exploiting human labour and animals for testing, It is refreshing to see a company like LUSH that has so much consideration for these issues when developing and selling products. I love what the company stands for and would be honoured to have the opportunity to be a part of that.
My goal career is to become a cosmetic dermatologist; this stems from a love of skincare at a young age and a desire to help others feel confident and comfortable in their body. Seeing as how recommendations of LUSH products from employees— such as Angels on Bare Skin, which played an essential part in helping to clear my acne during middle school (a time of insecurity in everybody’s life) —changed my perception of myself and my body, I know that through working at LUSH I can get a head start on fulfilling this passion of mine.
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter, I look forward to hearing from you soon!”

Application for Sales Associate
Dear Hiring Manager,
In today’s customer service driven society, friendly, detail-oriented, and timely service is a sought-after part of any business looking to grow successfully. Every company wants great reviews and repeat business, so why not hire team members?
I earned my marketing degree learning that without customers, your business doesn’t exist and without happy customers, your business will fail. Throughout my internships with Disney World and Enterprise Rent-A-Car, I learned how to field questions and concerns from all kinds of people while maintaining a cheerful, problem solving attitude. I thrive on meeting and exceeding the needs of customers, providing them with exceptional experience and leaving them wanting to return.
I am passionate about everything I do in life and I love to motivate all around me. I thrive on hard work and achievement. Details and creativity are my best assets. Being a successful problem-solver leaves me fulfilled at the end of each day.
I am exactly who you are looking for to fill this sales role. I have attached my resume along with this letter. Thank you for taking the time to consider me and I look forward to hearing from you soon and starting my journey with LUSH.
Kind regards,
Ryan Switzer”
