The campaign officially launched on 19 January and, to kick things off, the progressive beauty company posted a shot of a gay couple together in a bath tub enjoying (what we assume to be) a bubble bath courtesy of Lush’s epic bath balls.
They followed this picture by posting one of a lesbian couple. The Huffington Post notes that the caption was a nod to those who participated in the recent Women’s Marches: “To everyone marching today, time for some well deserved bubbles!”
