The Lush Version is a fresh take on old friends and Body Shop classics.

The new products reformulate more than a dozen of the vegan beauty chain’s top sellers across hair, body, and skincare.

Her husband Gordon, and her two daughters, Sam and Justine, were at her side.

Before her passing, Anita had revealed that she was diagnosed with Hepatitis C in 2004.

The late founder’s illness was first discovered during a routine blood test for a life insurance policy.

She had lived with the illness for more than 30 years before it was discovered – by which time she was suffering from cirrhosis of the liver.

In 2008, a year after her passing, Anita’s will revealed that she had given away all of her £51million to charity and the rest to tax.
