Lucid's origin story
Hey, I'm Csilla. I didn’t start Lucid because I'm some wellness guru - I was just a 24-year-old chasing my fashion dreams in London until reality hit me like a train. Turns out, "The Devil Wears Prada" wasn't playing around... The relentless stress and toxic hustle landed me with Graves' disease, an autoimmune disorder causing anxiety, fatigue, and brain fog that pills alone couldn't fix.
Desperate for relief, I stumbled into the world of functional mushrooms and adaptogens—reishi to calm my anxiety, lion's mane to clear the fog, cordyceps for an energy boost. It wasn't just effective; it was a game changer. But let's be real, swapping my morning espresso for mushroom coffee? Hard pass. Supplements? Nope, couldn’t stick to pills. So, I did what any resourceful human would - I pressed those mushrooms into delicious fruit and nut bars, and boom, Lucid was born.
Lucid is your new best friend, designed to effortlessly slide into your grab-and-go lifestyle. Our bars blend 100% natural, premium ingredients with adaptogens and functional mushrooms to support your mind and body, helping you show up as your best self - whether you're crushing meetings, sweating it out at yoga, or bouncing back after one too many Friday-night mimosas. Life moves fast; we help you keep up.

Made w/ Love
Made in the UK
Alright, let's clear something up—because we get asked this all the time. YES, we're proudly made in the UK! Maybe it's because none of us actually sound British? Honestly, we've started dragging Csilla's boyfriend to our events just to reassure people (he's literally as English as it gets - love you Liam!).
But jokes aside, while we could pinch pennies manufacturing abroad, we're committed to developing, manufacturing, and packaging everything right here in the UK. Why? Because we're proud to support British industries, local businesses, and real jobs.
Making Greta Proud
Doing Our Part
Until we colonise another planet, this rock is our only home, and we want to protect it. Manufacturing locally helps reduce our carbon footprint, and eco-friendly packaging helps tackle the landfill crisis. The packaging for our bars can be recycled, but not by every recycling facility, so we’re not quite where we want to be. Yet. We're currently in the process of becoming B Corp certified and should have our certification by the end of 2025. Plus, we're about to roll out initiatives that dedicate a portion of our revenue to replanting trees and removing plastic waste from our oceans. Our vision for the future includes becoming fully vertically integrated—growing our mushrooms indoors, producing everything in-house, and running entirely on clean energy, bringing us closer to complete sustainability. Sustainability is a journey, and we're fully committed to getting there.
What You See Is What You Get
Lab-Tested Ingredients
Unlike some brands, we take full responsibility for the quality of our products. That’s why we use a quality assurance lab certified by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) to ensure our suppliers provide only the highest quality ingredients that meet our ridiculously high standards.
This means what’s written on the label is exactly what you get. No BS.
Don't Miss Out!
It's Just The Beginning
We're young dreamers with big ambitions: to lead a wellness revolution by making functional ingredients as accessible as your daily coffee or evening drink—but way better for you. Lucid's vision is simple yet bold: we want you to grab calm, focus, energy, or whatever else you need, exactly when and where you need it. We're creating a world where choosing wellness feels as effortless (and far more rewarding) as reaching for your usual go-to fixes.
We're also committed to giving back along the way. As part of our dedication to transparency and positive impact, we've already donated thousands of pounds' worth of products to initiatives focused on mental health and wellness. And as Lucid grows, our pledge grows too—committing to support meaningful causes that empower both mind and body.
