GIVEAWAY, Review, Photos: The Body Shop Lily Cole Makeup Collection – Cruelty-Free Cosmetics Available In Pulse Boutiques
When I was a young teenybopper, hanging around the Paramus Park Mall, I shopped at The Body Shop. It was the first place I learned about skin and body care and of course my first obsession: makeup! As a 14-year-old, I can’t say that most department stores were teenager-friendly. The testers at The Body Shop though were all out in the open, and it was encouraged to try all the different products; I really learned a lot. The makeup range back then was spear-headed by Barbara Daly. Why am I mentioning this name you ask? Well, she did Princess Diana‘s makeup for her wedding. So, anything that was related to Lady Di, I needed to get my hands on.
Flash forward ten, fifteen, twenty years and new stores have opened up, come and gone. I had stopped going to The Body Shop. I suppose I had moved on to the next best thing. Newer stores seemed more open, and modern. I had abandoned my first love and had moved on to others. I always felt sad when I would walk past The Body Shop — kind of like dissing an old friend. But, I felt she just didn’t have anything new or interesting to offer me any longer.
Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to go to an event to reintroduce the public to The Body Shop. I was intrigued and decided to go. As I walked into the new boutique room, I was struck at how clean, modern and elegant all the packaging and testing areas looked. It was bright, sunny and fresh! The whole concept is based on the “Pulse” — the “Pulse” being the heartbeat of the community, therefore Pulse Body Shop boutiques. The first thing that caught my eye was a bulletin board promoting an animal cruelty campaign with the organization Cruelty-Free International. I was horrified to read that 80% of countries worldwide still allow animal testing. As a staunch animal lover, this made me sick. One of the new additions that The Body Shop will have will be a community bulletin board to promote such causes like stopping animal testing, as well as local events and causes in the community. So, each store really gives back to the community that they are in. They also have a sign up sheet so everyone can pledge their commitment to do away with animal testing for good.
As for the new store concept as a whole, I was so in love with it! The main table with all of the fragrances and body lotions looks like a cooking table, hence the name Anita’s Table. The concept is based on how the company got its start: in the kitchen of founder Anita Roddick. When you walk into the store there is a welcome wagon, showcasing all new fresh goodies — their body lotions and my favorite, the body oils. These particular oils can be used on the skin, hair and body. So nourishing and they make your hair look and smell yummy!
As a makeup artist and animal lover, their new makeup range is 100% cruelty-free. The new makeup range has just launched this month and was co-designed in part by British supermodel Lily Cole. The entire range is adorable. Don’t let the cute packaging and ladybugs fool you. This is a hard-working, multitasking line. From the Lip and Cheek Domes (15.00) to the Shimmer Cubes ($22.00), this line might be cheeky looking but it’s all business. My favorite picks from the line are the Lip and Cheek Domes in Pinch Me Pink and Crazy For Coral. They look bright in the dome, but, unlike other cream products, they are sheer and give you that dewy flushed look we all desire. I also loved the Puff On Radiance powder ($22.00).
Celebrity makeup artist Chase Aston and model create a Body Shop look
Again, packaged in a dome, this product when applied with the powder puff gives you just enough pearly radiance. No disco ball shimmer here, just a soft candlelit glow. This cosmetic range does not contain any bug shells — gross, right? — that were used to extract color for the products. Also, no fish scales were used to impart any shimmer — just mineral mica and binding agents made from natural vegetable materials, instead of fish scales. And lastly, NO ANIMAL HAIR was used to make any of the makeup brushes. All artificial hair was used, so no goats or ponies had to be shaved for the brushes.
Last but not least, I was most impressed with how The Body Shop put their money where their mouth is. Often you find out about different charity organizations that raise so much money, yet that money intended for certain recipients never quite makes it to where it is supposed to go. The Body Shop is passionate about using natural resources, giving back to the community and helping others in need. Launched in 1987, the Community Fair Trade policy was born. Through this partnership, The Body Shop is able to access nature’s finest ingredients which are grown and harvested by local farmers. For example, The marula oil, which I had mentioned earlier, is an oil that is harvested by local women in Namibia. Harvesting and partnering with The Body Shop enables these women and countless others to build a better life for themselves and their communities.
Run don’t walk to your local Body Shop, so much to do and see. It’s a place where you can go meet with friends, meet new people, learn new things all while pampering your body in the process. The new Pulse Body Shop boutiques. Definitely NOT The Body Shop of our youth… It’s even better. Find out more information on products and where to find a store near you at www.thebodyshop-usa.com.

I love the Body Shops whipped body creams. They are thick and have great scents that linger on you. When I first went into this store I was surprised to see that we could test products and had so many choices and scents to choose from. Thanks
I live in a small town where there isn’t any Body Shop! I have ordered online and i love their eyeshadow quad with neutral colors! thanks for the giveaway!
I love The Body Shop thick, creamy lotions, being peach and citrus fragances my top 2 options. My first visit to a Body Shop was while on a student trip in Europe and by the end of the trip my products were gone and my roomate and other female students were as impressed and “hooked” to them as myself. Keep the good work!
T
The body shop memories I had was when they had a $5 coupon to get anything in the store and a coupon for a free hand sanitizer. That made me happy. My favorite product is FLORAL ACAI BODY BUTTER DUO it smells so good and makes my skin feel smooth. Thanks for the giveaway.
Oh, TBS. You were also my first love. I remember walking through my town’s open air mall when I was in 7th grade, and being able to smell The Body Shop from, like, a block away. They had a coconut oil solid back then, for shiny hair, that smelled AMAZING. My then best friend had long, loooong, thing blond hair, and when she used it, it just lit up the entire room. So I bought a tin, hoping for the same thing. Nope. On my medium length thick brunette hair, it all just sort of gobbed up and made me look like I hadn’t showered. Which, to be fair, it was 7th grade. I probably hadn’t.
On the other hand, they also made a raspberry bubble bath back then that I hoarded like crazy, and they did an avocado body butter some years ago that was my introduction to my beauty product true love, avocado oil. (They discontinued it almost immediately, but it’s ok – I literally by the stuff by the jug these days.)
I haven’t stopped in there in forever (I also haven’t been to a mall in forever. Coincidence? I think so.), but it sounds like they’re still doing awesome things!
oh myyyyyyy…my first memory of Body Shop was when i fell in LOOOOVE with their ANANYA line…sadly they have discontinued it…i wish they would bring it back…that scent made me fall in love with TBS!!
I love the body butters! My favorite is the Sumatra Orange. It smells edible and lasts forever!
My favorite Body Shop memory was a few months ago Bath and Body Works had this promotion of where you buy $10 worth of products and you get the body lotion for free. I wanted to go but I didn’t have time to. My favorite Body Shop products are the lipglosses and lipsticks because you
can put on lipstick first, then the lipgloss to have full pouty lips.
I LOOOOVVVVEEE their Rainforest Radiance Hair detangling spray! I had one bottle cause I bought it at New York. It works really well, for my hair.
the body butters are amazzzzing!
I like their duo butters! They smell so good! And yummy! I aslo like their coconut butters!
My fave product of theirs is the Brazil Nut Body Butter. I remember their products from when I was a teenager.
I like Brazil Nut Conditioner. The smell is fabulous. Also a big fan of Japanese Washing Grains.
i love it
Never have been to the body shop but would be excited to try out their products
I love all EOS products! From lip balms to shampoos, it never lets me down. From silky smooth hair, to silky smooth hands, this company will always impress me
<3
I love all their products
I first started using Body Shop in college in 1989, you had to mail order because there was no on line shopping! I still have an eyeshadow brush from there that I use everyday and absolutely love. My all time favorite product was the banana shampoo and conditioner, smelled so good and was awesome!!
I absolutely love the body butters. They smell SO good and the scent lasts all day in comparison to some others that only last the first 5 minutes after application. Love it.
I’ve always big a huge fan of the Cranberry scent that comes out during the holidays. Such a great smell!
My earliest memories of going into The Body Shop were to buy gift baskets for my daughter’s school friends for birthdays, etc. Grapefruit body wash to the instant hit! My son loved the animal-shaped hand/bath soaps…the blue whale was his favorite. My favs were the scented body butters…
Oh my gosh I so remember LOVING the Body Butter!
I love their body butters. I love the Japanese Cherry Blossom. It smells amazing!
When I was a teenager we used to always go to the Body Shop and ooo and ahhhh over everything!
I live in a small town with no Body Shop close by, but my friends buys your stuff online. I like her stash of whipped creams she has from The Body Shop. I would be interesting in trying some more of your products
Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I have so many body shop memories! When I was around 6th grade, I became obsessed with their lotions and potions, and how they were cruelty free. But I’d have to say my favorite products are the foot scrubs.
There used to be a Body Shop where my mom used to work and the staff was super cool-thats how I got hooked on the Watermelon Lippy. So good!
http://www.thebodyshop-usa.com/makeup/lip-gloss/watermelon-born-lippy.aspx
Favorite memory…getting a gift basket filled with Body Shop products for Christmas when I was a teenager….as well as my friends. it was the IT gift!
I love the body butters , help my skin stay soft year round.
Love Body Shop, used to get the hair balm often, then I moved
The body butters are my most favorite. I remember the first time I visited the shop, they had so many great varieties that I could not choose just one, I ended up buying 4 great body butters, which I totally loved.
I love the whipped creams. I love animals deeply and cruelty free line is awesome! I am sharing this article and hope to win!
I have loved body shop for ages !!! No store close enough !
\
Wish I had one of these stores near me, but that could be dangerous too.
My favorite memory of The Body Shop is that every birthday my Mom & I would go there to pick out a Body Butter. It became a tradition of ours. Their products are so amazing! My favorite is the Coconut & Mango Body Butter
my mom always had the mango (I think it was mango) body butter from the body shop. I always remember sneaking in her bathroom and covering myself in it because I loved the smell so much. Of course she always knew I has gotten into her secret stash because she could smell me… She never got mad though, she would always just laugh about it.
I love their body creams, so soft and I like that part that it’s cruelty free! I have preferred organic and cruelty-free.
I have so many great memories, with The body shop. However, I would have to say my favorite and most treasured memory is my first trip to the body shop. I went with my best friend and well we had no idea where we were walking into. We simply thought the name was interesting. As we went about the store we discovered we either hated it or loved it. Guess who loved it. That’s right, I fell in love and I’m not afraid to say it. Unfortunately, I’m not able to go as often as I would like so when I do I make sure to enjoy every minute!
As far as a favorite product goes, I love their lipsticks and the gorgeous colors they come in. couldn’t as for a better quality. Highly recommend. 
I would love to try these products! Thanks!!
I love the aquatic and fresh scents and being a makeup addict, am pleased to know that these products are cruelty free!
My cousin brought me a Strawberry Parfait lip balm home from London on a trip in the late 80′s. I was so mesmerized at the scent and texture. I was 12. The closest store was 7 hours away in Atlanta. Within a year, I had made a pilgrimage happen! Then, we got one here in Nashville. I became a coconut hair pomade fan and used it on my body and hair throughout my twenties. Now that I have a one year old, I am very concerned about the products I use on her so The Body Shop is my go to place for safe, eco-conscious products. I can’t wait to try this new line!
I never got the chance to try this but would love to win this
Have never tried The Body Shop so entering in hopes to try and makr somr future memories. I will definitely have to locate one near me after all the wonderful reviews.
I love the body lotions. I loved white ginger but it has long been discontinued.
I love the body shop! I never really knew about it until I saw a store open up at menlo park mall! I fell in love with their skin care line!! My face was really bad for about a year..and I was always embarassed to go oyt until I started using their seaweed line. It cleared up my skin so nicely! I will never use anything but this line! Its amazing!
Luv luv luv body butter my fav is the mango I don’t go a day without it on ..these products look yummy also ..good luck everyone
I used to love going with my girlfriends in high school. It always seemed clean, fresh and natural. I love the body conditioner you use in the shower!
I lovelovelove their Mango Body Butter! I can’t get enough.
the way it smelled
So funny reading your memory because that is exactly what I’m about to say (well a few years older) but my BFF & I use to go to the mall after school & always spend the most time at The Body Shop, smelling all the wonderful products. That’s where I first tried body butter & realized my skin no longer had to feel dry or scratchy.
I have tried some of the body care from the Body Shoppe and loved it. I would love to try more of their collection and their makeup.
Their Sandalwood perfume oil was my favorite
one of my first lotions was White Musk! and my favorite now is Satsuma…so juicy!
I think my first introduction to The Body Shop was at Christmas in the late 1990′s – I got a variety of travel-sized products as a gift from a co-worker. It was all in a canvas drawstring bag, that I still have to this day. I fell in love with products and although I don’t shop there much anymore, I do still like their products
It’s hard to pick a face because I love everything! You were my first and I can’t break my addiction to your products!
I have never been able to go to them or use their products, which is a bummer because from reading all the comments, I’m getting super jealous!! Shared with my friends
)
I have never tried these products, but I love trying out new products, will share. good luck to me and everyone else.
Hey BeautyStat, thanks for doing the Body Shop Giveaway, and don’t worry, I’ve already liked you on Facebook and invited a couple of friends. I love the Body Shop, it’s a great place to find remedies. I especially like the hand sanitizers, because it actually rids the hands from germs, unlike other brand-name hand sanitizers. I currently own one bottle of each scent: Satsuma, Strawberry, Lemon, Mango, and the newest scent – Coconut. The scents are incredibly amazing and are great to use after a Human Anatomy Lab. I began coming into the Body Shop store after a recommendation from a lab friend to use the hand sanitizers due to its welcoming scents, which overpowers the stinky lab smell. If I win five products from the New Lily Cole Cruelty-Free Body Shop Makeup line, I’ll make a YouTube video reviewing BeautyStat and the makeup line. Thank you.
love the body butters. would love to try the makeup dont really know much about it
I don’t have any memories about this brand because i have never try Body Shop before.We dont have store in my town and none near.Iam really would love to win!Awesome giveaways!Thank you!
Satsuma is my favorite but they used to have a melon and a cucumber that I adored!
I haven’t used any Body Shop products in years.With kids come sacrifices, lol. Anyway, when I did use their stuff, I absolutely loved their body butters. Very luxurious, never greasy. I really appreciate their cruelty-free commitment and their dedication to using pure, all-natural ingredients. Thanks Body Shop. I’ll have to renew my commitment to shop there again….and more often.
I love all the scent options and the whipped body cream!
I love the body shop ts such an under rated brand that provides high quality holistic cosmetics even before harsh chemical free cosmetics were in vogue. My fondest memory of the body shop was being allowed to apply makeup for the first time and my moth instinctively taking me to the body shop over every other cosmetics brand to get me started. It was then that I had my first makeover which set off a love and obsession for beauty products. In short the body shop is what made me a makeup addict.
the body scrubs and body creams are amazing! I love all of them!
I love the body butters. they’re spectacular and so creamy. The Satsuma one and the peach one. the new products look fantastic.
I have never tried this brand yet but I would love to try it, sounds like an amazing line. Thanks
Also I love the body shops liquid eyeliners. They seem to have the best consistency and the applicator is very stiff making it easy to use and manipulate. If I win I will make a very detailed and thorough review of the products and place the review on youtube.
I like the lip butter products, they smell great. I invited my friend to the facebook page as well.
I love the Minerals powder and Extra Virgin Minerals powders. For a long time I was looking for foundations and powders that don’t irritate or brakes my skin out. Then one day while I was in the mall to pick up my monthly supply of skin primer Matte It…(BTW I love).I purchased 408 ROSE CARAMEL and not only is the shine gone but no more breakouts that should be the name of it, No more Breakouts.
It has to be the “body butter”. It smells heavenly and leaves my very dry skin smoothe and silky! There are so many scents to choose from.
My first memory is receiving a bottle of Tea Rose perfume oil. I love the scent so much. You could custom blend the scent into any one of their unscented body products. I would always get their shower gel and have one of their sales associates add a few drops in to lightly scent it. I still own that original bottle and use it sparingly; I sure wish they still made it.
My mom use to work for The Body Shop corporate office in Wake Forest, NC as a payroll manager, and I remember when she use to bring me home stuff from there. I loved the body butter! That place is great! I miss using their products! And I love the fact that they don’t test on animals!
i love you body butter and lip product…=)
The first time I visited a Body Shop store was in 1989 in New York City. I purchased a cherry lip balm in a little jar. I just loved it! Then, Body Shop stores opened in the Midwest where I live. I’ve been hooked on Satsuma Body Wash for at least 15 years.
I loooove the coconut body butter, but I haven’t tried any of their makeup! (I’d love to, though!)
I love love love the Tea Tree line from The Body Shop! If I have pimples or an acne coming up, I’d put some of the tea tree oil on it before I go to bed, then when I wake up, tah-dah it looks so much better! It works amazingly well. The tea tree toner is very fine too! I also fall in love with the Vitamin C eye reviver duo. The Vitamin E Sink-in Mask is awesome too!
The Body Shop also has many interesting event like Spin The Wheel that if you are lucky you can buy 3 get 3 free! And I did many time!
I love love love the lotions, especially Japanese Cherry Blossom. The body butters are fantastic too…
I have only tried the different scents of the body butter and love how it makes my skin feel. I would love to try the makeup also.
I love the body butters, especially the Sumatra Orange!
I have never used any bodyshop products, because I don’t order makeup online because you just don’t know what kind of condition it will be in when it finally ships out… And there’s no bodyshop store anywhere near me haha. I watch several makeup gurus on youtube, and have seen many of bodyshop’s products used in their videos. I always love the smoothness of the lipsticks and balms, they look so awesome. One of my friends actually has some of your foundation (I forget which one) and her complexion isn’t very even, but the minute she puts that stuff on it’s like BAM… beautiful, flawless face. I hate her for it. But anyways, I really love bodyshop’s products, but I’ve never used them myself. Dying to try them all, love, love, love!!
My best memories of the body shop are walking into the store, being greeted by friendly employees inviting us to go to the different tables which contained all different products and test them freely on ourselves. The store was always very bright, neat and clean which was refreshing. I have never seen this before. I particularly loved all the body oils they had and you could create your own oils mixing different scents together until you were happy with the final product. No other store to my knowledge does that. This way, you can customize scents and products for yourself and create your own signature scent. It was always so much fun going there and best of all, no one ever pressured you or rushed you out of the store.

I have never used the body shop products but I do only buy cruelty free products. I stopped buying products thst test on animals, clorox is a big offender. I learned to make my own cleaning products. Vinegar is very versatile! I would love to try their make up! Thank you for the chance to win.
old school dewberry bath oil and sandalwood. the shampoos with macedamia nut oil, I used the Body shop as my beauty store as soon as it opened and have ever since.
Body butter really makes my dry skin smooth for an entire day (:
My first memory was when my husband bought me a gift basket full of all kinds of goodies. I love their body butter and hair products Thanks for the chance.
When i was a teenager ….. there were no Body Shops:0) But I like the fact that you can try out produucts in the shops and I love the body butters! I don’t get a chance to splurge on your products and thank you for a chance to win some:0)
I’ve been using body shop products for over 10 years! My husband purchased me a fabulous gift basket and I was hooked! My favorite body shop product right now, is the Coconut body butter and shower gel, It smells incredible and makes my skin super soft. Thanks so much for the great giveaway!
We don’t have one in our town but I have been given their products as gifts. I have used their body wash and soap. Everyone who knows me knows how much I love luxurious, scented bath products. I remember smelling it before I unwrapped it and it’s one of the reasons I love their products today…the gorgeous scents. Sweet Lemon is my current favor. Shared with friends on FB
I cant wait to enter a body shop to find the cream for the smell that attracted me into the store in the first place! Ijust adore all the soaps too!
I dont own any of these products as of yet but if I will I will let you know
One memory is in college when we drove to the mall and stopped at the body shop and smelled their samples. They smelled so good. SOme of my favorite products are their coconut shimmer body butter and their satsuma body polish. I invited some friends
Love the body shop what would I do without it…go nuts!
Anytime I go in a Body Shop my husband just finds somewhere to sit down, he knows I’ll be in there a good long while! I get so many compliments on my Body Shop fragrance, and my Body Shop lip colors! Makes this “old” woman feel good!
I love the Body Shop Body Butters & Shower Gels, my favorite is Satsuma.. the fragrance of fresh oranges is wonderful. The body butter is amazing… it is very fragrant but subsides into this wonderful fresh energizing scent.
I remember the first time I ever saw a Body Shop was when I was visiting family in Canada. The smell and the bright colors instantly drew me in. They used to have this giant table of perfume oils and I would pick up Vanilla, Sandalwood, and my very favorite, Dewberry! I miss Dewberry so much! The only ting they have that even comes close to that scent now is the Passion Fruit Body Butter. I also loved their Japanese Washing Grains and Pineapple Facial Wash! But what I miss the most is the Cream Foundation by Barbara Daly! It was the best foundation I’ve ever used hands down! So many favorites have disappeared, that now I rarely find anything there even comparable to those great Body Shop products by Anita Roddick.
I live in a small town with no Body Shop close by, but my friends buys your stuff online. I like her stash of whipped creams she has from The Body Shop. I would love to get body butter to try after reading so many good reviews.
I was given a body lotion and I absolutely love it. It will be awhile before I can buy any as I just moved into a place after being homeless for 3 years. as soon as life straightens out I will definitely be buying more
I love all their products and have been buying them since they opened their door.
It has been years since I shopped a Body Shop store. I cannot remember what I ever bought. Liked and shared the FB post.
Thank you!
when i’m in the body shop i feel like a kid in a candy store…so much to choose from. love it all!
Body lotions are my favorites!!
I love their banana shampoo and conditioner as well as the coconut body butter.
I love their body butters especially the Shea butter…rich, creamy and moisturizing.
The whipped body butters are AMAZING! they feel great going on, absorb uqickly with no oily residue, feel lightweight, but most importantly the fragrance lingers throughout the day!
I love the philosophy of the The Body Shop most of all. And the decor and how it doesn’t feel like a STORE. It feels like a homey marketplace where you can play. And when it comes to shopping, that’s how it should be!!
My first Body Shop purchase was a set of four body butters. I think they were 1 oz each. I can’t remember what all of them were, but I do remember at least one was the Mango. Heaven in a jar!
I like their Body Butter…makes your skin feel so soft. Had very dry hands this winter and just a bit of the Body Butter softened them right up. Even my husband used it on his hands.
I don’t have a Body Shop near me
But I was able to get the Coconut body butter at Ulta. I love it & use it every day. I shared with my FB friends!
i love the peppermint foot cream! mmmmmmmmm! shared and liked
I sadly haven’t gotten to try anything from them yet but I keep looking at the lip care because my lips are always in need of something. I don’t care what I do they still feel chapped.
I loved Body Shop products when I lived in England.
I love how calming The Body Shop always is in the middle of the frenzy that is the mall. The staff are always very helpful and seem to have a lot of knowledge to impart. Cant WAIT to go see the “new” Body Shop and sample their new make-up line.
Love their tea tree collection their rainforest radiance shampoo and conditioner. Love the shower gels the body butters and lotions and live that they are natural and free from cruelty to animals. I’ve always loved them since I was a teenager!
I love the smell of the store. I remember my husband coming home a few days before valentines day smelling like a fruit salad with a side of flower garden and I knew he had been in there trying different scents and lotions. Had no problem figuring out where my gift came from. I love the coconut lotion he bought me.
Body Butters
I love the Sumatra Orange body butters. They smell so good and make my skin really soft.
I use the Body Shop Body Butters. I just love the scents and the consistency of them. They feel so smooth and luxurious going on. I hope they never ever discontinue them. They’re my favorite product.
Alright, here’s my story. i was a huge tomboy. i hated make-up and all the girly stuff. okay, let’s leave out sailor moon and barbies!! But i was never into make-up as a child. As i got older i made some friends who got me into make-up, i mean we were 9-12 years old so we were still so young! The only thing we started out with was mascara. simple right? Now here is where i branched off, i started to get into Japanese rock. Those men look like woman with amazing singing, guitar, drums, bass guitar skills! They had major make-up and clothes sometimes! it was something i enjoyed in my 6th-7th grade year. i went all out with make-up. I always put thick eyeliner on, a whole bunch of foundation and eye contacts. i looked like a punk gothic person. people were afraid of me unless they knew who i was already. But hey guess what? i eventually got out of that stage through the middle of 7th grade. So i was introduced to Michelle Phan when she still had only a few videos up. Even still i loved how she did her unique thing! I eventually really wanted to learn more of make-up and what’s good for your face, how to take care of your face and what harmonizes with what and all the different colors and textures of the make-up. I love body shop, i honestly haven’t tried so many but i must say the lotion is amazing the the eyeshadows! lovelyyyy!!!!!!
Honestly I do not buy much Body Shop, as it is not real close to me- but in past I have purchased body creams/butters love them.
I Havent tried your product but i have heard awesome things about it.. Thank you for the Chance
I no longer live near a Body Shop and I can truly say I miss it. I just loved to explore and find my one new fave product which was hard to do because I usually found 20 fave products. I love love their body butters
Me and my sister shopping at the mall for body butters, love them!
I miss the days of the old Body Shop when you would walk in the store and see a table in the middle of the store with big glass flasks; each one filled with different perfume oils. You could have a sales associate custom make a fragrance for you, mixing the difference scents. I adored the scent of Sandalwood and would have them scent the unscented body cream for me. Another favorite oil was Fuzzy Peach. Those perfume oils were awesome but then, over time, The Body Shop changed the formulas and they didn’t quite smell the same. But I still continued to buy them. I think the last perfume oil I bought was Strawberry at Christmas – 2009? 2010? I can’t remember. But it wasn’t long after that they discontinued all the oils. I hope they bring a few of the classic scents back in the future – it’s what made me fall in love with the Body Shop!
There used to be a body shop in my mall next to bbw but sadly it closed. I remember they always had a table of body butter outside to sample.
The Body Shop Tea Tree line is my fav. It keeps my skin feeling fresh and clean. I even carry the Tea Tree blemish stick in my purse for emergencies.
I’ve been wearing the Body Shop perfume in white musk ever since I was a sophomore in high school. Now that I’m older, I tend to layer it with other fragrances, but I’m always in to stock up every 6 months or so. I always enjoy browsing and finding new things to give to family for just because presents – those are the best kind after all.
I have always loved your products. Thanks!
My 1st Body Shop experience was when I was about 15 on a family vacation to Washington DC. We’d go and walk/shop all of the stores in Georgetown-many are everywhere now, but back then (I’m 37 now),these stores were new and unique to me. The Body Shop was a dream come true for a teen who would be the 1st of her friends to have such ‘fancy’ beauty products. My favorite was their freeshia scent products. i loved the solid perfume, and it became my signature scent all through high school and beyond. I also loved the testers, it was new to me since my makeup shopping outside a drugstore was zero. I’m sad to say i haven’t shopped there in years as I’ve had a tight budget and hectic life. This giveaway would be awesome to win as my makeup selection is in a very sad state! Great review, thank you.
We love the Body Shop body butters!
Using The Body Shop’s Deep Sleep! Posted on FB on 7/14, too!
I love the Body Shop and their stores. I wish there was a store near me, but that is the price you pay for being a country girl! lol Thanks as always for the chance to win. Also sharing!
I grew up in a very small town so driving to the big city where there was an actual mall and walking into the Body Shop was like heaven….I couldn’t spend much and it was tough to decide but I always came home with soap because it would last and last…..
I’ve been shopping there for years, what’s not to love? Last your I was really impressed when a local mall did a mother’s day special. The Body Shop had a special both set up where you could get a mini pedi plus they gave away goody bags filled with samples. This let me try the new baby line plus a few sample fragrances. My favorite was the full size lip gloss. I hope to set up a sample spa night for my girlfriends that they offer .
I absolutely love their pomegranate line!
Our mall used to have TBS back in the 80′s. I was just a young girl back then, but loved going inside and smelling everything. I don’t recall a single product being a favorite. But I loved the lotions. My cousins, who were teens first introduced me to TBS. And we hung out at the mall every weekend, and ended up in the shop at one point or another. I always came home smelling wonderful. I was 7 years old, sick, and just had my tonsils removed. It was my birthday, and my cousin gave me a gift bag full of products. I remember trying them out, but saving them for school (birthday is in the summer) so that the other girls would be jealous of how awesome I smelled. lol
I love the Body Shop Lily Cole makeup collection.
I’ve never heard of The Body Shop before! I’ll definitely have to check it out! I’m not usually one to splurge on makeup, but I’m looking for some great products to use for my wedding in August. Can’t wait to find out where the closest Body Shop is!
I have never had to chance to shop at a body shop! I adore all the products, and hope to make it to a store someday! I would LOVE to try them! They products and company are amazing!
My best memory is from the other week actually, I took my daughter to the store after I read a comment on here and She Mentioned all the things you could do like try the make-up your self or have someone in store help you (my daughter loved that being made over shes seven almost 8 as she says lol an that was her favorite part!) I jus read another comment and she was right I dont think there are many if any other stores that have all you have to offer including the mixing scents! , I’ve only been able to do that at one other store and it was a small new age type store but it was lotion. This was sooooooo much better at your store I Really hope you guys bring that back!! My daughter and I would have loved that soooooooo much!!! Thank you though, so much I think my daughter and I are going to turn this into a once a month kind of thing where we play, have fun and then purchase our favorite things we find each time. Thank you soooooo much for having your store the way you do. If and when I own my own Shoe store thats exactly how I would run it, make it feel welcoming and fun like Visiting you grandmoms house!!! We loved it and we recommend it sooo click and def sign-up to win and def visit the store either way!!!!And again thank you for creating something soo fun for me and my daughter to enjoy time and time again ( i realy hope you bring back the oils and anything else you may have removed and I also have some really good new ideas for other things you could offer that I know people with or with-out kids would loveeeeee Email me if your interesed

I love the body shop products!! unfortunately the closest store is an hour and a half away. I used to have the eyeshadow quad … like the ones in the giveaway picture…They were in their own plastic cube.. there was a light pink highlight colour, a gold, a kind of taupe and a dark brown. I was the best I have ever had and i cannot find another one like it. Anyways the reason i dont have it anymore is because i forgot it in a hotel room about a year ago and when i realized it was gone, the room was already cleaned and the housekeeper said “she didnt see it”… i would imagine she kept it for her own
If i were to win this i would be sooo HAPPY to get that eyeshadow once again! Thanks for the opportunity!
Ive never tried body shop products but id deffinetly LOVE to try it!
I never tried these products before, but they seem so good!
Their Body Butters have become a staple in my gift giving! Such a great company that always seems to be sponsoring a charity or foundation. Would love to win!
I love love the butter body lotion because it make my body all soft afterward.
I like the Watermelon Born Lippy. Thanks for the giveaway!!
I have never had the opportunity to try their products before. There isn’t a shop near me, but all of the products sound amazing! I think I would love all of the wonderful smells. I will have to look them up online and check out everything they have to offer…there were some products I saw on other comments that I would definitely be interested in trying! Plus, I love supporting companies with cruelty-free products…that is very important!! Thank you so much for the opportunity to win this amazing prize!
I used to work in the mall right next door to The Body Shop, I can’t tell you how many of my breaks were spent in there exploring the skincare, body goodies, and especially the oils. Though we always liked making our own blends, Juba Oil was always my ultimate favorite. I still have a bottle!
Never tried their products but would love to!
I remember that the first products I ever got from the body shop was a butter. it was so luxurious! I felt like a queen every time I put it on.
Ohhhh! I fell in love with the Body Shop the first time I bought their Body Butters! When I think of TBS, I immediately equate them with those Butters! I have such great memories of trying each one in the store – I think I ended up buying 4 different scents!
My favorite memory is the aromas upon walking into The Body Shop the first time. It brought back happy memories….such as visiting HI with relatives and remembering the wonderful exotic beautiful scents in the HI islands. It also reminded me of my deceased Mom’s cooking of special cookies. Special moments of my life that are forever within my heart were surrounding me in the spectacular aromas I was smelling. I love love love the body butters. I look like an alligator and with one application of a spectacular body butter I have a leg I am not scared to reveal to the public. My lips scream out for the fantastic lip products and I never am awake a moment of the day I do not have one of the lip products on. Thank you for helping to make this ole girl feel young again! See you on FB! ~~~Kendra Erickson Pruitt~~~
Going crazy buying gifts when they have their awesome sales!
I have never tried anything from the body shop i would love to
shared on my facebook!!
My favorite product from The Body Shop is the Vitamin C Skin Boost. My skin looks the best when using this serum.
The body butters are the best ever!
I <3 the body butters! I first walked past TBS and smelled the products from outside, I had to turn around and go back! My experience in the store was incredible. I was able to touch and feel a lot of products. The staff was very informative. I know I spent at least 30 minutes just smelling and browsing and feeling.
Thanks for a great experience and for all the great products!
I first me body Shop in Germany. I became addicted to the Banana flavored lip balm which unfortunately isn’t made anymore. My new love is the hemp infused hand cream. I have really dry hands and that is the best thing in the world to use!
My favorite memory at body shop is every time I go in! They are always friendly even though I feel the need to smell EVERYTHING before I buy LOL
I love layering the body butter, sprays and fragrance oils.
Interesting how so many people are in love with things they discontinued… I fell in love with TBS in London in 1983; I was on a winter holiday from Israel and “discovered” them; they had a Frankincense perfume oil that was THE most amazing, authentic, rich powerful scent EVER- and NO ONE has Ever made anything even remotely like it, and naturally they discontinued it. I even called and wrote to their corporate headquarters begging for any old stock they might have; no luck.
Oh, for the secret to that perfume oil…
(Liked & Shared on Facebook, too!)
I totally love the Body Shop! Whenever I pass by, I always pause and smell because it smells AMAZING! I totally love their vanilla spice body scrub + body butter
Thanks for the amazing giveaway!
I loved using the tea tree oil.
I remember the Body Shop from my 10th grade civics class about its founder Anita Roddick. I love all of their body butters especially the almond body butter.
I love the Body Butters and Vitamin C face cream!
I first saw the Body Shop in Victoria, B.C. and I fell in love with all the fruit scents; peach oil, satsuma oil and mango oil and the body butters! I had more compliments from perfect strangers and several men stopped me to ask about the perfume I was wearing so they could buy it for their girlfriend. I also loved the glycerin soaps. They’re yummy!
I’m a huge fan of the hemp hand creams, especially during the winter.

I love the body butters- such a great variety of scents!
I had a shimmer cranberry scented body lotion from the Body Shop a few years ago. It was perfect for Christmas. It smelled sooo good and the shimmer was a white iridescent. So pretty!
TBS tea tree oil saved my face on more than one occasion!
I loved being able to make my own perfume at the Body Shop. I’ve also always had a weakness for their body butters.
I love the sensitive skin line!
I love Body Shop butters and the fact you can get on-the-go necessities at so many airport boutiques!
THE PERFUME OILS!!!! How I loved them! Especially the very first, original Vanilla perfume oil. It smelled SOOOO good! I loved going to the Body Shop with my friends and we’d all be testing the different oils and trying to create our own custom blend. My one friend, who is a makeup artist also got me hooked on the Sandalwood perfume – she was doing my makeup one day and I thought the finishing powder she was using was scented because every time she brought the brush to my face, I got this subtle scent of of something that smelled so good. I found out she was wearing Sandalwood body lotion – a custom blend she had made at the Body Shop. That same day, I raced to the store so I could get some of it for myself!
I haven’t been in The Body Shop in years. I used to like their shea butter cream. I remember it always smelled so good in there.

I love the sprays for your face – especially the Vitamin E spray – its so refreshing living in the hot south – Always have one w/me and a great gift for friends.
Love the Body Shop, especially mixing perfumes. So much fun. Also love the tea tree oil.
I remember my first meeting Body Shop products. It was at a home party, and I was in love.
The smells were delightful and the company is a winner, in terms of products and ethics. THANKS!
As a previous Body Shop at Home rep. I could go on and on about the awesome memories of being apart of such an authentic company. But for time sake I will say that the Satsuma line was my fave!!! But the eyeshadow shimmers are an absolute staple in my everday makeup look! I’m super excited to try this new line out!
My first experience was not that long ago, my friend gave me a bit of her whipped creams to try on my super dry hands. I love the lingering smell.
Crazy but I’ve never tried any of their products. I always hear great things about them and i’m definitely excited to try some!
I love getting the coupons in the mail and splurging on something I normally wouldn’t buy
Ah,TBS…I discovered it in the mid 90′s-everything I owned was from TBs cosmetic wise. I love the fair trade items and their commitment to social issues. My favorite product 10 years in the running is the blonde/auburn pencil for eyebrows; I find it matches almost perfectly.
Just passing by the store smells sooo good and I love all the body butters!!!
I don’t have any body shop memories ): besides getting a body butteras a gift but I would love to try their products!
2 words: body butter! LOVE THEM!
being peach is my favorite lotion dont have store nearby have to always order online
I like their body washes
There has never been a Body Shop near where I live
Fortunately, I was gifted a set of The Body Shop Moroccan Rose body milk, body cream & body spray and I fell in love with the delightful, unique scent!
I absolutely am head over heels for The Body Shop products. My favorite product The Body Shop has come out with is actually the Honey Shampoo & Conditioner. Every time I enter the mall, I always stop into The Body Shop & am love the scents of what they have to offer. I hope I am able to win the makeup. Thank you.
Well, I am almost ashamed to say, I have never been to (although I would definetley go!) to a BodyShop. We don’t have them where I live.
I would LOVE to try their line though, and from that wonderful description you just gave- I really want the experience of going to one!
Thanks for the giveaway.
I also have liked and shared!

Unfortunately I don’t have any memories because there is no BodyShop where I live
BUT I have always wanted to try their products since I see the on YouTube videos!!!
My favorite memories are that I use to order all the endangered species items from their catalog. Also it always felt good to order from such a good company that always gave back. I think they might have been the first ones!
My memories of body shop are based in high school also. I remember walking around the mall and following my nose to their store. It would smell so good and have really good products.
My fav. product is the Moroccon rose body milk. It smells heavenly!
I loved getting The Body Shop catalogs in the mail years ago!
I remember poring over the catalog in the mail.
I always bought teacher gifts there….now my children give gifts from The Body Shop too
Body Shop Has the best products But i have never tried the make-up would Love to win this and give it all a try Thanks for the chance to win!!
I was so excited to get a variety of scented glycerin soaps from The Body Shop one Christmas!
My most memorable products are the lipsticks, i was in high school and bought this expensive (for me) lipstick and it was a deep pink color and everytime I wore it people would comment on how white my teeth looked and blue my eyes were. I loved that lipstick until I realized it was way too dark for my skin tone
.
I love The Body Shop Body Butters. The scent is always so inviting when you walk past the store, that I always need to stop in and try out the new products. Funny enough but the coconut scent always brings back summer memories of being on the beach!
This makeup line looks amwazing and I would love to try it1
I used to pore over their catalogs.
We don’t have a Body Shop where I live, but from what I’ve heard it seems pretty good
The “Energy” cream lotion so rich and smells fantastic and super moisturizing love it!!
My daughter and I used to love shopping at The Body Shop at our local Mall, they had such delightful creams, fragrances, we shopped there often. We miss it!!
