Recommendation Series - The Body Shop Haul and Review
Most of the Body Shop products are hyped and over-rated. But I strongly support cruelty free products that are natural. Here is a rundown on some of my recent purchases from the Body Shop.
Vineyard Peach Body Butter
Hydration for dry skin with peach extract and vineyard fragrance
What I like?
- It is by far the best Body Butter
- Soothing fragrance that gets me so high
- Not sticky and gets absorbed quickly
- Worth every penny
What I don’t like?
- One might need more quantity
- Budget might be a constraint for few
Rating: 4.5/5
945 INR
Born Lippy Passionberry Lip Balm
What I like?
- Purple tint
- Subtle shine
- Passionberry fragrance
- Budget friendly
What I don’t like?
- Practically nothing
Rating: 5/5
Price: 235 INR
Seaweed Clarifying Night Treatment - Seaweed Pore Perfecter
Skin balancing serum with antioxidant algae complex - combination/oily skin
This lightweight treatment gel minimizes the appearance of pores - gives clearer looking skin
Verdict:
It is surely overrated and didn’t live up to my expectations. There is smooth-ness in skin but no dramatic results.
Directions for use - Apply a small amount to problem areas, day or night, after cleansing and before moisturizing.

I bought the seaweed pore protector too-a few months back. I have the same opinion; it might help a lil but not really. Which is quite sad considering the price!
ReplyDeleteSomehow the seaweed range is kinda duhhh. Did u checked my body shop haul?

I still haven't checked out the peach one yet. Waiting for their Holiday limited edition to arrive in India. Great haul. I don't know about the seaweed range but I tried the vitamin C range's serum and loved it. Gave my face the glow. I mixed that serum with a little bit of night cream and applied all over my face before going off to sleep. Loved that serum. But not pocket friendly :P.
ReplyDeleteI love the bodyshop body butters, they are so moisturising! Brilliant during winter! Thanks so much for visiting and commenting. I'm following you now. Would love to have you over on my blog to and keep in touch if you want.

have heard loads of good stuff abt the peach body butter ! :)
ReplyDeletegreat haul :)
I like Peach BB too. But I like Aloe and Vit E one more especially in summers. Trust me Vit E is worth a try.
ReplyDeleteNot a fan of lip balms either - hi5 ! :)
I might have gone for Seaweed Pore Perfecter but if you didn't find it worthy I think I am not trying either.
I don't know if you get this in India or not:

but trust me it IS so relaxing especially after a hard day.
I love anything from the body shop and these are great picks.

Aloe Vera based skin care products are far better choice than synthetic ones, because Aloe Vera simply rejuvenates the skin.
