Anything good at the Body Shop

My friend is holding a Body Shop Party this weekend which I've said that I'll go to.

I'm pretty much of the mindset that it's MLM tat, but I'll but something to be polite (my friend is just the venue not the seller) is there anything at all that's good?!

The camomile cleanser is great

Sarahcoggles · 03/03/2023 18:00

I've used white musk perfume for about 40 years, smells lovely, I've lost count of the number of people who tell me that.

Errmmmmmmmmmmm · 03/03/2023 18:01

White Musk, gosh that takes me back! i like using the Hemp Lip Care, really lovely on the lips, especially when the weather is cold.

Love their hemp hand cream and Camomile cleanser is brilliant

Starseeed · 03/03/2023 18:05

The nail/cuticle oil is good - comes in a stick with a little brush. I like the morninga shower gel/bubble bath too.

Their vitamin E range is decent. Although I stopped buying it years ago because they suddenly slapped a big price hike on it.

AliceMcK · 03/03/2023 18:12

I like the Shea products because I like the smell

DH likes the mens face range

ive used the hemp cream on DDs eczema, she dosnt like the feel but it dose help clear it up.

My hairdresser recommended the banana shampoo for my dd, she uses it on her DDs. I’ve used it in the past and it’s nice but dd prefers the L’Oréal one we use.

One of my DDs won a BS gift voucher once and got herself some lip balms she really liked and I’ve bought gift sets for teen nieces before which are nice.

It’s not my go to products but I’ve never bought anything I really disliked.

All the shower gels and the coconut butter.

RudolfsLeftToe · 03/03/2023 18:16

They do a few liquid peel masks which I really like, my favourite is the drops of youth one and the SPF spray is handy for a top up when I’m out and about.

Love the body butters and another vote for the camomile cleanser

RaininSummer · 03/03/2023 18:23

I love their body butters but won't buy unless on a very good discount.

TokyoSushi · 03/03/2023 18:25

Oh good, all is not lost then!

Body butters are brilliant. Got given some for Christmas. Also the ginger shampoo is nice for sensitive scalps. Love White Musk scent, takes me well back. I wish they still did the Elderflower Eye Gel.

mrsbyers · 03/03/2023 18:27

I love the mandarin body spray

Starlighttwinkle · 03/03/2023 18:27

I don’t like MLMs either but as they have a shop I don’t feel quite so bad about the body shop. I love their camomile cleansing butter. It melts your make up off!

hedwigismyowl · 03/03/2023 18:30

Love the almond soap

WellTidy · 03/03/2023 18:32

I like the scent of their British Rose shower gel, and I also use it as a bath foam. I am a sucker for anything rose scented though.

I also like their mini argan oil hand creams. I find them handy for the car, handbags etc.

Almahart · 03/03/2023 18:36

Grapefruit shower gel, hemp handcream

crochetcrazy1978 · 03/03/2023 18:37

Another vote for the camomile cleansing bars. I also like the drops of youth facial oil and hemp hand cream

cravingtoblerone · 03/03/2023 18:41

Also their peppermint foot spray is wonderful for aching feet.

Snoopystick · 03/03/2023 18:44

The ginger shampoo if you have an itchy scalp and it’s smells gorgeous

HiImTheProblemItsMe · 03/03/2023 18:45

Vitamin E eye cream and any of the body butters or hand creams.

The camomile cleanser is great

Just came on to say the same

changer7654 · 03/03/2023 18:47

I love the ginger shampoo and conditioner. They work wonders on dandruff / itchy scalp.

Sarahcoggles · 03/03/2023 18:49

I like all the fruit soaps too
