“Vitamin C Moisturiser - Such a good addition to my skin care products!”

Taja.Mamoyo ..

I bought Body shop's Vitamin C Glow boosting Moisturiser and I'm very happy with the purchase. I use it on my face whenever I feel like my skin is looking a bit dull or tired. The moisturiser gives it a nice glow, with a fresh, dewy look. In the winter months I have noted that I need to also use a bit of natural oil before applying the Vitamin C Moisturiser, as I feel that my skin needs just that little bit more moisture than the product provides. All in all I think it's a worth while purchase and definitely one I plan on always having in my skin care cupboard.

“Horrible customer service”

I can't speak to their products as I placed an order and due to a technical issue with their site, was not delivered to the correct address. Customer service was unapologetic and offered no resolution as is their "policy". I was treated like a liar and a criminal. I felt if they were not going to replace the $100 order at no cost, the least they could have done was offer a discount off another order. I will NEVER shop Body Shop.

For me is one of those brands that I consider a must. They have the best beauty and body products. Recently I discovered the British Rose moisturizer and I'm in love! Also, I bought the exfoliating scrum "Pina Colada" and it feels like being in the Caribean. Every time I visit the store, the sales assistants always treat me so well. It's such a nice experience buying at The Body Shop. Top quality products and top quality assistance.

Been shopping there for years. Love the products. Could be organic but if not then it still is reasonably made and environmentally friendly.

Some products can be on the high end for pricing; however they have sales regularly. If you wait for sales 40-70% off sometimes with free shipping you can get some fantastic deals.
I have never waited more than a week for items to be delivered, including boxing day sale which was their busy time. Never been disappointed in quality of products I received.
Favorite is the body butters, love the soft, subtle scent of coconut body butter and the Strawberry Body Butter. Fragrance lasts all day but not overbearing and skin is noticeably softer to touch. Husband loves the hemp lotion as he works outside all winter and it really heals and protects his skin from winter chapping and cracks.

My husband purchased The Body Shop's Vitamin E skin care kit for me for Christmas. I haven't stopped using their products since. The toner and the night cream are my new holy grain moisterizer and cleanser. Since then I've ordered from their website many times. One time I ordered the full size Vineyard Peach body butter (along with the Green Candied Apple body butter). Everyone online raved about the amazing peach scent so of course I had to get it! When it arrived I smelled it and it smelled more like sage than peaches. I went to my closest Body Shop store and asked if I could exchange it. All they had to do was look up my order on the computer and said yep we'd be happy to make the exchange. I grabbed the Morninga Body Butter and was out of there in 5 minutes! Great customer service, so helpful and easy to work with. Not to mention the scents are to die for and their skincare products are fantastic!

Just bought some lovely body butter from here. Keep an eye out for the sales that they regularly have. You can quite often get free delivery on items too. Delivery is always quick and the items are well packed.
Plus you can rest in the knowledge that no animals were harmed making these products :)
