My BoDy ShOp CoLLeCtiOn + 1st ReViEw



i used to love The Body Shop products while i was in my early teens but then i just sort of grew out of that phase...months ago i went in to purchase a Coconut Body Butter and they asked me if i wanted a Body Shop Card...so i said yes...I've been taking advantage of the 10% off every purchase and collecting points ever since... my B.S. collection grew over night...some things i love...and some things not so much...
my 1st review...others might follow....





this is the only brush i carry around everyday in my make up bag. this is a very very soft brush. softer than Sigma and Mac but doesn't pick up as much product. i use it to re-apply my face powder during lunch and if i have to re-apply a bit of blusher i use this again and then clean the blush off by swirling it on a tissue..
Definitely worth the 13.50 euros.



i purchased the little travel size 50 ml one to keep in my desk at work and use as a hand cream.
but the scent was so strong i felt like it gave me a little headache every time i used it. some girls at work loved the smell and asked me what i was using..other girls had the same reaction as me...
i will me trying it out as a body butter now that i brought it home...







i call this my baby Clarisonic...I've never used a Clarisonic before but in theory it should work in the same way...you just have to do all the work and swirl it around your face for a minute or two...it's definitely the Old School Clarisonic...this B.S. one is really soft but after i washed it in the dishwasher twice its even better...after i use my milk cleanser to remove my make-up i use this with my gel cleanser and it takes off any residue from the make up or the cleanser...it exfoliates lightly...and makes my skin feel super clean...
for only 4 euros this is definitely one of my favorite Body Shop products i use religiously every night! 





this is one of my favourite hair products ever...and I'm really picky with hair products...
my hair is long, thick, wavy...and very out of control and frizzy on very humid days.. so mostly every day :)
this products gets rid of the frizz..makes my hair look smooth and shiny..not at all greasy..
best part...it makes my hair smell all coconuty..i get so many compliments on that!





ok so i have very oily skin..combined with hot weather and humidity it's trouble!! i need to powder up every few hours or else i just look like a mess...but before i re-apply powder i like to absorb some of the oilyness using these blotting tissues..they work better than toilet paper (haha!) but i feel sometimes that they are too thin...i need 2 tissues each time ... i borrowed a MAC blotting tissue from my friend once and it was much thicker and almost three times the size of these B.S. ones so of course i only needed one...but I'm not sure if the MAC ones are ridiculously priced so if they are I'm sticking to these babies.....
