THE BODY SHOP : STRAWBERRY EXTRACT.







Today I’m bringing you a brand that I have loved for many years now, ever since I was introduced to it. I absolutely love The Body Shop. I raved about their Vitamin E Gentle Face Wash, Cocoa Butter Lotion and Body Mists, before and a few other products as well. It’s my favourite body brand. But this time around, it has become my favourite bath brand too.

So for someone like me who loves indulgence and happiness, a strawberry body puree and strawberry body polish from TBS are like the souvenirs of luxurious treat. To begin with let me tell you that they smell absolutely divine! It’s so tempting; I guess I am going to finish these up very soon. Well honestly I was not a big fan of strawberry fragrance earlier but hands down for these products. It’s fruity but not in a nauseating way.

I will start with my first product from TBS which is the Strawberry Body Puree. It’s a hydrating all-over mild moisturizer that is great for summers. It is water based and rich in anti-oxidants and also spreads easily onto the skin. I love the way my skin feels hydrated and supple after the usage of this product. It has the strawberry extract and oil, glycerine and Shea butter. After a tiring day and a calming shower, this is the lotion that I want to pamper myself with. I consider this as a therapy that lifts your mood. I think I can even use this product during the beginning stages of winter before I completely switch myself to body butters. Although there is a slightly disappointing thing about this lotion is that it lacks SPF which I consider a must in every lotion that is summer friendly.




Moving on to the second product is the Strawberry Body Polish which contains Zambian Honey, strawberry juice, crushed walnut shells and kiwi seeds. It’s a very gentle exfoliator. I generally don’t like harsh exfoliators except for my feet. Dead skin cells are removed in no time without causing redness and make the skin feel extremely smooth, soft and moisturized. The fresh fruity smell lingers on for a while which is very overwhelming.



So if you happen to drop by a Body Shop store, go take a look at these products, maybe get a feel of them yourself! Bring home the goodness.
