Marks & Spencer Perfect Ingredients Shea Nut Body Butter

Shea Body Butter? No Ta!

Advantages: Very ethnical product, pretty nice smell!
Disadvantages: Over price and over hyped.

, the only two words on the ingredients list that made any sense to me were 'Caramel' and 'Butyrospermim' but after googling a handful of the other ingredients I will happily pop on my dunces hat as almost all the ingredients are completely natural. Yay! Packaging The packaging for this product is rather basic. It's a little hand sized cream coloured tub with a screw on lid. There's a circle sticker on the top of the lid which is a rather pretty picture of Shea Nuts and 'Shea Body Butter' written in typical Body Shop font with 'With Comminuity Trade shea butter to mositurise. VERY DRY SKIN' written neatly underneath that. And on the bottom of the tub is a similar circle sticker with the ingredients typed neatly in the middle, then symbols stating you can keep it for 12 months after the first use and you can recycle after use ...

Review of The Body Shop Shea Body Butter

Shea Butter

Advantages: Moisturises well, fair trade product
Disadvantages: Pricey, no real scent

The Body Shop is a brand which I like because it is against animal testing. Furthermore it prides itself on 'community trade' programs, which is better know as fair trade. Overall they come across as a rather ethical company who are respectful of the planet in general, even aiming to source organic products in it's newer ranges. They also try to obtain all their ingredients using methods which are not harmful to the enviroment. I have just finished using this body butter after receiving it free with an issue of Marie Clare. Usually the Body Shop body butters retail at around £12 so I have never picked this one out because I think if I am going to pay that much, I want one that smells of Mango or something! However I do have very dry skin on my body which is what this body butter is marketed to tackle. I received 50 grams of this ...

Review of The Body Shop Shea Body Butter

Nuts about body butter!

Advantages: Smells good enough to eat!
Disadvantages: Unfortunately NOT EDIBLE!

Body shop ? Nut body butter 2 for £17 300ml If some of you have read my previous review about the Avon range Planet Spa, you may realise I am a bit partial to Shea butter products. I think it?s a combination of the smell and the fact that it seems almost edible, despite the fact that it?s clearly not! I was given a selection pack of Body Butter products from the Body Shop for Christmas. I had previously gone into our local BS and tested some of their range, and couldn?t decided which one I liked best, so I thought a ?selection pack?, similar to what you get with chocolate bars (and that?s another story), would be the best option. The pack contained Shea, Nut and Mango Body Butters, each in a little sample pot of 50mls, with an attractive red presentation box. It didn?t take me long to determine which one was my favourite. It ...
