The Body Shop Coconut Body Butter

Advantages: smells lovely, moisturising really well

...but a long walk from the car park, I found the store to be shut when I got there. As you can imagine I wasn't best pleased as I had set my heart on pampering myself. However as I was wandering around town, the little old lightbulb in my head lit up and I remembered the Body Shop. This is another shop I haven't been in for ages, and even less so since discovering Lush. Being a typical shopper, I spent ages browsing the shelves, trying out most of ...
...for the Body Butter range, but I never end up buying any. On this occasion, the coconut body butter grabbed my attention and wouldn't let go until I had picked up at pot, albeit a small pot and purchased it at the till. *COST* My 50ml pot cost me £4, but there are also 200ml pots available for around the £10 mark. Personally I nearly had a heart attack at the price, but this was a self indulgence shop, and I hoped it would last me a while. *PACKAGING* ... Read review

...a friend, and complaining about the dry patch to her. Her friend produced a big tub of cream, let her rub a little bit into the dry patch, and just like magic, the dryness was gone. When the dry patch hadn’t re-appeared four days later, my sister dragged me into the Body Shop to buy some of this miracle cream. The cream was called ‘Body Butter’. We found this Body Butter on display next to a big sign which said ‘as featured in Glamour magazine’ ...
...get any higher than that? The most difficult task was choosing the best one. Body Butters come in loads of different fragrances, including brazil nut, grape, melon, blueberry and coconut. That particular day, my sister chose Blueberry. I, however, was not impressed. Despite huge recommendations from my sister, I decided that £10 was far too much to pay for a little tub of moisturiser without some hard evidence that it was actually any good (it was ...

...to mention I don't get the time to pamper myself very often! But when I received a free 50ml pot of The Body Shop's Coconut Body Butter with my copy of Marie Claire this month, I thought it'd be worth a try as it didn't cost me anything, and to be honest, it smelt gorgeous! The Body Shop are famous for their body and beauty products because they do not test their products on animals. They do many products from make-up, to shower gels to these body ...
...beauty industry, most recently winning The Sunday Times Style 2008 award for Best Body Moisturiser for the second year running, a pretty good accolade for them! So I knew this was going to be a good moisturiser and set about using it. Obviously in this weather, we're all wearing cropped trousers and shorts a lot, and my legs do dry out a bit from the sun, and the shaving creams and razors I use on my legs. I thought therefore that my legs would ... Read review

...needed pampering (bless him!). The gift pack included, Coconut Bath and shower cream, coconut body scrub, and lovely body polisher and of course, coconut body butter. At first I was a little wary of the body butter, as I often feel "gresy" once I have used body lotions and moisturisers, so I started off with a tiny amount of this product and did what it says on the tin! Here's the results! The packaging: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ The body butter comes in a ...
...high, by about 11cm wide. The label is on top of the lid and had the words "Body Shop Coconut Body Butter with Coconut oil to moisturise Normal to dry skin" It also has the same information in Frnch underneath. All this text is over a picture of half a coconut. On the bottom of the container, there is a peelable sticker, that says "Coconut Body Butter for normal to dry skin. Keep in a cool place" Then the same information in various other languages. ... Read review

...me will realise these are the things I adore, lots of lovely, bright beautiful smelly things. As part of a gift I received a 200ml pot of Coconut Body Butter by The Body Shop, now for those of you who don’t already know they just happen to be my very favourite retailers, well for a start lots of their products are part of their Community Trade range, a program in which the general public will buy goods that have been made by smaller poverty ...
...are also very strict on the fact that none of their products are tested on animals and that most of their stuff (with a few exceptions) are of excellent quality although a little pricey at times but it’s easy to see how they gained the honour of being the Consumer Association’s 2nd most trusted brand in the whole of the UK back in 1999. I think I have babbled on enough, now I hear you all shout what about the product then Heather??? ... Read review
