The Body Shop Lip & Cheek Tint - Rose pink

Advantages: Lightweight, fairly long lasting, suits most skin tones
Disadvantages: Not the colour it seems, not suitable for dry lips

...Recently bought this, having purchased a body shop discount card, so I wanted to take full advantage of 10% discount. I was looking for a bright red lip tint to wear to a party and found this lip and cheek tint in The Body Shop. I don't normally buy make-up from The Body Shop, but I thought with my discount, why not! I was pleasantly surprised with the results! Firstly, the packaging is admittedly not very exciting - a transparent tube with a screw top. Packaging really does not bother me though and I'd rather not pay any extra for something which essentially does nothing! What did concern me though, was that the colour of the tint looked red in the tube, which is why i bought it in the first place. When you actually go to apply the tint though, it's a lot more of a rich pink colour. This was my own fault though, as the sign in...

Body Shop Brow & Liner Kit for perfect eyebrows.

Advantages: Two powder shades tailored to your hair colour for a natural look
Disadvantages: A little pricey but it does last for ages.

...The Body Shop Brow and Liner Kit is a must have for perfect eyebrows. Having used eyebrow pencils for years and being relatively happy with the results I never really considered there might be a better alternative. Recently while browsing in the Body Shop looking for a powder eye liner a silver compact caught my eye and being a beauty gadget addict, I went in for a closer look. The compact is silver and black and contains two shades of powder tailored to your hair colour and a handy little retractable brush. I chose the compact for Blonde/ Auburn and decided to give it a try instead of persisting with my ever shrinkng stub of an eyebrow pencil. (The other shades are tailored to Auburn/ Brunette and Brunette/ Black- it's easy to pick the one that suits you best) In order to give the product the best possible review I shaped and plucked...

BodyShop Cocoa Butter Lip Care- Good though a little greasy.

Advantages: Smells nice, long lasting, softens and moisturises
Disadvantages: Can feel a little greasy, can make your fingers smell of chocolate for a long time!

...I got a Body Shop voucher for christmas so decided I'd buy this with it, it costs £4 which is pricy for a lipbalm, but I thought it was worth it - I wish I could afford to buy it regularly! This is a standardly packaged lip balm stick. The stick itself is hard the first few times you use it but once it softens a bit it doesn't soften so much that it snaps (as I find some cheaper lipbalms do). The product contains cocoa butter which makes it smell like chocolate. This can be a good or a bad thing depending on your tastes! I don't mind the smell on my lips, but if any gets on my hands at all (say I tidy up the edges with my fingers) then the smell can last a while. I find the product really did soften and moisturise my lips (as it claims to on the tube). It lasts a while and I didn't need to apply it as often as I do with some...

all in one make up base, body shop

Advantages: see text
Disadvantages: see text

...looking through the reviews, it seems that I am the only one who's about to write a bad review and make the product's rating decrease slightly. Maybe I just have odd skin lol. My skin is considered combination, I do get spots and I do get dry skin if I dont look after it properly. My current make up - rimmel all day natural make up was on its last legs so I decided to try a different route - the body shop all in one make up base. Now the delivery arrived very promptly which is always a plus with body shop, theyre very good in that respect, the product on the other hand is a different story. The product cost me £11.70 and in my mind is the most insane amount to spend on foundation! But I had just been paid and thought I would treat myself to a few items to see if it could make a difference to m skin. At first...

Stuck for wedding make-up - try the Body Shop

Advantages: A fantastic service, well worth the money
Disadvantages: can't think of any

...Help, I am getting married and not confident of doing my own make-up on the big day. Well, that was my exact worry. What would be worse than turning to my husband to be at the moment I was to say "I Do", knowing I've made such a mess of the make-up and this will be seen on the wedding photo's & video, forever and ever. My solution, (after a tip from my hairdresser) was to try the Body Shop wedding make-up service. I ventured in - feeling quite nervous at the thought of some-one applying make-up to me- what if they applied the most awful colours? Well, the staff could not have been more friendly, it seemed there were quite used to slightly panicky brides to be (I had left my enquiry rather late - just 2 weeks before the wedding - what if they couldn't fit me in?) The staff explained the process and cost in a friendly but...

My lips taste lovely - give us a kiss!

Advantages: Excellent product, easily absorbed, tastes good, works well
Disadvantages: A bit expensive at full price

...I read a review some time ago here on Ciao - of course - about The Body Shop Lip Butter. It was a very positive review and, since I use lip balm on a regular basis I thought that I ought to investigate. When I was next in town I went into our local branch of The Body Shop and found the lip butters on offer - normally £5 per pot they were offered at £8 for two. Well I am always up for a special offer so I chose the Pink Grapefruit and the Mango Lip Butters and paid my £8. I have just checked on the Body Shop website and the current price has reduced slightly to £4.85 per pot. We live on the Great Orme at Llandudno so we almost always have at least a sea breeze and quite often we regularly get gales! Of course this means that my lips are often dry and I really can't stand it - it irritates the life out of me. As you know if...

Body Shop Lip Care - choose with care

Advantages: can be smooth and hydrating
Disadvantages: can be grainy and smell vile

...Body Shop Lip Care balms come on lots of different flavours or smells rather. Now you had better watch out which one you get because there is a drastic difference between one and then next. Some of the Body Shop lip balms are so soft and last quite a long time, keeping ur lips feeling good but others are quite the contrarty. Some are so horrid that you want to wipe them off yourself. If you want to go the safe way you should go with: Born Lippy unbriddled pasionberry i believe it is called. The smell does not suit everyone unfortunately. I have a friend who finds the smell revolting while i quite like it. Anyway this lip balm is great. If you want some gloss just put on a little extra and u'll have ur gloss without a change in color while if you don't want gloss just make sure you rub it in and don't have large amounts of extra...

Another lip balm - are there any I haven't tried?

Advantages: It works well, it protects lips from the sun
Disadvantages: Not quite as nice as the lip butters IMHO

...A little while ago I decided that it was about time I started sorting out my cupboards and drawers ? not before time I might add. I always end up finding something that I had forgotten I had and this time was no exception. The little gem in question was a tube of Body Shop Vitamin E Lip Care SPF 15. Now as you may already know I am one of those people who just cannot stand my lips being dry and I suffer from this problem all year round. In the summer the wind and sun dries them out and in the winter the cold weather does the job. To make matters worse I find myself constantly licking my lips and then wiping them dry. Consequently I have all sorts of different lip balms in drawers around the house and more in my handbags. Some of them are in little pots, some of them are in little plastic tubes and some of them are the lipstick...
