THE BODY SHOP – STRAWBERRY BODY BUTTER REVIEW

THE BODY SHOP – STRAWBERRY BODY BUTTER:

Hello my fellow readers,

Have a nice week ahead everyone. Today I am going to review The Body Shop’s Strawberry Body Butter which is something I have been using for the fall. During fall and winter my skin gets dryer than the usual because of the chillness in the weather. So instead of body lotions I always prefer body butters.

We never had a TBS shop before in my city, but then Brookefield’s mall happened and they opened this TBS shop in that. I was excited about my first visit there, and luckily it  happened to be sale time. Why would I resist myself then, and I got some awesome body butters, lotions, shower gels and some of their other goodies to try.

Price:

745 INR/-

Quantity:

200 ml

This product claims to be the moisturizer for the normal skin. The body shop body butters do not support animal testing which is a good thing about it. This contains strawberry seed oil, shea butter and cocoa butter which nourishes the skin and keeps it supple.

Strawberry Seed Oil: Provides omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that help to repair the moisture barrier of the skin, thus helping to restore moisture, smoothness and suppleness.

Shea Butter:Has a high level of antioxidant vitamins a, e and f, which help to protect and nourish the skin.  Moisturizes and helps soften the skin. Provides a rural community of women with regular work and income. That is the community trade.

Cocoa Butter: It is an excellent moisturizer that melts at body temperature, leaving the skin feeling soft and silky smooth.

Shelf Life:

36 months from the date of manufactured

The 12M symbol at the back of this container indicates that this product must have been finished within the 12 months from the date you open it. Even though it has a shelf life of 36 months, the product has to be used up within the 12 months from the date of opening the container.

My skin before application is a bit dry as below.

I took a very small amount at the back of my palm .

Skin Looks more glowing, soft and supple after application. The difference is visible.

My Experience:

I have always loved strawberries; particularly this range gave me the heavenly smell of strawberries. As soon as it’s applied, you might feel sticky for some time till it gets absorbed in to the skin. The strawberry fragrance lasts for at least an hour and then the smell slowly fades. So after some time you still can smell the sweet smell of strawberries, and your skin feels buttery just after a very thin layer of application.

Advantages of The Body Shop-Strawberry Body Butter:

1. The sweet smell of strawberries and the texture are almost a feast for your eyes and nose buds.

2. It makes your skin soft and supple.

3. It has shea butter, cocoa butter and strawberry seed oil which nourishes and moisturizes the skin.

4. It does not support animal testing.

5. It helps in community trading, which is a good social cause.

6. The smell lingers for few hours from the time of application and then it slowly fades.

Dis- Advantages of The Body Shop-Strawberry Body Butter:

1. The price is on the upper side. ( I got it on 50% off sale)

2. It might feel sticky for the first few minutes of the application.

3. The packaging is not so hygienic, it comes in a tub.

The cream’s texture, pink color and the sweet smell altogether makes the butter look like a cup of yoghurt. As I said before it’s a very good product for fall and for all those women who have dry skin problems during the winter . JI strongly recommend to all lovely ladies who loves strawberries and that too, if you are lucky enough to grab it on sale :P :D – By Suchitra
