The Body Shop mini haul and reviews

Hello ladies!
Do you smell chocolate? Well, after this post you sure will. And not only chocolate, but strawberries too ;)
Read on...

I recently purchased a few BodyShop products which include:

• Chocomania shower gel
• Chocomania body lotion
• Strawberry body polish
• A few samples

I must say I am thrilled to have the opportunity to purchase, my all-time favorite bath & body brand, here in my home country. All this made possible by the lovely people at www.mybodyshop.bg 

Now on the products:

TheBodyShop BB cream:

• Formula - beyond excellent. Very rich, creamy and yet light formula. 
• Comes in one universal shade.
• Gives my skin absolute glow and healthy look. 
• Feels very light on the face, non sticky at all

I highly recommend this BB cream. I found my perfect match when it comes to BBs and I am thrilled to buy the full size. 

Coconut hair oil:

• First time user of hair oils. I don't like oily beauty products, as I have normal hair/skin, so it feels awfully greasy in the end. 
• No particular result from this one in the end. 

Tea tree pore minimiser:

• Fantastic light and refreshing formula.
• Works miracles on my around-the-nose pores. Shrinks them visibly.

I will get a full size of this one for sure. 

Chocomania body scrub:

• Smells awesome. I literally wanted to eat it. 
• Formula - not so good. I expected to be more rough as I need a scrub to be rough to really do the job. 
• Too much product is wasted without much to give back.

I am glad I didn't got the full sized product of this one.

Nutriganics Smoothing Night Cream:

• Formula - too sticky for me
• My skin felt suffocated by the cream. 

I know I never should use night creams and this one just proves me right :)

Chocomania Shower Gel:

• Formula - awesome. Small amount of product, lots of foam, cleans really well.
• Smell - My GOD! I want to pour this in a cup and drink it! :):):) 
• Price tag - not so nice, but I love their products and the fact that the company is cruelty free, so I will support them all the way.

Chocomania Body Lotion:

• Formula - very light, fast absorbing and moisturizing.
• Smell - see the above one (eat!) 
• Downside - it leaves a nasty taste in your mouth (comment left by my hubby every time I put some of it on)

Strawberry Body Polish:

• Formula - very very good. Exfoliates very well, creates light foam, so you can use it as shower gel as well. Its rough particles are good enough for my taste. 
• Smell - I dream of strawberry fields after using this beauty.

Overall opinion:

I am a huge fan of TheBodyShop ever since I found about them 5 years ago. Its been a real pain getting their products here (after I stopped flying that is), but I am over the top excited that I can get them. 

Cruelty Free, Community Fair Trade, natural ingredients, AWE-SO-ME smell and formulas. What more can a girl ask? 

What's your opinion on the brand? Let me know in the comments. Have a lovely weekend everyone!
