Review of The Body Shop Aloe line

Unfortunately, i don't have a camera at the moment so i can't review make-up properly because i can't take pictures of how it looks in my skin. But i can still write reviews about skin care products:) I usually prefer companies, that care for our enviroment so you can expect to hear a lot about The Body Shop, Lush, Thann etc. I hope you like it:)


Aloe Gentle Facial Wash
It contains 125 ml of product and it's very soothing. Leaves the skin clear but not tight or irritated and it is very convenient to use because of the pump. The foam is soft too. In UK the price should be around 8 euros. ( I don't have the check in hand but generally all the Body Shop products are more expencive where i live than they are in UK :s). All in all it is a good product and i reccomend for people who have dry and sensitive skin like mine is, but i wont repurhase it. It lacked a certain something that makes a skin care product the skin care product for me.
Next up is a Aloe Calming Facial Cleanser
200 ml of not worth mentioning product. Around 3.50 is the price in euros. It did nothing to my skin but irritate it. I got these extremly (wait, my skin is already extremly dry, so i don't know what to call these) dry red blotches on my cheeks and forhead while using this. I really really hated it (that's why i got the Gentle Facial Wash) and i will never buy it again. But then i decided that to give it to a friend of mine who also has a dry skin, just not extremly dry like mine is and she absolutely loved it and is on her 4th bottle of this. So - it might do some people some good, just not to me. And because of that i can't really reccomend it to anyone.
Aloe Calming Toner.
Let me say, that i absolutely loevd this one. It didn't leave my skin dry or irritated, it's alcohol and perservative free - i really cant ask for more. Price around 3.50 euros. Convenient to use. I will buy it again, many many times:)





The Day and Night cremes were both good, but nothing special. They weren't moisturising enough for me ( i should have used the night cream as a day cream and something else for the night) but they were calming and soothing. I really liked the packagin also. All in all good products but people who have extremely dry skin should look for something else, for normal to dry skin they could be your next holy grail products. I think that i will buy the night cream again:) Price around 12 euros.
The deodorant - one of my favourites:) It's really gentle and doesn't irritate your skin, and it doesn't leave withe marks while still offering enough protection for all the smell we realy don't want to talk about. I have and will buy it again and again. (One of my every day products)
Lip treatment - please please go to The Body Shop NOW and buy it. It really is that good, i have never used anything on my lips that is so moisturizing:) It's a little bit sticky, but with these super moisturizing powers it has i didn't really notice it. Around 7 euros is the price. I will buy it again. (Because i can't live without it)

I'm actually quite happy with the Aloe line and i reccomend it to you to try out. If you are not sure, then The Body Shop allways gives little testers so you can try your product for a few times and then decide if you would like to get it or not. About the prices - i took them form The Body Shop UK homepage, but where i live, they are much more expencive. Unfortunately i don't have the chech anymore, but if i remember correctly then the day cream is around 20 euros where i live.

All the pictures are from The Body Shop homepage. I bought all the products myself, and i think that The Body Shop even doesn't know that i exict.
