The Body Shop Strawberry Puree Body Lotion

This strawberry puree body lotion from the Body Shop is one of a range of body lotions, made from shea butter, designed to be easily absorbed and have an instant hydrating effect. Other fragrances in the range include jasmine, raspberry and papaya to name but a few. I got a 250ml bottle of this body lotion when there was a coupon in The Telegraph meaning it was completely free! Normally it costs about £8, which is quite expensive for a body lotion, but it might be possible to get some in the sales. Although it is expensive the shea butter in the lotion is made by women in Ghana, and their partnership with the body shop means they can provide an ...  Read the complete review

Background ----------- I still had money left on a voucher I received for Christmas and decided to see what was included in the sale at the Body Shop. Usually most of the items on sale are in "packs" usually in some form of bag. Most of the time there are one or two products that I don't like in these and I usually avoid them. On a table at the front of the shop was a display for all things raspberry. If there's one word that seems to halt me in my tracks, it is the word "raspberry." It doesn't matter what I am looking at, it could be house furnishings or in the food aisle but I become unusually interesting in all things ...  Read the complete review

I had a set of strawberry goodies given to me ages ago and this one was left in my drawer for a while where I had so many other lotions potions and creams, not forgetting Body Butters on the go. I love chopping and changing and trying new things but as I am not a massive strawberry lover I hadn't really been impatient when it came to waiting to try this, I can take or leave strawberry products and the fruit itself. I do like the body polish from this range though. This is a puree body lotion, not plain old lotion, they are slightly different. Purees such as this actually contain fruit and are gel based rather than cream based. Mixed into this gel is actual ...  Read the complete review

At Christmas I received a travel size bottle of this lotion as part of a gift set. I have a toiletry bag full of travel sized bottles, just on the off chance some rich, handsome man will whisk me away on a luxurious holiday, however it's looking increasingly unlikely, so I decided to get some of the products used before they go off! ~Packaging~ As mine is a travel sized version, it's slightly different packaging to the full size version, which comes in a bottle like the one above with a pump action dispenser. I've used body lotions with a pump before and I find them a lot more convenient to use, and the bottle doesn't get sticky from picking it ...  Read the complete review

Price: £2.90 for 60ml £7.80 for 200ml From: The Body Shop For: Refreshing moisturisation for normal skins The packaging is very clean and simple but high quality as with most Body Shop products. It's a clear plastic bottle so you can see easily how much you have left. It has a pump action dispenser on the top which is easy to use. It's a very nice gel textured lotion which feels so light and refreshing on the skin. The scent is a very natural strawberry scent which is not too sweet or overpowering. You don't need to use much of the puree at all as it spreads really nicely over the skin, and it sinks in really ...  Read the complete review
