THE BODY SHOP The body shop has become a major cosmetic and beauty brand over the past few decades, It was founded by a lady called Anita Roddick, who has not only brought these wonderful products into our lives but she has also help change thousands of peoples lives around the world.

I recently obtained the Aloe Skincare Kit from The Body, which contains four facial products intended for sensitive skin, namely Calming Facial Cleanser, Calming Toner, Soothing Day Cream and a Soothing Night Cream. I would describe my skin type as T-zone although harsh facial products such as astringent cleansers can cause me considerable irritation, but I don't generally suffer with sensitive skin. However, I particularly liked the idea of this product as I believed it to be gentle and soothing on my skin. I have tried and tested each of the products with this review discussing my experience with using the cleanser. ~~ APPEARANCE OF THE PRODUCT ...  Read the complete review

Price: £3 for 60ml £6.35 for 200ml From: The Body Shop For: Everyday cleansing for all skin types, to dissolve impurities whilst soothing and refreshing.

I've always been a fan of the aloe Vera range from the Body Shop, especially when it comes to my face. I find the moisturisers suit my skin really well, so when I was last restocking I decided to try some of the face washes to complete my set. Not being a fan of foaming face washes, I chose the facial cleanser which works in the same way, but they are slightly gentler on my skin as they don't seem to leave my skin feeling so tight after use. The aloe Vera face cleanser actually describes itself as being just that, leaving your skin soothes and refreshed after removing impurities and dirt. Sounded good and at £6.50 for 200ml it's on par with others I have been ...  Read the complete review
