I very rarely go in The Body Shop. I used to back in the day when it was all the rage but now there's so much competition for them that to me the place is outdated and overpriced and although I love the concept and what they do I much prefer lush and ranges that are available in Boots at sometimes a lot less than The Body Shop. However, I was talking to my best mate Pink who is a mind of information who was enquiring if I was still single (I was worried she was on the turn or summat lol). Anyway she had a solution she reckoned. I thought oh know she ain't gonna try fix em up like I'm a saddo is she?! No. Her solution was to get me to go to The Body Shop and ...  Read the complete review

Vanilla is not one of my favourite scents unless it is in a latte and in perfumes the vanilla need's to be balanced just right or else it can be too sweet and cloying. The body shop have been doing vanilla perfume for years and they seem to have the key to getting it just right. Available in a 30ml Eau de toilette for £8.50 from Body shops up and down the country it is certainly a bargain. It comes in a lovelybut very simple little glass bottle that represents the natural no nonsence approach the body shop has to it's products. It is a perfect size for slipping into your handbag for reapplying throughout the day. The scent ...  Read the complete review

I love foody, fruity and sweet scents and much prefer them to floral scents. So in the Body Shop I saw this perfume and as it's called vanilla I couldn't help smelling it, then taking it home. The bottle is as shown in the picture and is actually quite small (30ml). It's a light brown with a white flower on it. The only annoying thing about it is the tightly fitting metal cap which I just took off and put to the side. It doesn't need it and doesn't make it look different, just makes it annoying with slippery hands. It is a strong bottle which I have dropped quite a few times and it hasn't smashed yet. Body shop have a fragrance range called simply ...  Read the complete review

I have a thing for anything that smells like vanilla, and sweet foody smells in general, and so am currently using four different products with vanilla as the main or one of the main fragrances. This means that I'm constantly covered in what is essentially a really cheap, simple and sweet, 14-year old girly girl smell, instead of the elaborate sophisticated ones that come in expensive bottles and carry ethereal names. The fragrance comes in a little see-through, orangy brown glass spray bottle, with a tiny metallic silver-coloured cork. It is simply called "Vanilla" in two languages, which at first whiff seems to pretty much sum it up. ...  Read the complete review

I'm a huge perfume fan and just love spraying on different scents to see if it suits me. I usually go for light and soft scents as heavy scents just trigger really bad headaches. I happened to pass by the body shop today and was attracted by their lovely smelling scented oil candles that fill up the whole block of the arcade. I was drawn to their eau de toilettes and since I've been loving sweet, dessert scented fragrances, I just had to try this vanilla scented eau de toilette. They also have other products in this scent like body mists and soaps but I wanted to get the most intense scent as I know that body sprays tend to wear off, so this product looked ...  Read the complete review
