*Who are Body shop and what are their advantages?*

The body shop is a fantastic place to shop for cosmetics and pick me ups and have ranges from children to men's, although it is mainly known for women to shop inside. People perceive it as expensive however with the offers, body shop card and January sales, body shop is affordable and you feel good for using their products. The first ever body shop to open was in Brighton where the franchise began on 26thh March 1976. Here are the values that the body shop supports:

* Community trade supporting fair trade in other countries buying high quality natural products
* Against testing products on animals because it's unethical
* Activate self esteem in its customers as its motto states 'know your mind love your body' and doesn't give false statements about its products
* Defend human rights so no child slavery or labour is used, and all factories and suppliers they buy from sets ethical standards
* Help protect our planet, they plant trees to soak up the carbon dioxide they produce, and are helping to use sustainable sources

*Who is this for?*

Anyone with dry, damaged or chemically treated hair (I'm bleach blonde with fine hair and it works miracles on my hair)

*Product design*

Honey moisturising conditioner is in a cream coloured bottle, available in 60ml, 300ml and 400ml formats, all with the same design. All the bottles have a flip top lid with a little nozzle for the conditioner to come out when tipped upside down and squeezed out. The front is pretty dull, with the name and community trade honey on the front next to a honeycomb.

*The test*

Being a love your body card member, I first tried this because I wanted my next stamp and was £2 off after my discount, so I thought what a better way than to try a travel sized conditioner. Two weeks later, I got it out and decided to have a pampering bath. I used Pantene shampoo before trying this and then applied the shampoo, and it smelt absolutely divine, the honey smelt lovely and sweet and just wanted to eat my hair up. The consistency of the conditioner is thick but smooth, and easy to rub in between your hands to spread on your hair. As with most conditioners, leave for a couple of minutes to soak in, and during this time you can wet comb your hair to help with the knots in the hair caused by the hair getting soaked. Combing hair with conditioner in means less split ends by yanking the knots out when you get out the bath/shower.

After the conditioner was washed out, I got out the bath and let my hair dry. As my hair is naturally straight (until I sleep on it) it needs no straightening when dry. As I ran my fingers through my hair it felt soft and smooth considering I've got bleach blonde hair so it's chemically damaged. It also still smelt wonderfully of honey, which with most shampoos and conditioners the smell doesn't stay on the hair for long.

Waking up the next day with a bushy tail on my head, I run a comb through my hair which was the easiest thing in the world and took a couple of seconds rather than the 5minutes it takes to be careful about yanking my hair out with fury because the knots won't come out. As I'm doing this i can smell honey still which a wonderful smell to wake up to. Straightening my hair as well was easily done and the honey conditioner has put moisture into my hair which counteracts the fineness/bleach hair/ straightening.

*Evaluation*

This is a brilliant product and it has worked miracles for my hair, it's soft shiny, smooth,
Fabulous, makes me feel good about myself and smells brilliantly. It's so good that i even bought the shampoo (although it's not as good as the conditioner) and have been using this for the last 2months because I am truly in love with this conditioner.
