One of the brands that always impresses me with their new launches is The Body Shop, and as soon as I see a new product launch I rush to the store, and most of the time I end up buying a bag full of new goodies to try. I love how quickly they launch amazing products, and their recent skincare launches have been out of this world (but more about that in another post)! Every year around this time, I look forward to Christmas with The Body Shop, seeing which scents/variants have been launched, and of course taking full advantage of the 3 for 2 specials.
I am sure you know by now that there is no Apple Variant this year, boo boo, but my favourite scent from last year, Vanilla Chai is back, along with Frosted Berries, as well Frosted Plum from 2015!
I received a big box of goodies from *The Body Shop recently, which I will be working my way through soon, and the *Frosted Berries Body Butter and *Frosted Plum Shimmer Mist were included. But I obviously needed to buy something from the Vanilla Chai range too, you know, for a complete review, and because I absolutely love the scent. So, I got myself the Scented Candle and Body Butter. After writing this post I actually bought a back-up of the Vanilla Chai Body Butter, and the Frosted Plum one too.
I love that both of the Body Butters are for Dry Skin, which means they are really hydrating and nourishing. The Vanilla Chai Scented Candle is wonderful, it is warm and cosy, and makes me feel relaxed as if I am curled up with chai tea under a blanket. Chai tea is my favourite, and a daily need in my life! The Shimmer Mist has the light and floral scent of Frosted Plum, and is perfect for the festive season to make you smell good and shimmer the night away.
Each scent has several products ranging from Body Butters to Shower Gels, as well as two gift sets. You can check out the Christmas Catalogue for all of the details.
Frosted Berries- infused with cranberry seed oil from North America- a fruity, fresh and festive scent.
Frosted Plum- enriched with plum extract from Turkey- a light, floral and indulgent scent.
Vanilla Chai- warmed with vanilla extract from Madagascar- a warm, spicy and sweet scent.
What is your favourite Christmas scent from The Body Shop?
Don’t forget, this festive season, The Body Shop has teamed up with Sisanda charity to support disadvantaged children within South Africa. The Play for Peace Project gives children the opportunity to be children, and provides a safe place for them to heal and play, as well as deal with their trauma in a non-violent way. Every Selected Gift Set bought helps to support this project.

Ah man! I like glazed and spiced apple! Perhaps there will be an apple one this year! Just 11 months to go !
You really can’t go wrong with body shop gifts x

Agreed! I am happy when I get anything from The Body Shop!
I adore the body shop and your snaps capture these products so perfectly!
Thanks Rosie, yip me too!
I think my favourite ever Body Shop scent was last years Frosted Cramberry? At least that’s what I think it was called… perhaps it was pomegranate actually!
Whatever red frosted scent they had last year, I bought so much in that, including candles!
Much love, Caitylis x x
It was Cranberry, it was really nice! I didn’t get the candle last year and regretted it, so I stocked up this year!
For some reason, I don’t shop in The Body Shop very often but I love their products! I think I might treat myself to something from their Christmas range! xx

Yes, do it! The scented candles are lovely!
I’m crazy about Vanilla Chai and Frosted Plum- love them!
Me too on the Vanilla Chai! I cannot get enough!
Oh I love the BodyShop! Loving these products x
Yes me too! I have stocked up on the Christmas products
Ooo… the Shimmer Mist sounds lovely! I have a couple of their perfume oils that I really like. I don’t go into The Body Shop often, because I’m allergic to the vast majority of their products. But I’ll definitely be taking a trip in to check out the Shimmer Mist! Xx

The mist is refreshing and of course shimmery! Oh no, what are you allergic to?
Oooh I love the Body Shop but haven’t been in there for ages! I had an email from them today actually, really must head down there and try out some of their new products! I’ve always loved their lip butters especially – so good and they all smell gorgeous! x
Yes, you definitely should pop in! And I am sure they have some specials on!
I really wish I had access to the Body Shop here in Waterford but the closest store is in Cork…😞😞 that said I love the look of the frosted plum products x
I go there way too much, haha! They are awesome!
The bodyshop gift sets are the ultimate festive sets!
They are, and I love the candles!
I absolutely love The Body Shop at Christmas xx
Me too Alice! And after Chritmas when the sales are on!
Yes!! The Vanilla Chai is absolutely amazing! I was obsessed with Chai lattes when i was pregnant and they smell just like them!
Yay, so glad you love it too! I can’t get enough of it!
The frosted plum scent is my favourite!
