I loved the fragrance of the shower gel, so I picked up a few of the other Body Shop Passion Fruit skin care products. I picked the soap up and though I usually prefer shower gels, I like the moisturising properties of vegatable based glycerine soaps, and I wasn't disappointed with this soap at all. as with other glycerine soaps, I found it to lather nicely, clean my skin skin without drying it out or leaving a film. The scent was nice and fruity, it left my skin feeling soft and subtley scented. it is not an overly strong cloying scent, just really sweet and fresh. It isn't an expensive soap either, that's always a bonus. It fits very well in my shower routine, and it scents my bathroom nicely.

I sampled this at The Body Shop. I am always looking for eye products that sooth, I have allergies and my get get puffy and irritated when my allergies are flared. Within seconds of appling it, it didn't cool at all, it started burning my eyes and I started tearing up, and even though I removed it as quickly as I could, it left my eyes puffy and irritated for the rest of the day. I don't know what exactly in the product set me off, my skin really isn't sensitive at all, but this gave me the worst reaction I have ever had with an eye care treatment. This is a definite no-buy item for me!

I have 5 of these, 45-Star Silver, 10-Taupe, 07-Conker, 05 Burnished Brown, and 08-Golden Paprika. The only one I am not too thrilled with is 45-Star Silver, it is just too glittery for me, but the other eye colors are just great. I love the silky texture and they load on a brush very well. I had little to no fallout when I applied them. They are buildable, blendable, and last very nicely on my eyes, no smudging, no creasing, no fading even after hours of wear. They have a nice finish other than the Star Silver, they aren't really matte, but they aren't shimmery, they look very nice and don't settle in the fine lines I have on my eye lids. I like that they enhance my green eyes and look really natural. I like the little pots they come in, they fit nicely in my train case, and they aren't so small that they are difficult to get an applicator brush in them.

I like multi-purpose products, I like versatility. As far as this being a good cheek color, I was just not at all impressed. It went all splotchy and weird and dried too quickly to even blend it out, yuck. Now this product as a lip stain, I found it to work very well for my lips. It didn't dry too fast for me to get good even coverage on my lips. I tried wearing it alone, and it kind of left my lips dry looking, but when I applied a clear gloss, I found it more to my liking, and it looked really natural and wore very well as long as I kept a layer of clear gloss over it. I have also used it under lip color and I don't have to continually touch up my lip stick when I wear this under it. The lip stain base makes it difficult to see where your lipstick may be wearing off, and that is a bonus for me. I give this a 7 because it doesn't really perform well as a cheek stain, but it is okay as far as a lip stain. I like the doe foot applicator, and the tube is nice, it is transparent, you can see just how much is in the tube. I like the formulation too, the product doesn't tunnel in the tube as some other products in tubular containers. I don't have to use a lot of product to get good results on my lips, a tube lasts me quite a long time, so it is easy on the wallet.

I love to use this mist right after I shower. it seems to seal the moisture into my skin and leaves it moisturised, but not sticky, oily, or greasy. it smells divine too, another bonus for me. I love the fragrance of the entire The Body Shop Passion Fruit line. It isn't cloying or too sweet, it is just a wonderfully subtle fragrance that really benefits my skin and protects it from the elements that usually sap the moisture right out. I use this quite a bit, not just for the delightful fragrance, but the benefits I see when I use it. My skin is soft and smooth, and that is the best benefit as far as I am concerned, it works, and I don't have to use a lot of product to get the results I want.

This mini brush kit is just as great as any full sized brush kit, these brushes are amazing. They are made very well, the ferrules are firm, they hardly shed at all, and they clean up wonderfully. They rae cruelty free which is a bonus for me, and they are very reasonably priced for the quality. They fit well in a small handbag and they are just a great addition to any brush collection. They are very versatile, and you can use each brush for many different effects and applications.

I am really tough on my hands. I don't wear gloves when I do my domestic chores or yard work, but you would never know it. I use The Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector all the time, and it not only protects my hands and nails, it keeps them looking nice and very well moisturised. I like the fragrance, it isn't really floral or foody, just a nice green type of fragrance. I don't have to use a lot of product either. A little goes a long way. I also like that the packaging is recycleable, that helps the enviornment as well as keeping my hands and nails looking and feeling great.

I have a lot of make up brushes and just had them sitting in a train case. it wasn't an ideal situation. I saw this at The Body Shop and picked one up. I have to say for the money, it was well worth it. It stores my brushes far better than my train case. It is easy for me to find the brush I want, and it has various sized brush holders, so brushes of any size are accomodated. It also protects my brushes very well as it has a flap that holds each brush head in place. This is definitely a bargain as it keeps my brushes neatly in a roll that takes up very little space.

This shower cream is a wonderfully moisturising bath product for dry skin. It cleanses well, but it doesn't strip your skin. It seem to actually help seal in moisture. It has really great lathering properties and rinses off really well without leaving any sort of film on the skin. A little goes a long way, you don't have to use a lot of product to get great results, and a bottle lasts quite well for me. I really love the entire shea line from The Body Shop, it is a really effective line that really helps care for dry skin.

The skin around my eyes is pretty sensitive, and I have always been really happy with most of The Body Shops products, but I wasn't really thrilled with this particular eye make up remover. I don't wear water proof mascara, and I thought this would be ideal for me. I found it to be a little harsh for me, it made the skin around my eyes a little irritated and it didn't remove my eye make up very well. This just didn't work very well for me at all. Luckily, I was able to get it on sale, or I would be far more disappointed in it than I already am.
