Like a lot of people I am a massive fan of the Body Shop. They have a ridiculous amount of scents to choose from and even if I say so myself I've tried quite a lot of them. So I thought why don't I share with you my top ten, enjoy...
No.10... "Pink Grapefruit": I've only ever tried this scent in the body butter but I found that it was quite overpowering and that you smelt a bit like a fruit salad after putting it on. But other than that I do really like the smell and it definitely smells like grapefruit and I think next time I won't try a body product but maybe the lip butter for a more subtle smell...
No.9... "Raspberry": In this scent I've got the born lippy pot lip balm, I think it's called, and I quite like it. It is definitely moisturising for the lips and I've smelt the body butter before and it is definitely very fruity but I felt that if you didn't put too much on you would be OK. It smells very much like a raspberry and it is very fresh too... I've heard that in this range they have a lip gloss which I'm quite keen to try.
No.8... "Papaya": I'm quite a big fan of this scent because it reminds me a lot of summer and is very fresh and (this is going to sound weird) clean too. I find it's not too overpowering, but I wouldn't suggest putting too much on...
No.7... "Mango": I think this is a really lovely scent. It reminds me of being at the beach and cool air blowing onto your face. I have this scent in the body sorbet and I think it's very nice. I would suggest to use the body sorbet in summer rather than winter as it feels very fresh on your skin and is quite sticky so you don't want to be wearing it under lots of layers.
No.6... "Vanilla Brulee": The second I smelt this scent I absolutely fell in love with it. It smells a-ma-zing! I've got the shower gel in this scent and I absolutely love it, though I think in body butter form it would be way too overpowering for me, (which is why it's not higher up on the leader board). It is one of the body shop's sweet scents which is why I like it because it's not like their ordinary fruit scents.
No.5... "Blueberry": I have this scent in the lip butter and it is one of my favourites... It is very moisturising and the smell will definitely wake you up. To me though it smells quite artificial which has is why this scent isn't higher up on the "leader board". But over all I really like the smell.
No.4... "Japanese Cherry Blossom": I have this scent in perfume form and I absolutely love it. The design is really pretty and this scent in particular is perfect as a perfume. I would describe the smell as bright, uplifting and very flowery. The perfect scent for spring.
No.3... "Passion fruit": Just in general I am a massive fan of passion fruit and I could smell it all day. Which is why I like the body shops passion fruit range so much. To start it smells a lot like a real passion fruit which is quite nice and secondly it's not too strong and after you've used the shower gel you will feel like your on holiday.
No.2... "Glazed Apple": I absolutely love this range and in particular the body polish. You use it in the shower and it is basically a gentler version of their scrubs, which is perfect for me as the scrubs slightly irritated my skin. When you put it on it makes you feel like your rubbing sugar all over yourself, which is obviously a really nice feeling. It smells exactly like a glazed Apple, sweet, uplifting with the right amount of Apple.
No.1... "Wild Argan Oil": This scent is the most relaxing scent in the body shop, and that's why I put it at no.1. I have the shower gel and solid oil lips and they are both so soothing for my body and lips. When you use anything in this range it makes you feel like youv'e stepped into a mysterious world. It smells very nutty but fresh and is absolutely beautiful. This range is perfect for a pamper evening.
I really hope you've enjoyed this blog post. I had a lot of fun making it and I hope you had fun reading it. In the comments below, please tell me your favourite scent at the body shop is!
