Christmas Skincare Saviours from The Body Shop

When the colder winds of winter start to creep up on us, we come to the sad realisation that we can no longer get by without wearing a coat. The cold weather doesn’t just mean we have to change our wardrobe however, the change in temperature can often have a huge effect on our skin.

Skin tends to become much drier – and for women of colour, keeping the skin hydrated and moisturised to ensure a healthy glow often requires us to up our game and intensify our regime during the dark the winter months!

Body moisturisers from The Body Shop are a perfect solution. A wide range of products at accessible prices mean that there is something for everyone!


If you want to add a little festivity to your body moisturising routine, then try The Body Shop’s limited edition Cranberry Joy body butter. A rich blend of shea and cocoa butters and sesame seed and cranberry seed oils provides up to 24 hours of hydration and leaves your skin feeling beautifully soft and supple – and it is mineral oil free – an added bonus!

    OMG that reminds me I gotta get my cranberry groove on. Its the only time I go to Body Shop, at Xmas to treat myself to anything I can afford in cranberry, both me and my home smell of cranberry, body butter is to die for and the glitter cream is a treat I keep and use all through the year even in summer on my legs for a bit of simmer ;0)
