It’s back! All weekend long (ends December 16th), you can shop and save in-store at The Body Shop with the purchase of 3 items for only $30!
If you’re like me, you’re probably thinking, ‘but they just had their 50% off sale!?’ – Ahhh, yes. But! During this sale, think make-up and their quality $20+ skincare products. 😉
During their last 3 for $30 sale (which wasn’t that long ago), I decided to try their new ‘Vitamin C Skin Boost’ and I’m going to sound like such a girl when I say this, but ‘omigosh, it’s the best product ever’… ha! I honestly wish I had stocked up (guess what I’ll be doing today, lol) – especially given its regular price at $26 – Ouch!
I had a beauty mission in mind: the eye area and during my last trip to the The Body Shop I had a couple of items in the Vitamin C line that piqued my curiosity: their Eye Reviver Duo and their Skin Boost. Keeping price, value and volume in mind, I decided on the Skin Boost, figuring it should provide the same results as the little roll-on stick, and then some.
And wow! Thanks to this product I wear zero eye corrector make-up, any dark shadows seem to fade away. My eyes feel refreshed and awake – and the delicate citrus scent I absolutely love! A little goes a long way, although you may find yourself wanting to reapply as the burst of oranges and silky feel is quite addicting, lol. If you decide to try any product this weekend, I definitely recommend that you try their Vitamin C Skin Boost. A savings of $16 (before tax) at only $10 this weekend! 😀
What’s your favourite The Body Shop product?
ok i’m sold! great review. i used to shop at the body shop as a teenager for their orange lip gloss pots because they smelled divine…i absolutely love citrus scents and at $10 i think this is something i’d like to try!
I like Vitamin C Boost as well, but I’m not really sure if I see any benefit from the vitamin. It sure is a great primer. I only ever buy it when it is around $10. My only complain is that it doesn’t dry like a primer, it stays fluid/gel-like and clogs up the foundation brush.
My favorite is the Moroccan Rose Body Spray, not so much the perfume version, because it is lighter. I just love the smell of roses, but they are usually very expensive. (supposedly 100 roses to get one drop of rose oil!) It is about 3 times the price at Crabtree & Everlyn.
Unfortunately, it looks like it is being discontinued. They keep discontinuing all the products I like! (I miss bath beads!) The Body Shop is the first cosmetic/skin care shop I ever shopped in when I was a teenager. I will always have a mixed feeling of fondness and disappointment.
OK: Be sure to let us know what you think! 🙂
Adora: As much as I love the product, knowing that they have these regular sales, I agree with ya, I’d rather wait and stock up at $10 than have to shell out $26 (which is overpriced). Regarding it being fluid-like, allow it to set for about 10 minutes before applying anything overtop. I’ve rushed the routine of getting ready and have run into same problem a couple of times. I use their concealer wax-based pencils for touch-up and find it blends fairly well if you wait a couple of minutes. 🙂
Also, thanks for sharing your favourite product with us! I’ll have to check it out if they still have it available. I hate when they discontinue products too! 🙁 I keep hearing rumours that the Chocomania line will be discontinued at some point and I LOVE their scrub – so I really hope it stays a rumour, lol.
