Hello Lovlies!
So this week i was asked if i would like to attend Body Shops Christmas launch event on Tuesday evening and of course i said yes, would have been rude not too ;) The event was held at the Liverpool Bold Street Store which is a really cute small store which made it great for the event. So this week The Body Shop released their full christmas range which included some new exciting additions to their makeup range and i was luck enough to have a play with the products the day they were realised so i could share my thoughts with you all. 
The Bio-Bridge Campaign
Now at this time of year everyone is busy buying gifts for one another, well wouldn't it be great if those presents you were buying could benefit serve 2 purposes, 1 making the gift receiver happy and 2 making a difference to the world. That is exactly what The Body Shop have decided to do this year, whenever you buy one of their Christmas gifts you are also putting money towards their Wildlife campaign. For every gift you buy 4p will go to the campaign which will restore 1 square metre of forest! They are aiming to raise an impressive £200,000 for the campaign to help wildlife & endangered animals in the likes of Vietnam, Indonesia and Malaysia. To find out more information about this brilliant campaign click here.
Advent Calendars
So as we all know beauty advent calendars have been a massive trend this year (I am yet to buy one!) and the Body shop have created their own version's of the tradition advent calender. This year they have created 3 different options which is a great decision because it could appeal to different budgets. The great thing about all of these calendars is they all have 24 days unlike to which only have 12, they are all very luxurious and our priced between £60-£100 and can all be viewed here.
New Makeup Releases
To be honest i have never really tried any of the Body Shops makeup range but always wanted to give it a go , so it was great to see and try out some of the new range. For the festive season The Body Shop have released some lovely eye shadow quad palettes (£15) which are perfect for a day to night look and have a soft feel & great pigmentation. Whilst i was there i also got to try their new liquid matte lipsticks which once again have a lovely texture and have a great range of colours for only £6.
One of the main things that caught my eye was the new make brush range! I seem to have a bit of a problem with makeup brushes and just like to keep buying them and already i have a few on my wish list. The one that really caught my attention at the contour brush (£14) it just felt so soft and i think it may have to be purchased.
I was given a lovely makeover at the event because i was interested in their foundation and the lightening and darkening drops, the manager of the store who was extremely friendly showed me how the two can be used to contour and highlight which made the darker drops especially seem less daunting. I would defiantly recommend trying this product if you wanted to lighten or darken you foundation or even add to your moisturiser for more of a tinted look.
Signature Christmas Scents!
This year The Body Shop have released 3 signature Christmas scents! and i have to say they are all lovely & christmasy! The scents are Spiced Apple, Vanilla Chai and Frosted Berries. All of these scents come in a wide range of forms including shower gels, body butters, body scrubs, bubble bath, lip balm, shimmer mist and hand cream, as well as being in a variety of different gift sets!I think my favourite scent maybe the Vanilla Chai especially in the candle form (another great product you can get in all scents)
Here are a couple more pictures i took at the event of a couple of the new products and lovely gift sets! I especially love the look of the 'Spa Of The World' range! especially the beautiful wooden gift box!.
Thank you very much again to the lovely ladies at The Body Shop for inviting me to this event and giving me some lovely samples to try out for myself at home!
