A few weeks ago I attended The Body Shop Belfast’s blogger event. It was such a great night. The store looked incredible, we learnt about some of The Body Shop recent releases and were pampered with skincare consultations, makeovers and hand & arm massages. We were also lucky enough to get a little goodie bag of some of The Body Shop products and I ofcourse had to pick up the new Tea Tree Anti-Imperfection Night Mask!
Tea Tree Anti-Imperfection Night Mask
As soon as this was released I just knew I had to try it! I swear by The Body Shop’s tea tree toner, it works wonders for breakouts so I was hoping this would be just as good. This is a more intensive version of the toner. It has a jelly like texture which I absolutely love and it’s very cooling when you apply it. The best part about this mask though is the fact that it dries in really quickly so you won’t get it all over your pillow! I’ve been applying this every night after cleansing and toning but before moisturising. You can use this as a spot treatment and apply it just on breakouts or as a preventative treatment like I’ve been doing and apply it to the areas where you get most of your breakouts, for me this is my chin and forehead. I’ve only been using this for a week or so now but I’m loving the results so far, it’s definitely keeping my spots at bay and I’ll definitely be continuing to use it!
Pink Grapefruit Shower Gel*
Who doesn’t love a good shower gel? This pink grapefruit scented gel is so refreshing, perfect for a morning shower to wake you up! It hasn’t dried my skin out at all and I really like the formula. I’m going to have to pick up a few more scents! Do you have any recommendations?
Chinese Ginsing & Rice Clarifying Milky Toner*
I was really intrigued by this toner. It’s vegan, alcohol free and contains organic seasame seed oil. The aim of this toner is to make dull skin look brighter and smoother. I’ve only started using this so I can’t form a proper opinion yet but I really like how it feels on my skin and I haven’t had any breakouts or reactions which is a good sign! This is definitely safe for sensitive skin! I’m looking forward to seeing what effect this has on my skin over time.
I also got some little mini’s from the oils of life range, two face masks that I cannot wait to try (and will probably end up buying the full size!), a sample of the drops of youth cream and a little mini pot of the Chinese Ginseng & Rice Clarifying Polishing face mask. Have you tried any of these products before?
I had such a great time at the event and can’t wait to use all these products properly! Have you tried any of these products before? What are your The Body Shop favourites?

You know, I rarely buy products at Body Shop and I just don’t know why?!!!! These products sound amazing… time for a visit to the Body Shop ๐
Ooh this is awesome, I love the Body Shop – their products are just such an amazing quality. Love it xx
I also recently purchased the night mask and I am in love, my skin feels and looks so much better after using it for only a bit over a week! The Body Shop really knows how to do things right, don’t they? xx
I’m a big fan of the Body Shop products! If you like the pink grapefruit shower gel, they do a body sorbet and a hand cream in the range too, which are lovely. You may also like the mango and Satsuma ranges – I certainly do! I haven’t tried any of the face masks yet because I’m more of a sheet mask kind of girl, but I’d be interested to know what you think of them.
Ah, that sounds like the event was so much fun! Also, love the sound of the clarifying milky toner! xo

I still haven’t tried anything from the Body Shop but they are definitely on my must-try list! Thanks for sharing! xo
Pink Grapefruit is my favourite ever scent from The Body Shop, I also love the Stawberry Shower Gels and the Mango Shower gels!Xx
Sooo jealous!! Want to try so many of these!! Which one wouldn’t you reccomend the most?? The pink grapefruit scent is my absolute favourite!! Xxxx
I love the body shop but I find the products expensive, their products are a lovely treat once in a while. I think my next treat might be the pink grapefruit shower gel, it sounds so inviting!
I didn’t know they did bloggers events! That’s so cool โบ๏ธ I love their body butters and I’ve wanted to try their Drops of Youth face masks for ages now! xxx
Oooo I would love to go to a body shop event! I love the pink grapefruit scent, it’s one of my favourites from them x
So many nice products, I hope that The Body Shop will be available one day in Bosnia, so I can try some of their products. xx
I feel like Body Shop are really starting to come into their own again lately. I discovered their sun drops earlier this year, and when I went in to pick them up I could have spent a small fortune. I love the sound of the milky toner you picked up, I will add that one to my list! x
The Body Shop seem to be doing such great things recently. I love the look of that mask – think I might need to try it! Sounds like a lovely event xxx

Huge fan of body shop xx
I love the pink grapefruit scent, it’s one of my favourites from the body shop, it’s so fresh! You picked up some lolvey bits!
What a lovely evening event to be invited to! I bet you had a great time (and came out smelling delish!) I need to shop at The Body Shop. I used to pick up their body butter’s but I honestly don’t think I’ve stepped into a Body Shop for years! xx
I think I need to get me some of that Tea Tree Mask. My poor skin is not happy with me at all at the moment and it might be just what I’m looking for xx
I LOVE the honey mask you have the sample for. I also got the try the green tea mask when released and the smell is amazing, I love me a good mask, it always feels like such a treat!

It’s funny how The Body Shop are really coming back around – it sounds like you had an *amazing* time at the event! The sleep mask sounds great, it sounds SO versatile – I’ll definitely be checking that out next time I head to The Body Shop! Also Grapefruit shower gel sounds sooo dreamy!
Glad you had fun, can’t wait to try some of these products based on your recommendations!

Great post! I have mixed feelings about The Body Shop after previously having reactions to some products! However, I love the sound of the Tea Tree mask so might have to give it a go!
