“You’ve got to be hungry – for ideas, to make things happen and to see your vision made into reality.”
Dame Anita Roddick, Founder of The Body Shop
I have being a Body Shop fan since memories go back to my teenage days. Those days Body Shop was not available in India and a family friend will often bring me the Body Shop goodies from Dubai. It's been more than 10 years but am still in awe of Body Shop products. I love its 'lets keep it simple' style, simple but classy. Anita Roddick found The Body Shop in 1976, which became a part of Loreal in 2006. Body Shop's headquarters are situated in Littlehampton, West Sussex, England.
I lovedBody Shop's Moringa range of products. 'Moringa' tree is a native of Sub-Himalayan area of India. The bark of the tree, leaves, flowers, seed oil and roots are used for medicinal purpose.
All the products in Moringa range smells so heavenly and the smell is definitely very feminine..it has a tropical and a floralvibe. I like the packaging of the product and the humble yellow color looks lovely to eyes.

Moringa Beautifying Oil
The Moringa Beautifying Oil is a light weight oil which has Moringa and Marula. 'Marula' oil is a product from Namibia, extracted from dried nuts of Marula fruit. The oil can be used on face and hair both for a lustrous finish. I really like this one! The bottle has a small nozzle on top and feels really light on skin when applied. I would prefer to apply the oil on my skin rather than the hair. This is most suitable for dry skin. One can use it after shower or before bed time. I use this oil as a moisturizer. It is priced at Rs1095/- and can be bought here.
Moringa Body Scrub
Meet my new girl friend, I love this scrub!! The exfoliating scrub contains Moringa seeds oil and has a creamy texture. I use it twice a week. We all know how to apply a scrub, so am not going there. It definitely leaves my skin soft and the skin feels really clean. It is priced at Rs1095/- and can be purchased here.
Moringa Shower Gel
The shower gel is a soap free product with Moringa seeds oil in it. Lathers up very well with a loofah, leaves a lingering smell of Moringa for a very long time on your skin. I am a very 'shower-gel' kinda person, coz I find shower gels more hygienic compared to traditional soaps. So I keep trying different shower gels. This one is a big thumbs up from me. The product is priced nominally at Rs425/- and can be purchased here.
Moringa Body Sorbet
A sorbet is a frozen desert and a body sorbet is a body moisturizer with a twist. Yes, the texture is not that of a normal body lotion but has a sorbet texture which gets absorbed in the skin immediately. The texture is bit frosty, hence the name 'sorbet'.The Moringa Body Sorbet is infused with Moringa seed oils and smells so good again. I use it regularly and the skin feels hydrated for a long time. Store the sorbet in fridge, true to its name, when you use it, its going to feel very refreshing. The product is priced at Rs795/- and can be bought here.
Other products in the Moringa range are the hand cream, soap, eau de toilette, body mist and body butter and body lotion. Body Shop India is always offering occasional discounts, so you may try their online store. I am looking forward to their new launch 'Drops of Youth' range. Its in my wish list :)
Got the shower gel but haven't used it yet.
