The Beauty Products from The Body Shop
-
In the philosophy of The Body Shop, looking good and feeling good together. The beauty products are all natural and not tested on animals. Fair products that have been created in a dignified manner. Every year around the holidays, The Body Shop releases its Christmas collection that is linked to a good cause. In addition to beauty products, The Body Shop conducts campaigns and actions that focus on human rights and the environment. Since the sale of the company to the L�Or�al concern, sales have fallen sharply and The Body Shop is no longer a leader in beauty care.
The History of The Body Shop
-
In 1976 The Body Shop is founded in Brighton England by Anita Roddick. She starts making her own beauty products and over time has ten stores in England alone. The first store opens in the Netherlands in 1982. The stores of the chain are now spread worldwide. Almost every larger place has a Body Shop, check the site for this.
The Body Shop philosophy

The Body Shop takes a holistic approach to beauty and wellbeing, that is, holism adheres to the belief that everything is interconnected. Beauty and well-being are also inextricably linked. One cannot exist without the other. The company takes into account that the production of raw materials and also the distribution of products go hand in hand with respect for people and the environment. The products are not tested on animals and all beauty products are on a natural basis. Several stores have switched to green electricity, recycled material is also used in packaging and the company is investing in sustainable energy. More than sixty-five percent of the products contain a Fair Trade ingredient (a fair price for work under decent conditions).
