One of my favorite things to buy in The Body Shop is their wide array of different moisturizing hand creams. All of their hand creams are delicately scented with fresh fragrances while being expertly formulated to leave a soft velvety touch.

If their wide array of quality and vegan products have not sold you yet, The Body Shop also carries a year-long special advocacy, not only during these Christmas holidays. Aside from its cruelty-free initiatives, The Body Shop has partnered with Plan International to help young disenfranchised girls all over the world to get access to education and opportunities for a better future. How can we help? Just purchase any product from The Body Shop this December, and a lofty share from sales will go to this worthy cause.
More locally, The Body Shop has also partnered with the Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation, which builds school boats for children in far-flung areas to safely reach their schools. This December, 100% of the net proceeds of The Body Shop’s popular Moringa Shower Gel will go to funding the Maluso Yellow Boat Community. How great is that?
This holiday season, give the gift of love and hope with your purchase from The Body Shop. Not only will you make your loved ones happy with your curated pampering gifts, but you also support worthwhile causes that could change the world. And that’s what the Christmas spirit is all about.
