The Body Shop Haul and Reviews

Today I will also share my The Body Shop reviews. 

They were all gotten over the Christmas/Boxing Day sales. 

I have combination skin with random breakouts and acne scars :(

Dryness is not really an issue for me although yes, my face tends to feel dryer in winter. 

I have quite a lot of blackheads along T-zone (Belif didn't work for me) and enlarged pores.

Tea Tree Range

I got this range mainly to help with my blemished skin because I have quite a lot of breakouts and acne scars. Unfortunately nothing has improved but in general nothing got worse.
The smell: I like it! It's not overpowering and I don't think it smells bad at all.
Then again, I kind of like the antiseptic and herbal smell.

Tea Tree Skin Clearing Lotion 15ml

Have been using this for a while but didn't see any effect. It's a lightweight lotion that is non-greasy and easy to apply. I apply to mostly my T-zones and spots, places that I want to clear up but don't clear up.

Tea Tree Facial Toner 250ml

I'm not really a toner person...didn't use this much. It's green in colour.
There is a tingling sensation after using, not uncomfortable for me or anything.

Tea Tree Skin Clearing Foaming Cleanser 150ml

I have been using this daily. It works well as a cleanser and cleans my face, other than that nothing much.
My skin goes around creating new pimples every now and then.

Tea Tree Oil 10ml

 I think my skin is beyond hope so this isn't working for me too. Basically you are supposed to dot a little on spots and stuff you want to clear up.
Tea tree oil is antiseptic so it should get rid of the dirt and bacteria and clear up your skin.

Vitamin E Range 

I got some moisturisers from this range.

Vitamin E Tinted Moisturiser Lotion 50ml

This works well, it smoothens the complexion and has a natural light coverage. If I don't find a better tinted moisturiser I will repurchase. There is no scent :) I can't stand moisturisers with strong smell.

Vitamin E SPF15 Moisture Lotion 50ml

I haven't used this much mainly because there hasn't been much sun and I don't stay outdoors much, also the scent is too strong/sweet for me.

Vineyard Peach Range 

No surprise I love peach and these were on sale.

Vineyard Peach Body Scrub 200ml

I haven't really used scrubs before, this one is alright, smells great!

Vineyard Peach Shower Gel 250ml

I still have an infinite amount of shower foams/gel so I haven't gotten round to use this yet. Smells good too!

I got the skincare kits because they were 3 for 2 and good for travelling, although I haven't brought them to travel yet.

Aloe Skincare Kit
 For sensitive skin, there is no fragrance and this range feels calm.
Also, the expiry date is 6 months instead of the usual 12 months for other products.
They creams do feel very calm, so it should be fine for sensitive skin. 

Aloe Calming Facial Cleanser 60ml
Untried

Aloe Calming Toner 60ml
Untried

Aloe Soothing Day Cream 15ml
Soft and light, decent for me :) Easily absorbed.

Aloe Soothing Night Cream 15ml
Soft and light, decent for me :) This is a bit thicker than the day cream, but still easily absorbed.
I have finished using it.

Seaweed Skincare Kit
For combination skin.
I am starting to get sick of the seaweed smell from the facial exfoliator. The rest of the products have a light frangrace that is fine by me.

Seaweed Purifying Facial Cleanser 60ml
Untried.
It's a very pale yellow gel. 

Seaweed Clarifying Toner 60ml
 Feels okay, hardly used.

Seaweed Day Cream 15ml
Not bad. It's a light cream and easily absorbed. Smells quite fresh and not as strong as the facial exfoliator. Smell disappears quite quickly too.
Hardly used.

Seaweed Night Treatment 15ml
Not bad. It's a clear light gel.
Hardly used.

Seaweed Pore-Cleansing Facial Exfoliator 75ml
 This is not part of the kit, purchased it on its own. It is brown-ish with some bits for exfoliating, I kinda grew sick of the smell. So far no difference in pores for me.

Nutriganics™ Skincare Kit
For the first signs of aging. Smells quite light and good though, probably no harm preventing ageing from an early age?

Nutriganics™ Foaming Facial Wash 60ml
Untried

Nutriganics™ Refreshing Toner 60ml
Untried

Nutriganics™ Smoothing Day Cream 15ml
Untried

Nutriganics™ Smoothing Night Cream 15ml
It's white and quite creamy, made my face feel a bit tight at first but now it's fine.
