SPREAD THE LOVE & SHARE THE JOY – WITH THE BODY SHOP’S NEW CHRISTMAS GIFT COLLECTION
by Prashat Kapadia /NHN
There’s no greater joy than giving, and The Body Shop’s new, best ever Christmas gift collection is bursting with love and care. This year, they’re spreading love and kindness with stocking sized
treats and epic showstoppers packed with body-loving goodness for every body, every budget.
Featuring packaging that’s kinder to the planet with clever, reusable constructions, this year’s line-up also supports The Body Shop’s Community Fair Trade partners behind their most- loved gift boxes and jute bags. Plus, every purchase over the Christmas period will help support thousands of unpaid carers, as they’ll donate a minimum of £500,000 to organisations across the globe that shine a light on their ultimate acts of selfless love
The Body Shop is proud to announce that their gift packaging is also more sustainable than ever before.
They’ve removed the last remaining plastic components from their advent calendars, saving 29 tonnes (that’s around 112,000 Christmas baubles!) Plus, they’ve expanded their range of bath and body accessories made with sustainable alternatives to plastic.
Their bath lilies are now more sustainable than ever, made with ramie, an eco-friendly fibre, helping to save over 50 tonnes of plastic across the whole collection. That’s the same as 1.8 million plastic water bottles.
And to make buffing that body a little better for the planet, they’ve created a jute scrubber, handmade with materials sourced through their Community Fair Trade partner, and a new biodegradable konjac sponge. Pretty cool, right?
And the cherry on the top? They’ve designed most of their gift packaging to be reused or repurposed too, so your treats and surprises have a long life after Christmas.
