Body Shop's Tinted Lip Colour was the first lipstick I ever bought. I was 12 or 13.

I was just about to do a thread on this... it's so sad. She was incredibly ahead of her time and a pioneer for human, animal and environmental activism.

This is sad! The very first time I set foot in a Body Shop was in London. I still love the place

wow, I just found this out today at their store in Lenox mall. have been a fan of ALL of their products for years (especially their body butters). back in the day just receiving their catalogs was a treat. she will definitely be missed.

The Body Shop's Hemp Hand Protector is the best hand lotion/cream ever...hands down (ha!).

Seriously, it's the best. Plus they have some great bath salts.
