About The Body Shop

The Body Shop is one of the world's most trusted specialist independent retailers of toiletries, as well as being a major UK business success story. The company was set up in the later 1970s by Anita Roddick, a human rights campaigner, to be an ethical and environmentally friendly alternative to some of the bigger, more established cosmetics brands and retailers. The Body Shop now has well over two thousand shops in over sixty countries around the world. Its ethical approach is reflected directly in its products, for example by only using natural ingredients and by being against animal testing, but also in the company's support of wider issues, such as sponsorship of Greenpeace in the 1980s. The Body Shop's range covers the main products that have made the company famous, such as full ranges of make up, bath and body lotions, skin care products, and hair products. However, they have now also introduced ranges such as home fragrance candles and oils, men's shaving foam, razors and aftershave, ladies fragrances, and a 'well being' line of massage and bedtime oils. The Body Shop's background means that they are keen to keep customers informed of their latest ethical campaigns, and also offer a loyalty club, which offers 10% off all purchases for a year, and a free gift on your birthday. Although they made their name as a high street store, the Body Shop are competitive in the online retail arena, with a huge range of their products available to order from their website and free standard UK delivery on all orders.
