    They also had an offer in store today where if you spend £15 on face care you get either a Vitamin E Sink In Moisture Mask (£11) or Vitamin C Microdermabrasion Gel (£12) for free although the SA did advise me not to try the Vit C 1 if I had sensitive skin at all

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I've never used any body shop products before as my skin is ridiculously sensitive but I'm going to give it a go and the mini body butters sound like they might be perfect as I can get a try of each to see which one works best for me :) Can't wait to spend my groupon :D

    You might like the new Earth Lovers shower gels too then as they are soap free. They had them for buy one get one half price so £7.50 for 2. I had a sniff of them today - liked the Watermelon and the apricot ones the best but I restrained myself as i have loads of shower gels now. :)

    You could try the ALoe Vera range, I got on ok with that and I have excema.

    Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!

    The shea is great if you have dry or sensitive skin, Ive always used the cocoa butter body wash and body lotion and its wonderful stuff (smells so good too!) and my kids use it too with no issues.

    Didnt spot the body butters were on 3.50 in store, but I really had to put my blinkers on and just try and get what I went for, as Im soooo bad at checking for bargains and spending more than I intended! :)

    If you try the butter and feel its a bit heavy for you, try the body puree or body whip that they do which is a bit lighter, but just depends what you prefer - I love their lip butters, they do a brilliant job! the lemon one is so yummy it makes me want one of the new Greggs lemon drizzle donuts ... my bad! :)

    happy spending!

    I love the pink grapefruit as well - tho I usually walk round smelling like a walking talking pink grapefruit as I use all the range!

    *CathWales wishes she had not seen this thread and even tho shower gels are at the best price she has ever seen she is trying to resist as she has about 9 BS shower gels and MUST use them first.*

    I don't know if people are aware that if your skin reacts to any of The Body Shop products they advise you to take it back. I have extremely sensitive skin and was trying out some of the Aloe range. I found most of the range brilliant but the Day cream & serum really stung my skin. I mentioned this to one of the advisors and she said I was to bring it back. Took them in the next day, saw someone different and she was very helpful in exchanging the products. Brilliant customer service.
