    Looks like the shimmer cubes that are 30% off are in shades 'shimmer and sparkle' and 'warm'. They look lovely and I really want them both........but I'm trying hard to resist the temptation of a second order :p

    Edit: when I add both products to my basket (just for the purposes of testing out the glitch for you fellow MSErs you understand!!) only the shimmer and sparkle shade come up with the 30% off, though the picture it displays is not of shimmer and sparkle!!

    Which flavours would you recommend for a guy? I am looking for body lotions (what is the difference between lotion and butter anyway?)

    I also use perfume; so wondering if that would clash with the shower gel and/or body lotion's fragrance?

    I bought Body Shop gift for my mum before, and used their almond milk body lotion. It was fantastic!

    The Hemp range is quite masculine I think. Body lotions are lighter and easily absorbed and the butters are much richer. The fruit scented butters are lighter than the coconut and shea (they are almost quite solid and melt when you rub them in and I find them great for night time but too rich for during the day) Also the shea range has a light fragrance that should be ok with your perfume.

    Well I had been resisting the urge to order ever since the glitch post went up. I had already received the 2 orders I place with the 30% off and bogohp with the mascara. However when I saw that the free delivery was ending soon I broke! To be fair to myself I did ring my mum hoping for her talk me out of it, but 70% saving was just too much for her to ignore too!

    I got:
    Spa Wisdom Pamper products (50% off)
    Coconut Shower Gel (free)
    Coconut Body Butter (free)
    Moringa Milk Lotion (free)
    Coconut Lip Balm £4
    Coconut Soap £2

    Then used the £5 off code to take it down to £21.

    Would have liked the Coconut Milk Lotion for that gift set but not complaining - its my fault for faffing for so long.

    So now I've convinced myself they were bargains I now need to work out who would actually like them as presents!!

    My first and only order arrived today. The Spa Pamper stuff, the 3 free gifts and shower gel and soap. I spent £21 but the full price would have been £71. I am pleased with it all but if I had paid the full price, I would now be seeking legal advice!

    Thanks a lot. There are so many to choose from! Now that i know the difference I will prefer lotion than butter. Will probably head down to a store to smell the men's body shower range and order it online.

    Please end the glitch - PLEASE!

    I managed to stave off a second order myself by encouraging my mum to let me put an order through for her after she smelled my Moringa Body Scrub. I then made dummy orders for fun ...:o

    However, I started getting really angsty this morning and realised I needed another "fix" so, I've just spent another £17 :eek:. I really need to stop spending as won't be able to work for 10 months next year because my course will be very intense, and with course fees and costs of living in London I will be forking out about £25,000 :eek:. What good is smelling divine and being silky soft all over when you are eating spam and baked beans from a tin? The Body Shop is not helping me save! I thought it was supposed to be an ethical company :rotfl:.

    MY OH likes Almond and Shea butter and Cocoa something or other. :) Er- assume this is a gift as most men don't wear perfume....
    Less stuff, more life, love, laughter and cats!
    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!
