The Body Shop British Rose Body Lotion 200 ml

Product overview

The Body Shop British Rose Body Lotion is a light, milky body lotion with a soft rose petal fragrance. It is formulated for normal to dry skin and is suitable for anyone who wants to make moisturising a simple part of their daily body care routine. Its texture is described as non-sticky and non-greasy, making it comfortable to use when you want to get dressed after applying it without a heavy feeling on your skin.

According to the product information, one application provides moisture for up to 72 hours. The formula contains 94 per cent ingredients of natural origin, and the product is registered as vegan and dermatologically tested. Shea butter is one of the highlighted ingredients, alongside its distinctive rose fragrance. The lotion combines a light feel with a distinctly floral fragrance profile.

The Body Shop was founded with the idea of offering body care with consideration for both people and the planet. The brand has long been associated with everyday skincare products and an interest in ingredients and packaging choices that are more thoughtfully considered. For British Rose Body Lotion, the information states that the tube is made from 30 per cent recycled plastic and that both the tube and cap can be reused. This makes the product interesting for anyone who considers both how a product feels to use and its packaging information when choosing skincare.

The pack contains 200 ml. The lotion is intended for the body and can be used daily, for example after showering or whenever your skin feels dry. It is not a food supplement, but a cosmetic product for external use.

Active ingredients & science

The ingredient particularly highlighted in the product information is shea butter. The lotion combines this ingredient with a light, milky texture and a fragrance inspired by rose petals. The full ingredients list is available on the packaging and in the separate ingredients table.

No chemical form or bioavailability is specified for the ingredients, which is not relevant to describe for this cosmetic product in the same way as for a food supplement. Instead, the product information states that the formula contains 94 per cent ingredients of natural origin and has been dermatologically tested. Such information describes the product's composition and testing, but does not mean that all skin types will react in the same way. If you know that you are sensitive to any ingredient or fragrance, it is sensible to read the full ingredients list before use.
