I love The Body Shop for its skin care range because it is effective and comes in unique as well as luxurious scents. Since my mom is a The Body Shop fan too, this mother’s day I included this Fuji Green Tea body lotion in her gift. When I bought this it was new in stores and I was sold at the first whiff. Whole of Fuji Green Tea range smells absolutely refreshing and the scent is gender neutral so it makes a safe choice for everyone.
I chose lotion over the body butter because it was more weather appropriate and also I could smell the Fuji Green Tea scent much better in it while in the body butter it felt a bit muted by the denseness of the product. Fuji Green Tea leaves are obtained from Japan and they are known for their soothing and antioxidant properties. Formulation wise the lotion is pretty light weight, absorbs quickly and is ideal for day time in summers to keep oneself fresh. I also really like the packaging as the plastic bottle that it comes in is of excellent quality and actually looks like glass. It is tinted green and gives the illusion as if the lotion is green but in reality the product itself is white. The silver neck of the pump adds to the luxurious feel and you can twist and lock it which makes it safe for travelling too.
Fuji Green Tea has to be my favourite The Body Shop range so far scent wise and even though this is mom’s, I get to use it because that’s the best thing about giving gifts to mom. Haha. Kidding, she lets me use it and I like how it lingers on the skin for a good few hours. I will surely get my own bottle and pick up a few other products from the range.

I would definitely trying out this one …I thought it might not smell good but after this review I am …
I am surprised that you thought that way because even by the look of it it seems amazing to me! 😀
I'm glad it has a non greasy feeling. I would like to try it out during summers.
You totally should, dear! 🙂 x
I love most of the moisturizer by TBs and this one looks like its worth a try too 🙂 Prices is a little too much for budget shoppers though 🙂 Great review xoxoxo
That's the only reason why it gets 4.5 and not 5! :/ Anyhow, this is the first time I tried their lotion because otherwise I am a body butter gal! 😀
Ps:I love the mints in bowl :p <3
Hehe, thanks! 😉 It took me so many takes to fix an appealing background.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Body shop products are on my wish list and this one also added now.

Well While I'm fasting I'm more interested in the mints. haha! For the UK weather these lotions don't do anything. I need the good old body butter! Nice photography! http://www.natashakundi.com
Haha, mints seem popular! For winter I will have to switch to body butter too but for now, this is the best skin moisturiser for me! 🙂 x
i have this and i love how fresh it smells!
Ah, yes!
It smells so nice!
True!!!
the only product I've tried from The Body Shop was the Aloe Calming toner… and I've stopped buying that, too since I found a much more convenient and easy-to-use toner 🙂
Ayre
I haven't tried any of their face products yet, I guess. I might pick some but I do agree that they are quite pricey! x
This looks nice, but I am looking for a good face moisturizer by BodyShop. Let me know if you know of any?
