This product is 100% biodegradable, comes in a 100% recycled plastic bottle and contains no sulphates, parabens or colourants. It's also soap-free. Without a doubt, The Body Shop are doing their bit for the environment.
Now let's talk about the product. This is a satisfactory shower gel from The Body Shop, with a lovely, refreshing scent. The pear and lemongrass aroma is not overbearing, yet just enough to put a smile on my face as I use it. The surprising thing, though, is the consistency. I was expecting a gel (given the title of the product), however the formula is very thin, almost the consistency of water. As a result, you have to be very careful not to lose it down the drain after you've dispensed some into your hand. I'm super-speedy now, so I've got my method down pat. Once you apply the shower gel, it rubs into quite a nice frothy lather, which is satisfying, and my skin is left soft and clean. Overall, a nice body product with a refreshing smell, but not ideal if you love thicker gels.
I've noticed that The Body Shop stores in Australia hardly ever have a sale, however I was lucky enough to pick this up as a '2 for the price of 1' deal at a shopping centre while holidaying in Singapore. Go me!!

Starring: (voices) Zac Efron, Danny DeVito, Taylor Swift, Ed Helms, Betty White
Genre: Animation/Family/Fantasy
The Lorax is set in the walled-in city of Thneedville, where everything is artificial. 12 year old Ted (Zac Efron) sets out on a mission to acquire a real tree, to win the affections of the girl of his dreams, Audrey. He travels out of town to visit the Once-ler, and attempts to undo the devastation the Once-ler caused when he ignored the protests of the Lorax and let his greediness reign. However, the Mayor of Thneedville is hell-bent on stopping Ted, since his profits are based on exploiting the city's environmental collapse.
The characters are brought to life by great voice work from the cast, and fantastic computer-animation. The hair on these characters, in particular, is just amazing. The film is colourful and just gorgeous to look at. This is one of those movies where hubby and I were just as entertained as our four year old son. A great film, that also comes with a strong environmental message, and a good one to see as a family.
Fun Facts: 12 year old Ted is named after Theodor Seuss Geisel, Dr. Seuss's real name. And Audrey (played by Taylor Swift) is named after Audrey Geisel, Dr. Seuss' wife. (source: wikipedia)
