CHANGEMAKING FOR YOU
“Beauty is an active, outward expression ofeverything you like about yourself.”
Dame Anita Roddick
FOUNDER OF THE BODY SHOP
To make sure that all our new products deliver what you need (whether that’s help for dry skin, dry flaky scalps, blemished skin, or tone-specific makeup) and what we claim (nourishing, hydrating, moisturizing or more resilient skin), we have a bundle of performance, safety and ethics criteria:
- At The Body Shop, we prioritize the use of ingredients, rooted in biotechnology and green chemistry, all from ethical and sustainable sources. Using synthetic ingredients only when absolutely necessary.
- We select some of the most powerful of nature’s change agents, and include bio-actives from plants.
- We conduct clinicals with dermatologists, large consumer tests or advanced in vitro measures, to ensure that all our products deliver real skin benefits.
- 100% of the benefits we claim are scientifically supported.
- We continuously collaborate with Research and Development labs, to get the best from our experts in different scientific fields across the group. Joining our expertise for more powerful results for you just seems the smart thing to do.
- We don’t compromise on performance, efficacy, or ethics. So, you don’t have to either. You get it all.
NOT ONLY THAT, BUT WE ALSO STAY AT THE CUTTING EDGE OF SCIENCE, TO PUSH OURSELVES, FOR YOU, TO REACH NEW SAFETY STANDARDS
THIS MEANS WE HAVE 1,835 BANNED OR RESTRICTED INGREDIENTS. THE MAJORITY OF THESE ARE REGULATED BY LAW BUT WE FEEL WE NEED TO GO FURTHER.
**And we will never formulate new products with these 11 questionable ingredients:**
Parabens, Mineral oils, Petrolatum derivatives, Formaldehyde donors, Cyclosiloxanes, Triclosan, Phthalates, Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), Cocamide DEA, MEA & MIPA, Methylisothiazolinone and genetically modified organisms.
ALL OUR FORMULA ARE REVIEWED BY TOXICOLOGY EXPERTS
ALL OUR FORMULA ARE TESTED FOR SAFETY BY A DERMATOLOGIST OR AN OPHTHALMOLOGIST
**We have 10 points of control on ingredients and 18 for finished products, all togetherdesigned to guarantee consistently high standards of safety and performance.**
PROMOTING SELF-LOVE AND POSITIVITY, FOR MIND, BODY & SOUL
WE ARE ON A JOURNEY
One thing is set in stone, everything we are doing is geared towards helping to make our world a bit fairer and a bit more beautiful, each and every day.
And creating real change. For you. For us all.
So, every ingredient we use and every new product we create is there because it works hard for your body, without compromising on safety and ethics.
And we will never lose sight of that.
At any cost.
