Awaken and revive the senses with the sophisticated aroma of our citrus-fresh scent of Fuji Green Tea™ Eau de Cologne. It’s the perfect blend of green tea, bergamot, lemon and mandarin top notes with a floral heart of camellia, jasmine and violet. Refreshingly light and crisp, it’s a classic scent for daytime sophistication.

A very unique, crisp, clean scent. At first, I was not sure about the Fuji Green Tea Scent....it was a little too 'different' from what I was used to in fresh scents....BUT it grew on me!
I am finding it to be a very unique and sophisticated scent...has some citrus, which I am always a fan of, and some herbal, and clean, crispness to it. In addition to the Eau de Cologne, I also bought the body butter, and the soap which you MUST buy as it has some WONDERFUL scrubbies in it and that same clean, fresh scent.
I use soooo many of the TBS scents and products, but this, along with the Vitamin E body Butter and the Mango line, has become one of my very favorites. I also love that there are several products in the line so that you can layer.
It is a great scent in the Spring, Summer and on into the early part of Autumn.....now am looking for a favorite warmer scent for the coldest part of Winter!

Love the smell - very fresh and crisp. Perfect for Summer going into Autumn. The scrubbies are very impressive. My husband also loved it.
I knew I was going to like it because I like the scent and I love exfoliating soaps....but again, the scrubbies are throughout the soap and very high quality....super impressed. Makes for a wonderful shower experience in the mornings.

Takes my Puffs away!

Okay, this little jar of eye gel has a special place in my heart. I am in my early 50s and have had puffy eyes for over 20 years. Now I am not going to fib and tell you that the puffs are ALL gone every day.
However, if I use this at night, I wake up with SUBSTANTIALLY decreased puffs in the a.m. and then if I re-apply in the morning after my morning skincare routine, I DEFINITELY notice the puffs going down once again.
No.....it is not going to take them away permanently. But in this case, PERCEPTION IS REALITY and it makes it so nice to see how I look after applying make-up ....much more youthful look. I don't have lots of wrinkles at all - especially for my age...but unfortunately I do have puffs and this little jar has been a wonderful discovery for me.
I have tried some very expensive lines and to no avail. I will definitely continue using this product.
I honestly can't say how it would work for dark circles as that is not an issue for me.

Okay, I got this kit and don't remember whether it was half off or whether it was free with a certain amount of product.....but recently got the opportunity to travel and took it with me to try it out.
I have dry skin and could tell that this was a Quality Product (cleanser, toner, day and night cream) The kit had a very nice sized amount to give you an idea of how the product works.
The Cleanser: Worked very well and my face felt clean and ready for step 2.
The Toner: Very nice toner. Even though this product is for 'all skin types' my skin did not feel dry or tight and was ready for the moisture cream.
Day and Night Creams: Again, very nice and impressed. I am very picky about my moisturizers because I don't like AT ALL to feel dry or tight skin. This product came through for me without feeling greasy.
Having said all of that, I will continue to gravitate towards the Vitamin C line, the Pomegranate line and the Vitamin E line, which all work nicely for dry skin. The Reason? I did not care for the scent of Nutriganics. It smells somewhere between nothing and medicine. Scent and aromatherapy within my skincare products is very important to me. It is part of what drives me to the bathroom sink at night even when I am tired and sleepy and the scent is sooo important to me in terms of relaxing, etc. In the morning it is what drives me to ensure I do all steps and the pleasant scents invigorate my morning routine.
Having said that, I LOVE the Nutriganics Drops of Youth and do not detect any sort of unpleasant scent, lack of scent or medicinal scent in that product....so maybe it is just with these original products within this line.
There are lots of people that love skincare products that do not have scent, so if that is you, then try this line as the quality is superior.

Treat your lips to our beautifully buttery Mango Lip Butter. The rich texture moisturizes lips and leaves them looking healthier and suppler. With Community Trade mango seed oil from India, the lip butter has a lusciously juicy mango scent and leaves a subtle, clear shine.

Mango Lip Butter
I am not sure why the lip butters are receiving some reviews about making your lips more dry. This one in mango is sooooo moisturizing and the scent is Divine!!!
A very nice sized container to stick in your purse for on the go.
I want to try this in coconut too!

Swirl on our slow-baked high intensity blusher for great color pay-off. With two complementary shades to choose from, you can add a pop of pretty pink under the cheekbones and a subtle touch of shimmering orange to highlight the cheekbones, for sculpted perfection.

This one is fun.....you have your everyday makeup for work, etc. but this has been incorporated into my daily make-up routine this summer and it has made my meetings, etc. more fun!
I am a light-to-medium complexion with a slight olive tone, so I selected the 'petal'....the coral has yellow undertones that are better for fair skin....so it is important to select the right one for you....fair skin may do better with the coral as these are a bit bright....but for me, the petal was wonderful.
They do not sparkle - just a soft shimmering glow that is perfect for summer fun.
You get a very nice amount in the compact so I expect to be able to use this for quite some time....makes it a good purchase.

I bought this Bronzer in Shade "02". My skin is a 'light to medium" and my awesome sales manager at my store is always on target with his recommendations.
Shade '02' has a tiny bit of pink in it along with the bronzer and it is so nice. Sometimes I use it to contour my cheeks, and other times right on the apples of my cheeks. I also use it above my eyelids so that everything matches and it makes it quick and simple when getting ready.
This is great for Summer, but I think it will be nice for Autumn and Winter as well because it is subtle and in good taste....soft glow....shimmer not sparkly. In other words, its appropriate for work days as well as evenings out.

Honeymania Body Scrub.....
In the year or so that I have been using TBS products, I have decided that the body scrubs are my favorite products.
I have also discovered that they are all different, with different ranges of scrubbing power, different formulas, etc. The scrubbers are all different ....some harder and some softer, just depending on your needs. I like them all!!!
Although the Honeymania scrub is in more of a 'paste' consistency, that is what makes it more moisturizing and I am excited to try it during the dry winter months as I am sure that consistency will be perfect. This scrub works best on skin that is not totally wet, so I recommend rinsing in the shower, and then shutting the water off while you apply this scrub. It works perfectly when applied to slightly wet skin.
Oh, and also the scent is wonderful....very feminine but not overpowering.....just lovely.
I have used the Peach Body Scrub (which actually is one of my favorites as it has really good scrubbies, but I also appreciate the gentler formula that virgin mojito scrub has)
They are all different, but I love them all and use one of them daily, just depending on the scent I want for that day!!! Soooo Fun! ;-)

Olive Body Butter:
I got this for free with a purchase of $60.00 or more earlier this year.
This is a nice herbal scent, and reminds me of walking in the woods in Autumn when things are fresh and cool.
It is not feminine or masculine - very unisex, so the whole family can use this when traveling, etc.
I have dry skin and this is very nice on the body and the hands. I love body scrubs so will need to try the matching scrub at some point.
NOTE TO TBS: You carry many Fruit scented and Nut scented body butters. I would love to see more 'fresh and herbal scents" being introduced (i.e., cucumber, basil, avocado, lemon, lavender, etc)

Do the V C capsules help even out skin tone and hyper pigmentation?

I have dry skin so I cannot use the Tea Tree or Seaweed products and the Shiso line is only available online so am wondering if the Vitamin C caps or Boost will help???

Our Vitamin E Body Butter is an intensive, creamy all-over body moisturizer containing Vitamin E, Community Trade shea butter, and cocoa butter. It absorbs easily, helping to condition, soften and smooth the skin, leaving your skin moisturized for up to 24 hours.
 

I own the Limited Edition Vitamin E Aqua Boost Sorbet, and I am in love with the scent. By any chance, does the Vitamin E Body Butter smell identical?

Thank you so much for your time!
I own a tub of the Vitamin E Body Butter, as well as the gentle face cream, toner, day cream, night cream, and the face mist (which absolutely rocks) plus some samples of the serum. They all smell very similar to each other BUT not exactly the same as each other. Somewhat of a light, soft, feminine scent, almost with a hint of rose, but not quite....anyway, I am not sure what the sorbet smells like as I do not use sorbet (my skin is dry) but all of this line that I have used thus far smells wonderful and I love the Vitamin E body butter.

I have many of the other body butter scents and use them during the day (switching out depending on the weather and my mood) but for night time before bed, the Vitamin E is very soft and relaxing and just puts me in the mood to fall asleep!

I definitely recommend it!! ;-)

Hope this helps!

An instant cooling sensation for all day hydration. This silky-soft moisturizer hydrates and refreshes skin with an ultra-light formula
 

Dry skin

Does anyone know if this will help dry skin.My facial skin gets dry and I am struggling to find something that works long term.My other vit e creams don't work as well as they used to so I am looking to try something new.
I also have dry facial skin and I love the Vitamin E skincare line from The Body Shop. However, because my skin is Dry, I gravitate towards creams rather than sorbets and definitely the original Vitamin E formula rather than the Aqua Boost, which I have sampled and is too light for my dry skin. Try the Original Night Cream - I even use that one during the day when I am feeling extra dry and it is wonderful. Hope this helps! ;-)
