What’s on your wishlist this festive season? If you’re looking for pampering beauty products imbued with the spirit of love and purposeful giving, consider The Body Shop’s Christmas advent calendars and holiday collection.
The Body Shop festive gifts that keep on giving
Each product featured in The Body Shop’s Christmas catalogue this year is enriched with ingredients and packaging from its Community Fair Trade (CFT) partners. For the uninitiated, CFT is the brand’s programme that supports small-hold producers — including pro artisans in Nepal and waste pickers in India — to “gain market access and invest in social and environmental projects that benefit their communities”.
Left - Unwind & Rest Sleep Routine Set, SGD99. Right - Zingy & Zesty Satsuma Treats, SGD13.
Furthermore, The Body Shop Singapore will also be donating SGD0.10 for every transaction made offline and online from November to December 2022 to Halogen Foundation Singapore. Halogen Foundation Singapore is a non-profit charity that aims to develop and nurture youths to become changemakers of tomorrow.
