The Body Shop Vanilla Pumpkin

 Winter is coming. No wait, Autumn is coming!

To celebrate the forthcoming season of cooler days, burnt orange tinted trees, falling leaves, hot chocolates and warm blankets The Body Shop has once again delivered with a fabulously comprehensive collection of products to comfort and delight.

For me, Vanilla Pumpkin is my favourite seasonal addition to the Body Shop line thanks to its warm , comforting and wonderfully addictive scent.

This year, the collection has expanded with three new additions to fawn over in the form of the  Pumpkin Instant Radiance In-Shower Mask and the cuter than cute Pumpkin Spice Lip Juicer.

But more about these little gems later.

First up is the Vanilla Pumpkin Shower Cream (£6.50).

This deliciously rich and creamy shower gel is perfect for transforming your shower or bath into an autumnal wonderland thanks to its addictive notes of sweet vanilla extract, baked pumpkin, caramel, maple syrup and almond milk.

Release the reassuring, soothing scent by applying a generous dollop to a sponge and enjoy the sensation as plentiful, soft frothy bubbles foam up, enveloping both your body and senses.

Gentle to skin, it leaves your skin feeling clean, soft and lightly scented.

Bath bombs more your thing? Fear not, sink back into a warm tub and enjoy a seasonally tinted bath with the Vanilla Pumpkin Fragranced Bath Bomb (£5).

 

Presented in the form of a sweet little pumpkin, this bright orange little bomb fizzes instantly on contact with warm water, releasing its warm, gourmand pumpkin scent while transforming your bath into an autumnal orange paradise.

Created for normal to dry skin, its delicate formula soothes both body and mind, leaving you feeling wonderfully relaxed and comforted.

Why not take things up a notch and treat yourself to a real spa-like pampering with the inclusion of the new Pumpkin Instant Radiance In-Shower Mask (£18).

This thick, rich, whipped face mask helps to gently exfoliate dry, dead skin cells to reveal a brighter, healthier looking complexion in a matter of minutes.

Made with 96% ingredients of natural origin, the mask has been formulated with natural pumpkin enzymes and cranberry fruit powder which are both known for their exfoliating properties.

Apply a generous layer to damp skin and gently massage in circular motions avoiding the eye area.

Suitable for all skin types, its light yet rich, ever-so-grainy but not at all abrasive texture gets to work in just 5 minutes to revive and rejuvenate a tired, dull complexion leaving your skin feeling beautifully soft and visibly more radiant.

Continue your fragrant experience with the decadent and delicious Vanilla Pumpkin Whipped Body Butter (£18).

 

Offering long lasting hydration without the associated heavy, cloying texture, this lightweight, almost fluffy body butter features a luxurious, whipped texture and of course, the same delightful sweet scent.

Its soft, silky non-greasy texture allows the gel-like butter to glide across your skin with ease before being absorbed almost instantly, meaning no waiting around for it to dry.

Your body is left feeling wonderfully soft and smooth, comfortable and nourished all day long.

While you’re treating your body to a little TLC, it’s definitely worth remembering your hands which can suffer with dryness as the winter months roll in.

The Vanilla Pumpkin Hand Cream (£5.50) has got you covered though so don’t fret.

Soothe dry, chapped hands in an instant with this gorgeous community fair trade shea butter and babassu oil infused hand cream.

 

Thick and rich but non greasy, the gel-cream formula quickly quenches dry skin without leaving a greasy residue.

Last but by no means least is another newbie to this timeless collection, the Pumpkin Spice Lip Juicer (£7).

The latest addition to the brands moisturising Lip Juicers, Pumpkin Spice offers a shimmery copper tint, paired with a delectable scent.

Enriched with community fair trade organic olive oil, this compact little gem offers long lasting moisture to dry, parched lips.

Silky, smooth and hydrating it plumps and protects your lips against drying out while offering a subtle sheen to create the illusion of a fuller pout.

 

Perfect for popping in your bag for on the go application and top ups, I am beyond thrilled that they’ve launched this edition as I simply cannot get enough of the luscious scent.
