BODY & SOUL The Body Shop is making a comeback – and launching 7 new products – here are our honest thoughts
THIS time last year, it looked like we might be losing The Body Shop for good.
In February 2024, the high-street beauty retailer went into administration, prompting 75 store closures and nearly 800 job cuts in the UK.

A combination of dwindling Christmas sales, changes in beauty trends and rising inflation had led to The Body Shop's downfall - despite it being worth £207million in 2023.
Once the pioneers in sustainable beauty - the brand was the first global beauty label to unite against animal testing - it looked like it might be closing its doors forever.
But, thankfully, it's come back with a bang!
In 2024, a deal was struck between The Body Shop and cosmetic retail tycoon Mike Jatania, who acquired the business with his consortium, Auréa.

RARING TO GO Rare Beauty has just launched another blush - but will this one go viral?
With ambitious plans to keep all 113 stores open, The Body Shop is up and running, and in the black again, cashing in a healthy £2m profit during its first three months with Auréa.
The Body Shop's social media accounts are booming, its stores are getting busier, and it's just dropped two exciting limited-edition product ranges - the cosy, warming Tender Tonka, and the zingy, summery Refreshing Passionfruit.
Here's everything you need to know.
Tender Tonka Limited Edition Range

This lightly spiced, cosy fragrance has a festive feel to it, despite being launched during one of the warmest springs on record.
With notes of creamy vanilla orchid, aromatic incense and fresh cedar, it'll keep you warm on al fresco summer evenings.

How To Save Money On Beauty Buys IF your purse is feeling tighter than ever before and you're looking to save cash on your make-up routine, have you ever thought of trying out beauty dupes? Here are five of the best recommended beauty buys that are almost identical to the posh versions, but at a fraction of the price. FACE BASE If you can't afford Charlotte Tilbury 's £52 Magic Cream, why not try a dupe that costs just £5.49 from Superdrug? TONE IT UP If Drunk Elephant's £62 Protini Cream is out of your price range, you'll need to check out the new dupe in Home Bargains. TINTING IT With Fenty's game-changer skin tint costing £29, a popular supermarket's affordable alternative might just be the thing for you. GET COVERED At £29 for a Tarte concealer, the new Primark dupe is much more affordable at just £3.50. SPRAY YAY For those wanting to smell fresh without the price tag, Aldi's new Prada and Chloe perfume dupes cost a fraction of the price.
