STRENGTH FROM NATURE
WE NEVER GET ANY YOUNGER, BUT WITH THE RIGHT SKINCARE, WE CAN LOOK FRESHER AND BETTER WITH AGE
At The Body Shop, we don’t believe in age. We believe in the power of positive energy. Because when you look after your skin, mind, body and soul, your age really is just a number.
CAUSES OF PREMATURE SKIN AGEING
As we get older, our skin faces more challenges. Cell production slows and environment and genetic factors such as sun damage, pollution and poor diet become more evident. As result, mature skin looses its firmness and moisture, and requires more nourishing textures and active ingredients to work deep inside the skin.
TIPS FOR TAKING CARE OF MATURE SKIN
- Get to know your skin. It's important to understand how your skin reacts to
changes in the environment so you can treat it effectively - Follow a simple daily skincare routine. You should at least cleanse and
moisturise, everyday, and ideally add in a serum to treat - Stay hydrated! Drink plenty of water everyday
- Eliminate stress as much as possible.
- Take a look at our
Spa of the World Hub here for ideas on relaxation techniques.
THE STRENGTHENING & DEFINING TREE MASSAGE
"Massaging your skin is great for boosting circulation, bringing oxygen to the
area and helping remove toxins. It also warms the skin, which makes it
easier for moisturising formulas to sink in"
- Dr. Christine Choi Kim

ROOTED IN NATURE
Inspired by traditional Chinese medicine
Our new Roots of Strength™ skincare expertly harnesses three plant roots, inspired by ancient Chinese medicine. The Chinese have been using natural roots to look after skin and boost immunity for centuries.
GINGER ROOT EXTRACT
FROM THE VERDANT PLAINS OF MADAGASCAR
The Body Shop sustainably sources their ginger root extract from a community of farmers who've passed down their traditional farming
secrets for generations.
