Since green is still an abstract concept where I live, a delivery of the Fuji Green Tea collection from The Body Shop is a perfect way to ‘push the season’. Crisp, clean, and exceptionally fresh, the fragrance of this latest bath and body collection is almost effervescent. While many associate the aroma of green tea with warmer months, I find this bright and balanced scent a casual year round staple. Not unlike a dry rosé.
Inspired by its ceremonial treatment in Japan, The Body Shop went directly to the source and is keeping it real with leaves picked locally from the Mount Fuji region. Known for its purifying and detoxifying benefits, this antioxidant rich herb has been an ingredient in skin care formulation for centuries. With soothing, healing, and protective properties, green tea is as good for your body as it is for your skin and senses.
The Fuji Green Tea collection offers a number of choices to fulfill every cleansing, exfoliating, and hydrating need. With varying textures and consistencies, fans of the iconic Body Butter must be thrilled about this new addition. For those who prefer a lighter option, there is the traditional Body Lotion in a pump bottle. And my new favorite: Body Sorbet. This weightless gel is whipped to airy perfection and absorbs instantly, which makes it an ideal morning body moisturizer when waiting to dress is not on the agenda.
Body cleansing courtesy of The Body Shop is the ultimate sensory experience as their scents are extremely on point. Every preference is taken into consideration with options of the Body Wash, Exfoliating Soap or Body Scrub. Fuji Green Tea channels full on zen and provides a remarkable spa quality experience. Bursting with pure, green and herbal tones with a dash of citrus, you will feel refreshed, centered and most of all, sparkling clean, regardless of which product you choose!
Making detox relaxing, the Fuji Green Tea Bath Tea delivers the purifying perks of salts with rejuvenating powers of real green tea leaves. A must have for all who love to soak with a book and a glass on a quiet night in, these crystals are truly mood altering. Pick up the Bath Infuser, sold separately, to make the entire experience completely clean-up free.
The Fuji Green Tea Eau de Cologne makes for a fantastic body spray but if you’re as obsessed as me, you will use it on your linens and towels, too. Try spraying it on the skin right after a shower and apply a body moisturizer over it to lock in the scent. Remember that layering a fragrance doesn’t extend its range but rather its longevity. While all fragrances from The Body Shop tend to linger softly, I want this latest to follow me forever.
