The Body Shop introduces “Sparkling Winter Trend,” a new makeup collection, just in time for snow angels everywhere.

The new collection combines sexy shimmer, sophisticated glitter, and a touch of festive magic to create a look that’s pure glamour. Skin glistens with tiny sparkles. Eyes are dressed in feminine pinks, golds and silver. And glossy lips are shot with iridescence, and teamed with glittery nails. This is make-up that’s made to party! Look out for the special edition Sparkler, a boudoir-chic atomizer that dusts the face and body with fairytale sparkle. We also love the Stardust glitter pots, $10 each.

By choosing to bring a little sparkle into your life through The Body Shop, know that you can bring joy to farmers and their families in marginalized communities around the world.

The Winter Trend Collection features the highest quality of naturally derived ingredients, for ease of application and added moisturization, such as marula oil from Namibia, cocoa butter from Ghana and organic virgin coconut oil from Samoa, which are sourced through our unique Community Fair Trade program. All products are available at TheBodyshop.com

We’re giving away two Body Shop Eye Palettes to a lucky fashion-forward fashionista. The two special edition palettes in 01 Twilight and 02 Midnight each contain four pressed powder eye colors plus a shimmering highlighter that can be applied to eyes, cheekbones and browbones. $25 each.
