The Body Shop International Limited is the original natural and ethical beauty brand.

Our heritage is an amazing story of firsts.

The first to create Body Butter, the first to use manmade musk in fragrance rather than cruelly-extracted deer musk, the first to transform the beauty industry with fair trade ingredients.

For 40 years The Body Shop showed the world that business could be a force for good, anchored in Anita Roddick’s pioneering approach to doing business. Our Commitment for the next 40 years, Enrich Not Exploit™, has three elements: Enrich Our People - Enrich Our Planet - Enrich Our Products.

We exist to make a positive difference to people’s lives. We create superior quality products using the world’s finest natural ingredients to make your skin feel so good.

We have over 3000 stores in 68 countries, and reach out to customers around the world through launching e-commerce sites, opening sub-franchise businesses and identifying selective wholesale in new markets plus adding new Global Travel Retail locations around the world.

Our people are passionate, independent, diverse individuals.
