The Body Shop Body Yogurt Review

Fro-yo girl here. A friend of mine was kind enough to give me a few tubs of The Body Shop’s Body Yogurt for Christmas. I haven’t been to The Body Shop in years and didn’t even know that they had body yogurt. It seems like their body yogurt was launched last year. The current scents are British Rose, Moringa, Pink Grapefruit, Almond Milk, Strawberry and Mango. The 6.98 oz (198 g) tubs retail for $15 each.

Body Yogurt is 100% vegan and made with organic almond milk from Spain. The Body Shop calls their body yogurt a lightweight, fast-absorbing gel-cream that provides up to 48 hours of moisture. They recommend applying it to damp skin straight after the shower.

The texture isn’t as thick as body butter. It’s lighter and more like a gel-cream hybrid. The texture is actually similar to yogurt. It did absorb right away when I applied it after my bath. A few hours later, I didn’t feel like my skin was still moisturized. The strawberry yogurt doesn’t smell nice. It has a powdery fake strawberry scent, like a cheap candle or lipgloss. The mango yogurt smelled better, like apricot. Anyway, I prefer the body butter because it’s more moisturizing and you can apply it any time.
