The Body Shop revives classic products

The Body Shop has announced that it is re-launching some of the popular products it sold in the 1980s.

Among the items will be the banana collection and fuzzy peach and ice blue products, as well as cleansers, hair care products and moisturisers. They will all also benefit from new retro-style packing as part of the launch.

Dewberry-scented bath and shower gel will also be resurrected, after a poll conducted by YouGov in June 2009 found that 44 per cent of British women remember it fondly.

A further 63 per cent said that they also recall the personal care products provider’s anti animal testing campaign, which was launched in the same decade.

Last month, The Body Shop launched a campaign to raise awareness of child trafficking, which will see it team up with the organisation End Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and the Trafficking of Children.

As part of the drive, for every purchase of the company’s Soft Hands Kind Heart Hand Cream, the firm will make a donation to the foundation.
