The Body Shop Give Joy

A few weeks ago, I received a tweet from The Body Shop asking if I would like to try out a couple of their veggie friendly products. At the time I wasn't eating meat and I felt it was an ideal time to try something new. 
Their random act of kindness was part of #TBSGiveJoy, as something I hadn't heard of before, I did a little investigating and it seems The Body Shop will pick people to offer some goodies too. Another girl I spotted was offered some of their chocolate products to try. 
After giving them my address, a few days later I signed for a package including the following products.

The carrot moisture cream is exactly that. The 50 ml tub is available to buy for £4, but is currently out of stock online. 
This cream is amazing. I thought the scent would be a little odd, being carrot, but it smells really pleasant.
The cream itself is slightly more thick than the moisturiser I usually reach for, but that being said, it actually sinks into the skin a lot quicker.
Since using this, my skin hasn't at all felt dry. I tend to reach for this now, even when I don't really need it. It kind of feels like a treat when applying it. 
I feel this tub is going to last a while, but as soon as it is all gone, I will most certainly be purchasing it.

The other product I received was the new watermelon lip gloss. Available to buy online for £7.00, here.
Apologises for the blurry photo.
This is a product I most definitely wouldn't have chosen for myself. In all honesty, I'm not a big lipgloss fan.
I tried this out and I'm in love with it. Something that always puts me off lipgloss is the stickiness, but this isn't sticky at all. It smells and tastes amazing, and gives amazing shine. 
The tube gives you a good 12ml of product and is easy to apply. 
The new range of lipglosses come in a huge variety of flavours. There's everything from strawberry and peach, to cocoa and lychee. 
I love this product so much, that I am now dying to try out some of the others in the range. 

Have you heard of #TBSGiveJoy before?
