You know Body Shop body butters are like an addiction. You start with one and end up getting all of them (like you promise yourself you will only watch one episode of Prison Break and end up watching half a dozen!). I thought I had my favourite body butter in Strawberry but then Cocoa Butter came along. Before I knew I was walking down the TBS store aisle sniffing Mango. And before I could think I had Vanilla in my shopping bag. Ofcourse all this didn’t happen in one day. Boy they are expensive! So I try to keep a gap of 6 months between my body butters. Well I’m now considering Shea Body Butter
for the winters.
The Body Shop Cranberry Joy body butter: Our iconic Body Butter in a limited-edition festive fragrance. It melts straight in to leave sk in feeling softer and smoother.

Between all that body butter party I forgot to mention the one I just fell in love at the first sight sniff. If you hate strong fragrances and if Chocomania gives you a headache then people this is what you need. Cranberry Joy smells pleasantly of berries. Its mild and not overly fruity which is a big yaayy since I’m not a great fan of fruity fragrances. Its one fragrance which all of my family approves of. S its safe to say its a universal favourite! The fragrance lasts very long (sometimes all day if you have applied generously). So there! Found a long lasting fragrance! And its very very moisturising. If you have dry skin then do check this out or if not then you can always get one for winters.
Mine is a limited edition which came out with the Christmas collection last year. But the regular Cranberry Joy comes in a similar berry red packaging. Both of them are totally similar. The light pink tint of the body butter looks so girly!
To sum up:
It smells of berries mildly
The fruity fragrance isn’t strong and would never give a headache
Its very creamy and moisturising. Would suit winter or dry skin.
The fragrance lasts for 8-9 hours easily.
Here are some photos for you. Its so cloudy these days that the photos come out a little dull.
The red packaging and the light pink tint reminds me of the Strawberry Body Butter
Price: Rs. 1095

So is it for you?
The Body Shop Cranberry Joy Body Butter is for you if you love mild berry fragrances. It isn’t strongly fruity but is a pleasant and happy fragrance. It moisturses dry skin and the effect and fragrance lingers for a long time. A must have body butter!
Btw it was raining cats and dogs here in Delhi last night. And the weather is still cloudy….exactly how I love it….except for the photography part ofcourse!
