The Body Shop Superfood Face Masks – Is it feasible to buy them?

Hello Friends!🙏

Happy Women`s Day lovely ladies! So to start with I am writing this blog after quite long time (a month, may be) …. Reason? Blogging is just an interest and I really don`t want to miss my studies for this. Now c`mon how can 1 post a week hampers my studies? To that, I would say “I am lazy”. Another thing, I would like to add that my immune system has become lazy too, I’m falling ill frequently now-a-days😓.

Today I went to Acropolis Mall, Yay! I enjoy going there recently, just to hangout. However, today I got greeted with a beautiful rose, that`s because today is International Women`s Day. The lady (who usually checks the bags) greeted me with a rose, and a man clicked a picture of that incident. That picture was one of the featured picture in their social media page, so double Yay! I am happy. Must say, the Acropolis Management knows how to draw traffic (only next time, please shred off the thorns😄 of the flowers).

Recently, people are eulogizing about “The Body Shop Superfood Face Masks”. I find people from all over the world are talking wildly about the goodness of these masks. I came across tons of good reviews on YouTube as well as on various blog posts. The features of these Superfood Face Masks are:

  • All of these, Superfood Face Masks are 100% “Vegetarian”,
  • Three of these masks are 100% Vegan,
  • They all have decent smell (I personally haven`t tried any),
  • These masks are made of choosiest ingredients from all over the world, and
  • Last but not the least, they work wonders for skin.
There are 5 varieties available in this skincare range, as follows:
  1. British Rose Fresh Plumping Mask (100% Vegan),
  2. Ethiopian Honey Deep Nourishing Mask,
  3. Amazonian Acai Energizing Radiance MASK (100% Vegan),
  4. Chinese Ginseng and Rice Clarifying Polishing Mask, and
  5. Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Glow Mask (100% Vegan).



Today, I went to “The Body Shop” showroom at Acropolis, just to take a glance of these Superfood Face Masks. How can I miss the chance when I was there? The masks are beautifully exhibited at the entrance of their showroom. Each main ingredient (such as Charcoal representing the main ingredient in Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Glow Mask) is placed beside their respective Mask jar. These masks come in a small glass jars with 75 ml of product in each variant.

Until this, everything was fine for me. Nevertheless, no sooner I turned the displayed jar to search for the price. My goodness! Each of them priced at ₹ 2,495. The price of each of these masks is steep! I cannot afford a mask at this price range. Moreover, is it feasible to get a face mask for ₹ 2,495? I really don`t know. I mean, I completely agree that they might work really good for skin but then my question is for how long? Will a jar suffice to change my facial skin totally? Will I get a rejuvenated, hydrated, moisturized, and clean face after finishing up a jar?

Another notable point is these masks works best through multi-masking. To the extent, I know each part of your face is different so each part needs specific treatment. As for my combination skin, I need Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Glow Mask for my T-zone and the British Rose Fresh Plumping Mask for my cheeks. That means I need to spend ₹ 3990 for my skin. Again, Chinese Ginseng and Rice Clarifying Polishing Mask is suitable for oily skin and can be used as a skin protector mask for soothing, toning, revitalizing together with to reduce the dullness and even the skin tone. To that I can only say a big “Sorry”. I don’t have enough money for these multi-masking mask to spend out-of-my-pocket.

When it comes to face masks, I completely rely on my kitchen ingredients and they never disappointed me. They are 100% natural, 100% vegetarian and vegan too. My mask has done a good job for my skin till date. One can find various natural masks that works wonders if applied properly according to skin type. I am aware of the fact that; some dermatologists oppose the idea of applying different products from your kitchen from time to time. However, I believe if you follow one particular mix of ingredients as a mask that suits your skin, that will may not do massive harm to your skin.

I am by no means disagreeing with the fact that, The Body Shop products are genuinely good and I completely adore them (the ones I have used). However, the price factor for these masks really put me to think is it feasible to get these masks? I just wish someone ever gift me at least one of them.

Lastly, do tell me if you are purchasing them and how do they work on your skin?  Who knows someday I may be rich (in terms of money, only) enough to get my hands on them😀.
