LONDON, July 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Waking up feels that much better with The Body Shop's Earth Lovers Shower Gel.

Renowned for their environmentally friendly and ethically sourced skincare products, The Body Shop has added yet another gorgeously green product to their delicious skin care range.

The Body Shop has a long-standing reputation for their work campaigning for green issues, intolerance of animal cruelty and support of community fair trade, garnering awards and accolades from the RSPCA and international acclaim as a model socially responsible brand.

But this addition to their already commendably green product line sets the bar even higher.

Like all The Body Shop's products, their Earth Lovers shower gels conform to their uncompromising animal rights policies and contain no products or ingredients tested on animals. It also adheres to their community fair trade schemes, and ingredients are ethically and fairly sourced from overseas suppliers. And if that wasn't enough, the Earth Lovers shower gel is 100% biodegradable, sulphate free and contains no nasty parabens.

But what you'll be really pleased to know is that it works. And not only that, it's delicious. Available in six different scents - or unscented if you prefer - the Earth Lovers shower gel range is no less indulgent for its lack of chemical ingredients, in fact it's more so. Lathering up - and it does lather, unlike many other non-soap-based shower gels - feels even lovelier knowing that it's environmentally friendly.

The seven 'flavours' in the range contain different ingredients to suit different skin types. Watermelon & Eucalyptus is the perfect fresh, summer scent, with delicate notes of real watermelon and refreshing eucalyptus, well known for its invigorating properties. Earth Lovers Fig & Rosemary Shower Gel contains natural skin-firming super herb rosemary, which rejuvenates the skin and boosts complexion, while Cucumber & Mint contains delicious, skin-softening cucumber, and revitalising, hydrating mint.
