the Body Shop British Rose, a line to start the day fresh!

The British Rose line from the Body Shop is a product line made from roses grown especially for the Body Shop. A rose scent may sound a bit old-fashioned, but given the subtle scent that this product line has, I think everything is not that bad.

British Rose from the Body Shop

It is definitely not a heavy scent and in that regard it is very suitable for me to start the day with. I don't like to immerse myself in very heavy scents, so showering with a subtle scent takes precedence over everything else for me.

And who wouldn't want to immerse themselves in roses? Or at least in the smell of it 😉 . After all, roses are still the most loved flowers. And that is of course not for nothing. Roses radiate love and romance. When you get a bunch of roses from someone, that feels different than a bunch of mixed flowers, doesn't it?

The British Rose products in the line

Rose blossom extract is renowned for its moisturizing properties and its refreshing effect on the skin. It is therefore incorporated in all products in the British Rose line, and there are quite a few. The products range from hand care to shower gel and from body butter to beautiful gift sets. In addition, a make-up palette has been included in the range.

British Rose shower gel

I myself have tried the British Rose Shower gel that comes in a handy squeeze bottle. You only need a little bit to smell great.

Tip:If you want to let the shower gel foam well all over your body, you can also put it on a nice shower puff instead of in your palm.

British Rose gel body scrub

You have body scrub and body scrub. My preference is for a body scrub that comes in a gel form, such as this one from the Body Shop. I find that slightly easier to use and especially nicer than a 'thick paste' body scrub.

The British Rose gel body scrub foams slightly through the gel. With gentle circular movements you can scrub all the dead skin cells of your body. So mild in use that using it a few times a week is no problem, and of course with the fresh rose scent! Also super nice to give as a gift!

5 things you probably didn't know about roses

  • The story goes that Cleopatra had the floor of her palace covered with roses before Mark Antony paid her a visit. So that's where the use of scattering rose petals comes from!
  • The English have named the rose their national flower.
  • Rose petals were already used in the Middle Ages for their scent and effect. The wealthier class bathed in water with rose petals and rose oil.
  • You probably didn't know that rose oil was added to medicines to mask the bitter taste. It was only later that it was discovered that rose oil has medicinal properties and therefore also had added value.
