The Body Shop’s story started in 1976. It began with its founder, Anita Roddick, and a belief in something revolutionary: that business could be a force for good. The Body Shop has never been an average cosmetics company, with over 45 years of campaigning, change-making and smashing beauty industry standards. Known for offering high-quality, naturally-inspired skincare, body care, hair care and make-up produced ethically and sustainably, The Body shop is a pioneer in fair trade, supporting local communities and driving real change for the planet and its people.
