    I remember when I used to travel long distances just to visit the Body Shop, there were only certain malls and certain cities where you could buy their products.  I used to dream about their products, salivate about their body butter and lip glosses.

    I haven't been to Body Shop for ages and they haven't honestly been on my mind.  I think after the newer incarnations of Bath and Body Works and Lush, did BS (please excuse the acronym) kind of fade into the distance.  

    Today I was at the TD Square and I felt nostalgic so I went into the store, the salesperson was very nice but there really weren't hardly that many products.  I think of course this was due to Xmas sales and perhaps the reopening of this store due to restorations at the Eatons Centre.

    But at sale prices I wasn't impressed, I mean the selection was very limited and even at sale prices I knew in the recesses of my mind I could get twice at much at BBW and have a ton of scents to choose from.

    It just kind of left me kind of sad, but kudos for BS to be one of the first of their kind.  They still are okay but there isn't the wow or drool factor for me anymore.

    Was this review …?
