You can now order online from The Body Shop from the UK, which is old news for our US readers as they have been able to do so forever. I went into the shop yesterday and had a play with the entire new makeup collection. I have to say, I'm more impressed than I usually am with The Body Shop - the new range is better than ever, but the best part, without doubt, was the brushes.
If you rely on your fingers to apply makeup, it's really worth investing in a few brushes, even if it's just for eyeshadow and blush. The Body Shop brushes are affordable and high quality, and if you're not sure what to start with, they do a mini starter set for £12.50.
Carry on under the cut for the rest of my picks from the new collection...
From L - R:
Shimmer Cubes £14 - Strong, earthy colours that blend well and go on beautifully - perfect for autumn.
Brilliance Powder £14 - A brush loaded with a ton of shimmer, which provides a wonderful sparkle all over. Miles better than the Urban Decay Brush.
Cheek Blush £8.50 - Goes on easily to leave a barely-there natural blush.
