This Saturday, 22 March, The Body Shop is excited to participate in Earth Hour, a global movement encouraging individuals, businesses, and communities to switch off their lights for one hour at 8:30 PM local time to raise awareness about climate change and sustainability.

Since its inception in 2007, Earth Hour has been a powerful reminder that small actions can lead to big change—and this is something The Body Shop is deeply passionate about.

As a brand committed to sustainability, we continuously strive to reduce our environmental footprint. Our Workshop stores are thoughtfully designed with upcycled and reclaimed materials, including wood and plastic that would otherwise have ended up in landfills. Even our lightweight aluminium façades are designed to minimize waste and environmental impact. This commitment to conscious changemaking extends to our refill stations, empowering customers to reduce single- use plastics and embrace a more sustainable beauty routine.

In addition to our eco-conscious stores, all Body Shop products are 100% vegan- certified, featuring naturally efficacious formulas that harness the power of nature to deliver high-performance skincare and body care. Through our Community Fair Trade partnerships, we ensure that the ingredients we use are ethically sourced, supporting communities globally while protecting the planet.
