I have found, that since being bought by Loreal, they just don't cut the mustard anymore. They changed all the shapes of their mascara brushes to the ugly fat triangular ones that i hate and their packing changes faster than i can change my knickers! I hate it. Plus, I don't know how they can say they don't test on animals now as their profits are going to a company that funds research into animal testing! I mean I don't mind animal teating for medical things because the law says they have to but for cosmetics? That's just wrong

Anyone else agree?

I couldn't believe that The Body Shop who's logo was "Against Animal Testing" actually sold to L'Oreal who have documented video evidence showing their tests on animals. It just doesn't sit right. I don't use L'Oreal or Gilette after what I have seen and I won't be using the Body Shop anymore. I usually go there for gifts, but not this year.

Very dissapointing.

I'm pleased it's not just me who is annoyed and disappointed with them
Loreal have bought Body shop last year and nothing is going to change point of view of service or quality of product for body shop.
The body shop have always put quality first for their customers but packaging have always been appalling.
Their are trying to improve and become "prestige" but it is not working.
Loreal wants to learn more about the body shop and their trade secret and the Body shop benefit of Loreal by using their money to able to expend worldwide.
The body shop owner still plays a big role in her compagny and carry on researching her work.
Do you think that this powerful woman is full enough to have build her business to give it away? you would be full to beleive that.

I basically don't agree with what the owner did. Spending all that time building up fair trade and against anaimal testing etc etc to then sell to a company that is pro animal testing. At the end of the day. the Body shop is now feeding the giant that is Loreal.

I never questioned the customer services because the people that work in the shops I have been in are all lovely but I, for one, already feel that the quality of product is reduced just because I know a portion of my money is now going to support a company who's ethics I do not agree with in any way shape or form.
Cosmetic logo design like beauty logos as well as The Body Shop logo design can be found and reviewed at http://www.companylogos.ws/articles.html
