The Body Shop is known for creating a variety of products that spotlight unique fruits and vegetables and its cleanser and moisturizer are "enriched with organic carrots too naturally wonky to sell in the supermarkets." While the vegan-friendly Carrot Wash Energizing Face Cleanser forms a rich lather to leave the skin feeling smooth and energized, the Carrot Cream Nature Rich Daily Moisturizer provides long-lasting hydration and protection from aggressors that can compromise the look and health of the skin. Both of these products are packaged in 100% recyclable packaging.
While consumers have been seeing many snack brands adopting the use of so-called "ugly" produce, body care brands are now also creatively embracing ways to nourish the body and reduce food waste.
