Waste-Reducing Shower Gels

The Body Shop's Cool Cucumber Shower Gel Uses Wonky Cucumber Juice

The Body Shop's Special Edition Cool Cucumber Shower Gel boasts a fresh scent and a unique formula that's made with "juice from wonky cucumbers." The shower gel promises to create an instant lather, leaving skin feeling cleansed and refreshed thanks to cucumber fruit extract and organic sugar.

The instantly cooling and skin-soothing product boasts vibrant, special edition packaging that underlines the fact that it's made with "second-grade cucumber juice from Italy."

Helping to save food and ingredients that would otherwise go to waste, upcycled skincare products share a simple way for consumers to swap one product in their regular self-care routine with a more mindfully made alternative. The Cool Cucumber collection also includes a hydrating cucumber body yoghurt and a hand cream that also help to reuse wonky pieces of produce.
