The Body Shop is a company which has played a pioneering role in the field of Social Responsibility since it was founded in March 1976. Over the years, it has created products, campaigns and policies that have served as an example for other companies.

It was founded by Anita Roddick, a human rights activist, who started the business to maintain her family while her husband was away travelling. The philosophy of the business was simple: its cosmetics avoided animal testing and were made with natural products.

The company currently has more than 3,000 stores in 66 countries, and it has become a truly global brand whose actions continue to be inspired by its Values: Against Animal Testing; Fair Trade with Communities; Activate Self-esteem, Defend Human Rights and Protect the Planet.

The Body Shop offers more than 1,200 naturally inspired, high-quality beauty, haircare and make-up products, made with a commitment to ethical and sustainable practices. They range from the iconic Body Butters and innovative 100% vegetarian face masks to an extensive variety of gifts.

These can be found in the Barcelona Shopping Line retail hub, at carrer Provença 245, Portaferrissa 11 or in the Illa Diagonal Shopping Centre, local 3.
