User Reviews for Body Time

Body Time was formerly called "The Body Shop," before an English company with a similar concept moved to the states and bought out the name. Purists know that stuff from the Bay Area's Body Shop--which has been around since the '70s--trumps slickly packaged mango body butter every time. Eco-friendly before it was chic, Body Time encourages patrons to refill/recycle the bottles and jars. Every time I'm in Berkeley, I throw down a small fortune to stock up on my favorite products, which include the vitamins A, D, and E body moisturizer and giant bars of rose geranium aromatherapy soap. Most products here can be custom-scented.
Pros: High quality, No-frills packaging, Great for gifts
Cons: Prices increasing
