Two Ways to Win The Body Shop Sweet Lemon Aid

by 233 Comments

  • UPDATE: Mar. 19, 2010. The giveaway is now closed. Congrats, Tahnee! 🙂

I actually love it when companies combine good business with efforts to support a worthy cause, so I was thrilled when The Body Shop asked if they could sponsor today’s giveaway. It features their new Sweet Lemon collection of body products and a great campaign called LemonAid.

Not only do the products in this refreshingly lemony five-piece collection help you scrub down, cleanse and moisturizer yer bad self, but they help raise funds and awareness to stop the human trafficking of women and children around the world.

The Body Shop has pledged to donate up to $10,000 to ECPAT/USA (End Child Prostitution and Trafficking) and the Somaly Mam Foundation, two organizations at the forefront of the cause.

At this very instant, there are multiple ways you can help. 🙂 Do ANY of the following, and The Body Shop will donate the amount listed on your behalf:

Pretty cool, yah?

And now for the giveaway!

The prize

One lucky lady will win the entire Sweet Lemon Bath & Body collection (a $77 value) of cleansers, exfoliators and moisturizers enriched with lemon seed oil (handpicked on the Italian Riviera!).

  • Sweet Lemon Body Butter ($20): A thick, rich body butter for your driest body parts
  • Sweet Lemon Whip Body Lotion ($16): A light moisturizer (looks perfect for hot summer days!)
  • Sweet Lemon Shower Gel ($13): A sudsy shower gel
  • Sweet Lemon Body Scrub ($20): Enriched with lemon peel and organic sugar
  • Sweet Lemon Lip Butter ($8): An intensive, rich lip balm for a kissably soft pucker

  17. aw I would love to win it and if not I have to know when it will be available here in Germany. haven’t seen it the last time I visited my local Body Shop (which was really not long ago) so maybe winning would be even better since it is not available here yet 😀

  26. I’m getting a haircut this week and I can’t decide if I should stay safe and keep it long or go for a change and chop it all off!

  28. I love your site. It’s really opened me up to experimenting with new makeup stuff. And though I’m not much of a cat person, Tabs is cute.

  29. When I first opened my browser to MBB, I read “Lemon Aid” & thought of Benefit but then I read “The Body Shop” & “Sweet Lemon Aid”. My brain farted for a whole 20 seconds because I couldn’t decipher two whole different subjects!
    I’m glad The Body Shop has decided to do this. I went to my nearest TBS this Saturday for the 50% in which you buy a bag for $5 & $2 of the profit goes to ECPAT (I think..) & everything you you can fit in the bag is 50%! I just wish stores would do this more often. Not the 50% off bit but just donating 5 cents from each bag bought or something.

  30. Today I am wearing MAC’s Bough Grey on my eyelids, along with Sephora’s Nano liner in Khaki. Also, I am wearing YSL Rouge Volupte in some nameless pink color. I wish YSL would print the names on the lipstick case, rather than just the number.

  33. Ooo…I love lemons! When we moved into our house here, there was a little lemon tree in the backyard. It’s still here, but it’s in a spot that doesn’t get much sunshine. This year, we only have 6 lemons. Last year, there were 10. That’s about all the lemons we get off that tree, hee hee…

    One day, we’ll have to figure out how to move it so it can grow and make more lemons! Then I can use them in my kitchen…!

  36. Why do I always have Stevie B’s Spring Love song singing in my head?

    I remember when we first started
    You came to me and you were broken hearted
    I took you in and wiped all your tears away
    I gave you loving more than any other gave
    Don’t you know I’m the one and I love you girl
    I don’t care what they say you know you are my world
    Come back home to the one
    Who loves you more and more
    Soon you’ll see that it was me you were searchin’ for

  142. My four year old told me she thought I was so much prettier than her and that I smelled good. After assuring her that she was sooooooooooooooo much more beautiful than me, I gave her a big hug and kiss and had the most unbelievable sense of gratitude that she was in my life making me a better person. I love organizations that benefit children. I would support anything that stands up for the rights and hopes of our next generation.

  144. I love products that smell delicious! I am in love with my Burt’s bee lemon cuticle cream and almond milk hand cream for examples.

  168. When I was about 13 or 14 I used to buy a shampoo called Lemon-Up… loved it for how clean my hair was after using it. There’s a Body Shop near me in the mall, and I’m reeeeeally tempted to go there and check out these products!

  173. I love LEMONS – when we moved I reminded my husband everyday to take the lemon tree with us. It was small enough to depot and transfer to our new home. I am just hoping our cute little lemon tree will survive it’s new cloudy, windy, Daly City environment hahaha

  178. Just wondering how I should wear a hot pink eyeshadow like Post Haste…

    And of course I’d love to win this giveaway because if the scent is what i imagine it to be (I don’t think this collection has come to Europe yet), it will be like rubbing a lemon meringue pie all over me. I’m boring, I order those everywhere I go… or lemon sorbet. It used to be creme brûlée though. I need to find a new signature dessert.

  191. great post. i absolutely adore the bath and body works body butters and lip butters. not only do they work great but they are for a good cause – stopping traffiking of women and using Community Trade stable products like shea butter and cocoa butter to help impoverished areas around the world -“… by caring for your skin, you’re also caring for others.”
