It is inspired by the use of green tea in bathing to detoxify the skin, something that Japanese women have been doing for generations.
But did you know that some Japanese women apply it to their skin and bathe in it? It’s a skincare secret that’s been part of beauty regimes for generations, believed to help retain moisture and tighten pores.
We’ve taken this knowledge a step further, creating Fuji Green Tea™ range, the first body range infused with real green tea leaves and their benefits. We’ve been picky though, quite literally. Our green tea comes from the heartland of Japan, the pristine Mount Fuji region. Here, our experts hand-pick the finest shoots to capture the potent antioxidant power. We infuse this in to our range to replenish and refresh with pure moisture for healthier-feeling skin." (Source - The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea range press release)

The Fuji Green Tea Bath Tea (500g/£12) is designed to be used with the Fuji Green Tea Bath Infuser (£5 - sold separately) to create a cleansing and detoxifying bathtime experience.
It is described by The Body Shop as being the "perfect to soak away the
stresses of the day while

| Fuji Green Tea Eau de Cologne |
For extra post-bath/shower freshness, The Body Shop have created a Fuji Green Tea Eau de Cologne
(100ml/£16). "Refreshingly light and crisp, it’s a classic scent for daytime sophistication."
It is described as being a "citrus-fresh" scent that includes top notes of green tea, mandarin, lemon and bergamot and a floral heart of violet, jasmine and camelia.
As well as the individual products, there will also be a range of gifts at different price levels for those special occasions!
The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea range will be available in the UK from April 7th 2015 at The Body Shop.
