Forget the prices. Think about ethically which is better for the earth to use?
I was shocked to see that people liked Bath and Body Works over the Body Shop! Even though the Body shop may be a bit pricier, you have a smaller effect on global warming, and you are helping 3rd world countries! Plus, the smells in the Body Shop are more subtle but still strong, unlike Bath and Body works which is perfumey. I have asked several guys what they think of Bath and Body works and they all hate the smells of the stuff in there!
