The shop always smells great and you can get an amazing selection of soaps, skincare, shampoos and bath stuff. It maybe isn't as good as the legendary Lush, of which there is quite a big one in Belfast but the Body Shop is still pretty good. The staff in here are all young girls, which is good and bad, they can be friendly but they can also be a little bit aloof as well. Its based in the Bloomfield Shopping Centre which means it has excellent parking near by, access to plenty of ATMs, is easy to get to and there are plenty of other shops around which makes this wee shop really convenient to pop into.

This Body Shop has been in the same location in Bloomfields Shopping centre since its conception…read more It is one of the only ever present retail outlets in Bloomfields that has stood the test of time, this says a lot for the place. In a competitive shopping centre it has fought off many rivals. To be honest I do not really like The Body Shop, its super ethical and over priced if you ask me. All there products are amazing but as I previously mentioned they seem change the prices far too often. This Body Shop is in a great location and is always a decent bet if you are looking for a present for a female. It shows that you care about the planet as well as caring for them. It works on so many levels. With good parking, ATM access in Bloomfields Body Shop is thriving.

This is a girls shop. Pure and simple.

You can get all sorts here. You can pick up beauty and skincare, bleach and developer, college kits, combs and brushes, electricals, eyelashes, furniture and equipment, gift sets and vouchers, hair colour, hair extensions, hair removal, multi cultural hair, nails, pedicure, salon essentials, scissors, shampoos and conditioners, styling, tanning and all sorts of special offers. All in all a bit of a one stop shop for this kind of stuff. Just not for me.

This chemist is part of a chain of shops well known in the North Down area. This particular one has…read morea very busy pharmacy department as it is situated next door to a large General practitioners . It is well laid out and the staff are very helpful and friendly. There are always lots of good brand name products on offer at very reasonable prices and they not only sell the usual toiletries and make up but they also have a wide choice of cleaning products . I was able to walk into the store and avail of the passport photographic service which took less than ten minutes before I was walking out with the beautiful mug shots in my hand and I still had change out of a fiver. I have been to this chemist on lots of occasions and I have always come out with something that I have found to be a lot cheaper than other stores especially in their perfume department.

At first I was a bit dubious not knowing what to expect but was very pleasantly surprised to discover it looks like any other high end salon without the high end prices! I had a refocus facial and gel polish. My skin feels amazing and at such competitive prices I'll definitely be back. Kathryn the owner is really lovely and friendly and made me feel very relaxed, this means a lot when you're spending up to 2 hours one to one with someone. I like to chat and thankfully so does she:) Visit with confidence, you will find them on Facebook if you want prices and photos.

They were set up in 2005 and now have over 20 branches in Northern Ireland. This would lead me to believe that they know what they're doing and can be trusted to deliver you an efficent, friendly and discreet service. The offer a number of services from a stop smoking programme to help with Minor Ailments. This particular branch is one of the smaller ones and therefor doesn't hold the cosmetics and fragrances range that the larger branches do. It is a little bit out of the way for me personally but it is right near a main road and offers a handy alternative to either heading into town or down the road to Ballyholme. All in all a pretty solid wee pharmacy.
