I'm thrilled to be teaming up with The Body Shop again to bring you a chance to win another fabulous prize: this time, a gift set of the company's newly relaunched line of coconut-scented skincare products!
The winner gets everything you see pictured: coconut body butter, coconut body scrub, coconut shower cream, and coconut shimmer lotion (set valued at over $70)!
As a general rule, I'm against things that haven't been tested on animals and don't cause redness or swelling at the site of application, but I make an exception for fancy lotion that calls itself butter and makes me smell like a piña colada.
The Body Shop's newly revamped coconut line is special for another reason as well: everything in the collection is now made with organic virgin coconut oil from the company's new Community Trade supplier in Samoa.
Samoa...otherwise known as the great (and totally gorgeous) place that boasts of this:
And is the namesake of this:
By now, you know the drill. If you want a chance to win the skincare gift set, all you have to do is leave a comment. Want a second entry? Link to this giveaway post on your blog and leave a second comment.
The contest starts NOW and ends this Friday, July 17 at midnight EST. The winner will be announced shortly thereafter.
Thanks Body Shop and, as always, good luck!

Mmm. Coconut.

After reading oyur story..I may never fly with kids again!
Ooooh pick me!
Ooh, the smell of pina colada. Beats spit up and dirty diapers! Sign me up.
YUMMMYYYY!! I love those cookies and would love to smell like one!
Yum, samoas . . .
Yummy Smells! Please sign me up.
I'm in. Don't know how many other Southern California Beach Lovers like me smell like coconut now but I love L.O.V.E. Body Shop products.
I have sort of an inappropriate love of coconut -- you could be helping me with my "love" by letting me win!
squirrelsmom*at*hotmail*dot*com
Yum! I am coo coo for coconut! Can't wait to smell the new line!
I love anything coconut! Lotions are a favorite though.
I love, love, love Body Shop. Sadly, the nearest one to me is a two day drive. Sigh. Coconut stuff would certainly help me get over the sadness of living in the boonies!
Maybe a box of Samoas could be included in the prize. There's no question it would be the best part.
mmm... coconut. I just might have the urge to lick myself if I win. :o)
courtneygarcia@mac.com
mmm this would be awesome! stephanielonas@gmail.com
That scent takes me to another world. A vacation with my husband and NO kids. Meals that are warm and I don't have to cut anyone's meat or separate my 3 cuties from killing each other. Coconut take me away!
Put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up. . . oh wait, this is lotion not a drink.
Mmmm... I would love to smear myself with some coconut scented butter.
Coconut is my favorite smell of summer! Particularly in the form of ice cream. But the body butter form sounds pretty good ...
I love the Body shop, and I love Coconut....especially Samoas..Yum!! I bet those wouldn't fly in your in-laws house :)
Oooh all things coconut are fabulous!!
Yeah! Fun contest! Thanks!
All things coconut are amazing. And, the smell of coconut makes it feel like you've just stepped off the beach.
Love coconut! Love to eat it and smell like it.
I could use this to cover up the smell of me not taking a shower until 8 at night! That's what happens when you have Triplets:)
Oooo...rubbing myself with the smell of coconut...the closest thing to a vacation that I'll have for years!
Help. I stink. I need body butter to mask by odor.

Yummy---I really need this. And thanks for all the laughs!
oops, i meant to say that i need body butter to mask MY oder. anyway, here is my second comment~ i linked this post to my blog!

Sounds wonderful. I'm in.
I love coconut! and now I definitely need some girl scout cookies!
The Body Shop products bring back memories of trips to the mall at age 12 for free lotion samples and makeovers! The only thing better than smelling like pina coladas is drinking them!
You are definitely the funniest writer mom out there. As a mother of 8 children, I should know funny. You just gotta laugh.
Coconut is my absolute favorite smell of anything! Seriously, its kinda sick how excited I get about anything coconut scented! Crossing my fingers I win!!!
Pick me! I need body butter to combat this dry UT summer

I love me a good Girl Scout cookie!!!
Coconut is my fav.. My Husband and I were married in Vegas at Treasure Island... They have that smell "island" smell in the hotel.. always reminds me of my wedding..

I'm having my third baby this week (not my third baby in a week, but my third baby in total :) ) and I can already see this aiding me in getting back to "normal" :)
I've smelled like chlorine from the pool everyday for a month. I'd love to smell like coconut!
I would LOVE some lotions that smell like pina coladas. However, since I am pregnant with my first child and hormonal as all get out, I may want to eat the stuff. Still, I'd love to try it. It may taste, er, uh, I mean help me LOOK good.
Coconut...hate to eat it, love to smell it. Thanks.

Coconut is the best smell!
I almost cried when I saw that over 250 people have already posted! I just had a coconut dum-dum, is that good luck b/c it's coconut, or bad luck b/c it makes me look dumb? My pregnant belly says count me twice I'm posting on my blog!
Love Paige

Love your blog. I started reading it a few weeks ago. Your post about the airplane fiasco was hilarious (sorry!). Unfortunatley I've had a similar situation once. So glad that I can now laugh about it.
You said Samoa...Mmmmm.
Dang, freebies sure have a way of getting people to comment! :)
My two year old poured the last of my yummy smelling lotion down the shower drain trying to make bubbles so I now have a need for new supplies.
Double the fun. I've linked your giveaway post to my blog. :)

Keep on keeping on.
I love coconut scented bath products!
I would LOVE to smell like coconut all day! It would certainly beat the scent of spit-up and #2 diapers!! LOL
Are you aware that I can't get a samoa cookie for another 9 or ten months? I think I need to win this lovely coconut luxury to take my mind off that sad fact.
Nothing better then a coconut! And of course girl scout cookies I think you have me wanting that more :) Yummy all the way around.
megan
All things Samoan are wonderful!

Oh gosh! I have a secret love affair with The Body Shop. Love it!!!
I want to smell like a pina colada. Instead of sunscreen and a sandbox...it just doesn't have that same "beachy" feeling.
I might shower more If I had all that scubbie butter stuff
Oh...I love coconut...makes me think of nice warm tropical places!
I would enter for the single samoa (cookie that is..) those things are awesome!! I will settle for smelling like one too. ;)
Bring it on - I love smelling like coconut!

Oh...now you've done it...I've come out of the woods where I've been lurking. Actually the desert is more like it and although it smells good here it's hot and I don't....here's my entry!!!
And now besides once you've made me do it twice. Gotta get that second chance so linking you onto mine!!!
I could use some of that for my 8 month pregnant body!
That lotion will make me feel better about being pregnant in the middle of the summer....
Oh "body Shop" take me away! It may just help me end the Summer still sane after 3 months of teenagers at home bickering with each other!
i want in! yay!
I like thin mints best. Oops sorry that's not what this is about...
I love coconut cupcakes!
I love there coconut butter. It is especially nice to use during pregnancy when your skin is extra dry, itchy and stretching. It makes you feel oh so nice.

I am Puerto Rican! We must have coconuts to survive!
Count me in on this great contest!
I love the smell of cocunut! I hope I win :)

All of my skin care products are dollar store gifts from my mother-in-law. I think it would be amazing to have something in a scent other than berry. I love coconut!

Will I feel less stressed if I smell like a coconut?? I'm not sure, but I'm willing to give it a try!!

Free coconut body shop products are my favorite.
The Body Shop rocks! And so does the Meanest Mom! And so do coconut lotions, soaps, and bras!

oooooo this would be perfect! After lounging around my daughters blow-up kiddie pool, and sipping on grape kool-aid,(all the while yelling that I DONT wanna be splashed) I can put kids to bed, lather myeslf in coconut, hopfully drifing into a dream where your kool-aid comes with an unbrella!
Oh, yummy!! I can almost smell the coconuttiness here at my desk at work . . .

Okay this is kind of freaky. Besides coconut being one of my fav scents, one of my earlier Facebook statuses tonight had to do with how much I wanted a piña colada fruitista from Taco Bell. Then my inlaws are currently in Am. Samoa. It would be extra freaky but in a good way if I won. Doncha think?
Yay, coconut!
me me me! I love the smell of coconut, I bought Suave coconut shampoo & conditioner for my daughter (I, of course, think I need salon products).
Mmmmmmmm.... body shop. :)
When I die, I hope heaven smells like coconuts.
Me, please! I need more extra virgin coconuts in my life.
I love that summer scent!
oo I hope I win! Pick me! Coconut is my mom's favorite scent of all time, it would make the PERFECT present. We've had several house guests over the past two weeks, with absolutely no breaks - she deserves to be pampered!
Don't pick me, I don't want to win.
I could use a little coconut in my life right about now.
Thanks for this opportunity Jana!

I LOVE coconut!!!! Mmmm I want to smell like pina colada's too. Shoot them I may have to eat myself after that! haha
Oh yes -- - a batch of luxury before I head back to the classroom at school.
I love the body shop! Please count me in :)
I love the coconut line -- in fact I'm past due to stock up. So hope I win!
The smell of Coconut must be better than the odor that usually accompanies me. Namely vomit and dirty diapers.
It's it great being a mom?
I love the scent of coconut body products!
Sounds like a super yummy giveaway! Thanks!
