I recently got invited to the launch of The Body Shop's new festive range 'Enchanted By Nature', so I took the opportunity to sit down for a chat with Iftekhar Siddique, Retail Manager for the UAE, to talk about the products, the social responsibility of the brand and it's plans for the future.

The Body Shop has a long history, with founder Anita Roddick opening the first store in 1976 in the UK.

The brand is well known for being cruelty free, committed to fair trade and having a social conscience.
