Trader Joe's Shimmering Candy Cane Body Butter

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Trader Joe's Shimmering Candy Cane Body Butter scores 32/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Trader Joe's Shimmering Candy Cane Body Butter lists 10 ingredients, starting with Aqua, Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter, Cocos Nucifera Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter and Cetearyl Alcohol. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 32/100 Trader Joe's Shimmering Candy Cane Body Butter scores worse than most body lotion we have scored. A higher-scoring option in body lotion is Honey Girl Organics The Lotion Extra Sensitive at 100/100.
