Trader Joe's Body Butters
Trader Joe's first body butter product was the Coconut Body Butter, originally released in 2012. They describe the item as "a thick, smooth, buttery, body cream that's made with pure coconut oil and other skin soothing ingredients, including aloe vera, shea butter and vitamin E."
They also note that "it absorbs into your skin very quickly, and doesn't leave it feeling oily," and that it's "beneficial for all skin types."
The Brazil Nut Body Butter is another popular summer seasonal item, described as "thick, rich, and smelling of summer," and is made with "coconut oil, shea butter, açaí extract, guarana extract" and "bertholletia excelsa seed oil—a.k.a. Brazil nut seed oil." This combination creates an intoxicating scent of "salted caramel, pistachio, and beachy notes of coconut and vanilla."
The Body Butter Trio is only $7.99, making it an easy, low-cost gift for someone you love or even yourself. The Trader Joe's website describes all three as "up to the task of moisturizing even the driest of winter skin, and all three leave behind lovely, lingering scents."
And finally, if scents aren't your thing, Trader Joe's also makes a fragrance-free version that "moisturizes and repairs dry skin," and "prevents water loss." This option is perfect if you have other scents you prefer to wear but want to stay extra-hydrating.
