Necessaire Body Wash  

I find it so odd reviewing body washes because they’re just so easy to formulate. Like how can you possibly make a bad body wash in this day and age. The Necessaire body wash is a thick gel that gently lathers and has a natural eucalyptus scent.

In terms of the level of clean-ness, this isn’t the cleanest body wash out there. For example, the Necessaire Body Wash does contain phenoxyethanol.

Ingredients: Aqua/Water/Eau, Sodium Laurylglucosides Hydroxypropylsulfonate, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, Glycerin, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate, Niacinamide, Tocopherol, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugar Cane) Extract, Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Sclerocarya Birrea Seed Oil, Caryodendron Orinocense Seed Oil, (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Caprylyl Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Citric Acid, Chlorphenesin, Sodium Phytate

Necessaire Body Lotion

The Necessaire Body Lotion is made with multivitamins for the skin and contains conditioning peptides. The lotion feels hydrating and doesn’t feel like it just sits on top of my skin. It sinks in well and is super smooth and silky. The Necessaire Body Lotion has the idea consistency of neither too thick nor too thin. Overall a pleasant body lotion and the fragrance free version is fantastic if you prefer no scent.

At first I wasn’t used to using a fragrance free lotion, but now I understand its appeal. Sometimes you don’t want to overpower your senses with super fragrant body washes and lotions that all compete with each other, and you just want simple. Just moisture.

Necessaire Body Scrub

While the Necessaire body scrub doesn’t look like much from the outside, it’s actually a treatment product loaded with skincare actives.

The Body Exfoliator is meant to be used 1-2 times a week. It’s a weekly physical and chemical exfoliation treatment for the skin with 6.5% Physical Exfoliation (Volcanic Pumice | Charcoal Bamboo), 1.25% Chemical Exfoliation (AHA | BHA | PHA) and Niacinamide infused into a gentle plant surfactant base.

The Necessaire exfoliating treatment breaks down charcoal on contact for a skin detox, while Volcanic Pumice, Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) and Gluconolactone (PHA) help to resurface skin.

The Necessaire The Body Exfoliator is meant to be used diligently not every once in a blue moon if you want to see any improvement in the texture of your body skin. I appreciate the concept of this product but I simply don’t have the discipline to use it regularly enough to see results. As far as how it feels, the Necessaire Body Exfoliator feels hydrating because it’s a thick, clear gel and there’s light exfoliation from the particles in the gel. A plus is it doesn’t get my bathtub too dirty like other scrubs.
