Nécessaire Body Exfoliator Santal – In-Shower AHA/BHA/PHA Scrub, Volcanic Pumice 180 ml for Smooth, Resurfaced Skin

Nécessaire The Body Exfoliator Santal is an in-shower dual-action body cleanser that combines volcanic pumice with AHA, BHA and PHA to resurface rough skin and visibly smooth texture.

This in-shower formula pairs gentle physical grit with a trio of chemical exfoliants to address keratosis pilaris, ingrown hairs and rough patches while leaving skin feeling cleansed—not stripped. Designed to be used as part of a regular bathing routine, it rinses clean and is formulated without sulfates, silicones, parabens, phthalates or PEGs. Light aromatic top notes of eucalyptus, fir, lavender and ginger provide a subtle scent experience labeled Santal.

How does this product exfoliate without over-drying?

The exfoliator balances volcanic pumice for tactile smoothing with AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids), BHA (beta hydroxy acid) and PHAs (polyhydroxy acids) to loosen dead skin and clear pore build-up. Its non-stripping base and dermatologist-tested formulation aim to help texture without removing essential moisture.

• Volcanic pumice provides controlled mechanical abrasion for rough spots.
• AHA/BHA/PHA combination supports surface cell turnover and gentle chemical exfoliation.
• Non-stripping surfactant system avoids excessive drying during rinse-off.

When and how should I integrate it into my shower routine?

Use the exfoliator a few times weekly, depending on skin tolerance and texture goals. Apply to wet skin, massage in circular motions on rough areas for 30–60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly; follow with a body moisturizer to lock in hydration.

• Apply to damp skin; avoid broken or highly irritated areas.
• Limit frequency if you experience sensitivity—start 1–2× per week.
• Finish with a hydrator to maintain smoothness and comfort.

Is this safe for sensitive or acne-prone body skin?

The formula is dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, designed to minimize irritation for many users. Because it combines physical and chemical exfoliation, those with reactive skin should patch-test and reduce frequency if redness or discomfort occurs.

• Hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic labeling supports gentler use.
• Fragrance is present as a fine blend; consult patch testing if sensitive.
• Suitable for body areas with rough texture, not intended for damaged skin.
