Nécessaire Hand Wash Santal — Sandalwood Liquid Hand Soap, Daily Nourishing with Vitamins & Omega 6/9

Nécessaire The Hand Wash Santal is a daily liquid hand soap that cleanses gently while delivering vitamins, minerals and omega 6/9 in a warm sandalwood fragrance.

This sinkside hand wash blends a woodsy santal scent with a formulation designed to cleanse without stripping. It uses facial-grade ingredients meant to support the skin’s surface during routine use and is free from silicones, parabens, PEGs and phthalates. Lightweight, hypoallergenic and vegan, it’s intended to be used throughout the day in the bathroom or kitchen and coordinated with Nécessaire’s Hand Lotion for longer-lasting softness.

How does this hand wash clean without drying my skin?

The formula relies on mild surfactants and nourishing actives rather than harsh detergents, so it removes dirt and microbes while helping preserve moisture. Vitamins, minerals and omega 6/9 are included to support the skin barrier as you wash, reducing the tight, dry feel common with ordinary soaps.

• Mild cleansing agents that foam without over-stripping.
• Facial-grade vitamins and minerals to maintain skin surface health.
• Omega 6/9 to help support natural barrier lipids.
• Dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic.

What does the Santal scent smell like and when is it best to use?

Santal offers warm, wood-forward notes of sandalwood layered with black pepper, iris and jasmine for a subtly spicy floral depth. It’s suitable for daily handwashing in both kitchen and bathroom settings and works well whenever you want a more refined, fragrance-forward sink routine.

• Primary woodsy sandalwood character with spicy black pepper accents.
• Soft floral undertones from iris and jasmine for balanced fragrance.
• Appropriate for frequent use without overpowering the room.

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

Formulated without common irritants like silicones, parabens, PEGs and phthalates, the hand wash has been dermatologist-tested and labeled hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. While designed to be gentle, anyone with specific allergies should review ingredient lists and patch-test if concerned.

• Free from silicones, parabens, PEGs and phthalates.
• Hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic claims backed by dermatologist testing.
• Vegan formulation that avoids animal-derived components.

How should I integrate this hand wash into my sink routine?

Use a small pump amount to lather, rinse thoroughly, and follow with Nécessaire Hand Lotion while hands are slightly damp to lock in moisture. The two-step sinkside approach—cleanse then replenish—helps maintain softness and reduces roughness from frequent washing.

• Dispense one to two pumps depending on hand size and soil level.
• Lather for at least 20 seconds, then rinse completely with water.
• Apply matching Hand Lotion afterward for extended hydration.

Who is this for: This hand wash is suited to anyone seeking a refined, everyday cleanser that combines a warm sandalwood fragrance with nourishing, facial-grade ingredients. It appeals to those who prefer clean formulations without common synthetic additives, people with frequently washed or chapped hands, and anyone building a coordinated sinkside skin routine with moisturizer to maintain soft, resilient hands.
