Nécessaire The Body Wash Santal — 500ml sandalwood multi-oil shower gel, non-comedogenic & hypoallergenic

This body wash is designed as everyday skincare for the body: a milky, multi-oil shower gel formulated to cleanse without stripping, enriched with a micro-dose of minerals and niacinamide to help maintain skin comfort. The scent profile blends sandalwood with subtle spicy and floral accents, creating a refined, woodsy aroma. The formula prioritizes gentle plant-derived surfactants, avoids common irritating additives, and is labeled non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic after dermatologist testing.

How does this body wash clean without drying my skin?

The formula uses mild, plant-based cleansing agents and a mix of skin-supporting ingredients that remove dirt and oil without the harsh stripping typical of conventional washes. Glycerin and lightweight oils help maintain hydration, while the mineral blend provides a restorative touch.

• Gentle plant-derived surfactants replace aggressive sulfates
• Glycerin and multi-oils help preserve moisture during cleansing
• Micro-dose minerals assist barrier function without heavy residues

What key ingredients are in the Santal scent and why do they matter?

Santal pairs woody sandalwood with peppery and floral layers for a balanced, modern fragrance that feels warm rather than overpowering. The aromatic construction is designed to linger softly on the skin after rinsing.

• Sandalwood provides the warm, woodsy base note
• Black pepper adds a subtle spicy lift
• Iris and jasmine contribute gentle floral nuances

Is this safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The wash is formulated to be hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, and it has been dermatologist-tested for broad skin compatibility. It avoids common irritants and uses ingredients aimed at minimizing pore-clogging and sensitivity reactions.

• Made without SLS/SLES, parabens, phthalates, PEGs
• Niacinamide included for skin-friendly support
• Vegan formulation with dermatologist testing for tolerance

How should I use this to get the best results?

Dispense a small amount onto a washcloth, sponge, or your hands, work into a creamy lather, then rinse thoroughly. For an optimized routine, use daily as your body’s cleansing step and follow with your preferred body moisturizer while skin is slightly damp.

• Use a pea-to-dime amount for targeted areas; more for full-body lather
• Rinse fully and pat skin dry to retain moisture
• Pair with a body lotion to lock in hydration after showering
