What the gurus are saying

The experts who reviewed it praise this as a standout body scrub that balances physical and chemical exfoliation without feeling harsh or damaging to skin. The volcanic pumice particles have enough texture to actually work, but aren't so sharp they cause irritation. Those sensitive to fragrance can reach for the fragrance-free version, though one expert notes the eucalyptus scent makes the experience feel spa-like if tolerated, and using it once weekly with gentle circular motions leaves skin noticeably clean and smooth.

"If you like a body scrub, the Necessaire Body Exfoliator is one of my absolute favorites. It comes in a fragrance-free version, but I actually really like the one with the eucalyptus scent, as long as you're not sensitive to fragrance because it really makes you feel like you're at the spa. It combines volcanic pumice for physical exfoliation, and it has salicylic, glycolic, and lactic acid for some chemical exfoliation as well, but it's not harsh."

"The Necessaire Body Exfoliator is actually a chemical and physical exfoliator. The physical exfoliator comes from the little scrubbing particles within the product, and it also has chemical exfoliators like lactic acid, glycolic acid, and salicylic acid. It comes in a fragrance free version but there are also three fragranced versions as well, and this is actually one of the cases where I prefer a fragranced product. I really like the eucalyptus scented one because it makes me feel like I'm in a spa. This is definitely my most used body exfoliator and I use it probably once a week in the shower with small circular motions. I do like how clean and smooth my skin feels after using this. I feel like this one really hits the sweet spot where the exfoliating particles aren't too small so they actually have a little bit of grit and they're doing something, but they're not so big and gritty and sharp that I feel like they're causing trauma to my skin."

"A body peel that both viewers and I loved was by Necessaire. Their body peel does a beautiful job of exfoliating, leaving the skin soft and smooth."

"I love this because besides having a physical exfoliant to it, it's a very gentle scrub. There's a very gentle physical exfoliation to it, but what I really love is that it has AHAs and BHAs in it. It has glycolic acid, it has salicylic acid, and it has lactic acid in it. I think this is just one of their best products and it's one of the best body exfoliators I have ever used. So I almost always have this in my shower."
