Nécessaire The Body Cream | Fragrance-Free Barrier Complex
Treat Your Body Like Your Face® — Nécessaire's philosophy in a jar. The Body Cream is a rich, dermatologist-tested body moisturizer, formulated for dry, sensitive, and eczema-prone skin. The 200 ml size allows for long-lasting use, and the formula combines moisturizing and nourishing functions in one step.
Barrier Complex
At the heart of the formula is a clinically inspired set of skin-identical active ingredients that support its functions:
• Niacinamide 5% — brightens, soothes, and helps strengthen the epidermal barrier
• Ceramides (Ceramide AG, Ceramide AP, Ceramide EOP, Ceramide NG, Ceramide NP) — a full spectrum of five ceramide types that replenish and rebuild the skin's natural lipid barrier
• Hyaluronic Acid — attracts moisture to the skin, providing deep and long-lasting hydration and a plumping effect
• Omega-6 and Omega-9 — essential fatty acids that nourish and strengthen the skin's protective barrier
• Centella Asiatica Extract — soothes inflammation and supports skin regeneration
The active ingredients are enriched with a luxurious base of Shea Butter and Colloidal Oatmeal — ingredients known for their soothing and emollient properties, which soften and protect the skin's surface.
Formula Attributes
The Body Cream is free of silicones, phthalates, parabens, and PEGs. The formula is:
• Fragrance-free — ideal for sensitive and reactive skin
• pH optimized (pH 5.0–6.0) — supports the skin's natural acid mantle
• Dermatologist-tested
• Hypoallergenic
• Non-comedogenic
• Certified vegan and cruelty-free
• EU compliant
National Eczema Association Certification
The Body Cream holds the Seal of Approval from the National Eczema Association — an accolade obtained after passing a rigorous safety testing protocol. It is a trustworthy product for individuals struggling with eczema or particularly reactive skin.
Texture and Application
The cream absorbs excellently, leaving no greasy or sticky residue, making it ideal for daily use. Only a small amount is needed. Apply after showering or bathing while the skin is still slightly damp — this helps the formula more effectively lock in moisture. It is suitable for dry, sensitive, eczema-prone skin, as well as for anyone seeking a body product based on scientifically proven active ingredients.
