The Body Exfoliator | Physical + Chemical

"Physical plus chemical exfoliation in the shower. Bumpy arms, consider yourself warned."
Our take

$35 Price at Necessaire, checked Oct 2026.

The short answer

The Body Exfoliator is an in-shower body wash that combines volcanic pumice with AHA, BHA and PHA for smoother-looking skin. It's worth it if you deal with rough patches, bumpy texture or ingrown hairs. Sensitive skin should start slow.

Our Take

Why it made the edit.

Why we love it: It does two kinds of exfoliation in one step without feeling stripping. The eucalyptus scent makes it feel like a spa shower.
Skip it if: Your skin is very sensitive or reactive to acids.
The catch: Acids mean you should cover exfoliated areas with sunscreen before sun exposure. It's not for daily use, so a tube takes a while but costs $35.
