USAGE

What are the skin benefits of vitamins and minerals for the hands?

Magnesium, Zinc and Silica help to calm and condition the skin while supporting the skin’s natural balance. Panthenol and Niacinamide help to moisturize, hydrate, improve barrier functionality, and help maintain the skin’s moisture level.

Answer

Why Is pH Level Mentioned On The Package?

During the formulation process we optimize the pH of the formula. We believe it directly impacts the safety and efficacy of the formula. The pH objective will vary based on product purpose. On the secondary packaging (carton) we provide a pH range. The reason pH range is indicated is that pH may vary during the manufacturing process and/or slightly change over time. Formulas that do not contain enough water will not have a pH listed.

Answer

Is This Product Certified Eczema-Safe?

No. This product does not hold The Seal of Approval by the National Eczema Association.

Answer

Can I Use The Product If I Am Pregnant?

We formulate without ingredients on the EU's prohibited substances list (Regulation No.1223/2009, Annex II). This formula is Dermatologist-Tested and Hypoallergenic. If you have any specific concerns, we recommend consulting your doctor prior to use.

Answer

Is This Product Certified Gluten-Free, Soy-Free And Nut-Free?

This product is not certified gluten-free, soy-free or nut-free. This product is manufactured in a facility where gluten, soy and nuts may be used. If you have an allergy to gluten, soy or nuts, we recommend that you do not use this product. If you still wish to try, please consider a patch test.

    Perfect hand lotion to use daily!

    Of all the Necessaire products I've used so far, this has to be my absolute favorite. The texture and scent of it is so nice, and a pea-sized amount keeps your hands from feeling dry for hours. Pairs very nicely with the hand wash as well. As someone who works with their hands, this is the perfect lotion to keep your skin feeling good without a greasy residue or cloying scent.

    Best-smelling hand wash ever!

    This soap smells divine, and pairs really nicely with the hand lotion. I also love that you get so much product at once! Overall, it feels like a high-end luxury item without the expected exorbitant price tag. I would definitely use it again!

    Great for dry hands!

    I have really dry hands cause I’m constantly washing my hands or using hand sanitizer at work, this hand lotion left my hands feeling soft after a day. The vitamins and minerals really help soothe my dryness. Definitely recommend!
