A Targeted Solution for Smooth, Firm Skin
If you are looking to take your body care as seriously as your facial skincare, the Nécessaire The Body Retinol is a standout. It’s a sophisticated treatment that goes beyond basic moisturizing to actually improve skin texture and tone. Since it contains both Retinol and AHA, start by using it 2 to 3 times a week at night and gradually increase frequency. Because of the AHA, your skin will be more sun sensitive. Be sure to apply SPF to any exposed areas the following day! This is a high performance treatment that delivers on its promise to firm and smooth. It’s an investment piece for your bathroom vanity that actually shows results on stubborn areas like the chest, knees, and arms.

Amazing Retinol Body Lotion!
This body retinol is wonderful! Second order and I will keep ordering. Lotion goes on smoothly and leaves no sticky after-feeling. I’m using this 3 times a week on my legs for crepiness and after using for about 3 months I can really notice a difference in skin quality, so much softer! I’ve started using it on my crepey arms and hands and can’t wait to see how it does. It’s helping to turn over skin and promote collagen growth so it’s a slow process, just like retinol for your face. There’s added moisturizers, peptides, and AHA’s for exfoliation. It is a retinol product so there can be irritation if used too frequently. Repairing your skin is a slow process, give it time and it will work!

BUY THIS PRODUCT! IT WORKS!
I don't usually write reviews but this one had to be written! I've tried hundreds of lotions and potions that were supposed to smooth the chest/neck area issues we get as we age. Nothing worked. BUT. This product is amazing! I'm a real person who really bought it and after one application I saw a tremendous improvement in my skin smoothness. And, it lasts! I bought it's sister product, too, and I use one in the morning and one at bedtime. I'm telling you. Get these products and see for yourself. I'm truly amazed and pleased with the results.

Feels nice, scent is mild, dries quickly. Big bottle but doesn't seem like a lot in there.
I like it so far! Have only used it a couple times but it feels nice, not sticky or tacky like so many other products designed for crepey skin. Goes on easily and dries quickly. Scent is mild and pleasant. Prescription tretinoin is amazing so I am hoping this will work some magic. May end up adding a lil tret if I don;t see big results, tho I know it will take time. The only non-positive so far is the bottle is pretty darn big but very light, so and you do need to use a fair bit so dunno how long it will last. Might end up pretty expensive, but hope I am wrong!

Definitely worth it!
I absolutely love this serum. I have used plenty of different serums on my face, but never on my body. I have just used different body oils and lotions, but this have given my arms and legs new life. My skin is so soft. I put this on and let it dry and then I put my body lotion on and my skin just feels so much healthier, glowing and moisturized. I can really feel the difference if I have to rush through a shower and do not have time to apply this or my lotion as my skin just does not feel the same. It is a tad expensive for the amount of serum you actually get, but since it is one thing that really makes me feel better about myself (which there isn't much right now that does as I am going through a lot) then it is worth it. Definitely give it a try!

Need better packaging....
The product seems good but the packaging is faulty. I can not get the cap back on the top.

So far, so great
Update: I liked this product and it was easy to rub in. I do think it helped my skin, as I said in my initial review. If I put it everywhere that needs it, though, one bottle doesn't last a month. Thats a bit too rich for my diet, iykwim. Initial review: Wow, ok, was NOT expecting this to do much, but I am very pleased with how well it's working for me. I have sensitive, dry, stupid, menopausal skin with a number of contact allergies. Oh! And psoriasis! And the worst, most refractory case of KP I've ever seen on Reddit! 🤷♀️ I have been using a layer of body serum and then applying another layer of my usual CeraVe SA. My skin is softer and feels better (to live in it, I mean...though it feels better to the touch, too). No weird residue on my skin after application, either--it's very light and it absorbs quickly. There is no added fragrance, which I appreciate. In fact, I really can't smell anything at all. I don't know if it will eventually help with the KP, psoriasis, etc but it's helped a lot with dryness already. And no skin reactions! I'm really happy. It's an expensive product for me, especially considering that if I used it daily I'd probably run out in less than a month. But it might be worth it. I'll update if anything changes.

Give it a go!
I have purchased this lotion 3 times already. I didn’t really do a before and after, however, I can say that it does leave my skin very soft and feeling hydrated but not too oily either. I use it even on my neck (which is very thin and sensitive) sometimes and I haven’t had and irritation or pimples. It is a bit pricey but I think it is definitely worth it because it’s skincare and you definitely don’t want to go cheap on that. It has a very nice soft scent to it, which I barely even notice honestly. It will not fix crepey skin or stretch marks. You’re better off using pure trentonin (retinol). I recommend giving it a go if you’re undecided. It also contains very clean ingredients, which may be of importance to some.
