What Nécessaire sells
Prices from necessaire.com; the store's price at checkout is the one that counts. Photos: Nécessaire.
Is Nécessaire legit?
Short answer: yes, Nécessaire is a real store, and our score is 3.8 out of 5. The main caveat: reports of unanswered emails.
It sells body wash, lotion, serum, oil, deodorant, hand and hair care through its own website, necessaire.com. Independent reviews are still scarce, so judge it mainly on its policies. Returns: Returns within 30 days of purchase, free within the US; original shipping isn't refunded.
Our take: legitimate, but read the downsides below before you buy.
Quality
Nécessaire has only four Trustpilot reviews. One reviewer says the body lotion helped dry skin; the rest are about service.
Price and value
Products cost about $15 to $52, and sets less, such as one at $70 instead of $80. Subscribing saves 15%, and referring a friend gives each of you $10.
Shipping and returns
Standard shipping is free over $75, otherwise $8. Returns within 30 days of purchase are free in the US, but original shipping isn't refunded.
Customer service
The profile is unclaimed. Reviewers describe unanswered emails about cancellations and returns, so cancel subscriptions in writing.
