Early verdict · Few reviews so farWhat the gurus are saying
The texture earns real praise for being luxuriously creamy and hydrating while still creating a light lather, which is rare in a moisturizing wash. However, experts split on the preservative blend: one dermatologist flags that the formula contains tholinones, a preservative group known to trigger allergies in some people, and prefers gentler alternatives like Dove for that reason. The scent varies by variety, the rose and cherry option has tested slightly medicinal to some noses, so sampling other fragrances in the range may help if you're sensitive to florals.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.
Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.
