What it claims to do:
• Cleanses and moisturizes at the same time
• Contains a "nourishing serum" (blend of oils + provitamin B5 + vitamin E)
• Leaves skin feeling soft and lightly scented with peach and jasmine
Is it "clean" or does it contain potentially toxic/irritating ingredients?
Typical full ingredient list for this version:
Water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Chloride, Fragrance, Glycerin, Panthenol (provitamin B5), Prunus Persica (Peach) Fruit Juice, Tocopheryl Acetate (vitamin E), Glycol Distearate, Sodium Benzoate, Citric Acid, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmate, Sodium Laureth-8 Sulfate, Polyquaternium-10, Benzophenone-4, Red 33, Yellow 5, etc.
Potentially concerning ingredients for some people:
1 Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) – Very common, effective cleanser. Can be mildly irritating or drying for sensitive/dry skin, and may be contaminated with 1,4-dioxane (a carcinogen) if not properly purified. Nivea claims theirs is purified, but many "clean beauty" shoppers still avoid all ethoxylated surfactants.
2 Fragrance – Strong synthetic peach-jasmine scent. A top allergen for sensitive skin.
3 PEG compounds & ethoxylated ingredients – Same 1,4-dioxane concern as above.
4 Synthetic colors (Red 33, Yellow 5) – Unnecessary dyes, banned in some countries, potential irritants.
5 Benzophenone-4 – UV filter/sunscreen ingredient sometimes used as a fragrance stabilizer; some people avoid it due to possible hormone-disrupting concerns (though levels are tiny).
Verdict:
Perfectly safe and non-toxic for most people, but not a "clean" or low-irritation body wash by 2025 standards.
If you have sensitive, dry, eczema-prone, or fragrance-sensitive skin, this one can easily cause dryness, redness, or itching.
Much gentler / cleaner alternatives people usually switch to:
• Dove Sensitive Skin (unscented)
• Aveeno Skin Relief or Daily Moisturizing (fragrance-free versions)
• Vanicream Gentle Body Wash
• CeraVe Hydrating Body Wash
• Native, Everyone, or Puracy natural body washes (if you still want scent but fewer synthetics)
So: smells amazing and works fine for normal skin, but definitely contains several ingredients that sensitive-skin and clean-beauty communities try to avoid.
