System Verdict
Adequate daily scrub that cleanses mildly but physical exfoliation risks micro-tears and soy extract delivers no proven brightening in rinse-off format. Efficacy score of 3.4 reflects gentle amino-acid-like surfactants (Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Decyl Glucoside, Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate in top positions) that avoid barrier stripping, plus humectants like Glycerin for rinse-time comfort, but docked for Parfum irritation potential, physical Cellulose beads over chemical exfoliants, and trace Glycine Soja Protein (position 18) unlikely above 0.1% for efficacy; no contact actives like salicylic acid present.
