It produces a rich lather that makes hand washing quick and effective. Compared to standard hand washes, this one seems to prioritize hydration, leaving your hands feeling moisturized. There's noticeably less dryness after use. I got a great deal at Costco with two full-size bottles plus a refill, making it quite cost-effective.
ConsThe fragrance is overpowering. It's particularly problematic when cooking after washing your hands, as the strong scent lingers. I found out there's an unscented version available, but it's not easily spotted in stores. Given that fragrances aren't particularly beneficial for our bodies, I'm questioning whether I need a scented hand soap at all. I probably won't repurchase for this reason. Additionally, as shown in the photo, red mold tends to grow around the pump area. The design seems to allow water to collect easily, and despite wiping it down multiple times, the mold keeps reappearing. This is an issue that needs addressing.
TipWhen choosing hand soaps, it's important to consider factors beyond just cleansing effectiveness. While this product offers good value and moisturizing properties, the strong fragrance and potential for mold growth are significant drawbacks. For those with sensitive skin or who prefer unscented products, it might be worth seeking out the fragrance-free version or exploring other options. The hygiene concern with the pump design is particularly noteworthy and something the manufacturer should look into improving.

It has the same comforting cotton scent as Pure. I love that they sell refills separately - it's economical and eco-friendly. The white container is also nice as it doesn't clash with my bathroom decor.
ConsWith Pure, I never had to clean the exterior even after long-term use. However, with Premium, red mold keeps appearing around the pump area. This happened even when I switched to a new product after using refills for a while. I suspect it might be due to the design allowing water to collect. This aspect was really disappointing.
