I'm using Vivel right now but I want to skip SLS. I thought about Dove, but I saw some comments here saying it has an ingredient that's banned in other countries. So please suggest something – I don't need any fancy additives, just a cheap SLS‑free option.

These days many new‑gen brands offer SLS‑free body washes – think Be Bodywise, Chemist at Play, Plum, etc.

You could try vegan soaps – they're pretty heavenly.

I believe the banned ingredient is in the bar soap, not the body wash. Correct me if I'm wrong – I'm using Dove body wash.

Just go with whatever works for you...

Forrest Essentials and Aveeno are also worth checking out.

Dove body wash is a solid choice, OP. It's cheap and works great for dry skin. Even the soap version is excellent for dryness. The banned ingredient was just a batch‑specific issue; the current ingredient list doesn't show it.
