Because they’re (Unilever) still in Russia. One that has the moisturizing effect like Dove. Normal ones don’t work well with my skin.

*In Canada, but any major brands should be around.

    I hate that this is true, but if someone has chosen to switch and they can afford to do so, than they should. They just shouldn’t think that that’s where their power starts and ends. Real change doesn’t come from our wallets.

      “Real change doesn’t come from our wallets.”

          He’s accusing you of being a bot or fraudster for your opinion. It’s really basic projection from people on the internet. God forbid you don’t want to bend over backwards 18 different ways to do something they deem ethical. I don’t have the time, the energy, and the funds to really carefully pick and choose what I eat, drink, wear, watch, clean with, or browse the internet with. The hypocrisy is delicious, when you consider these people are commenting off a smartphone or computer built in Asia for pennies on the dollar by really poor people.

      I agree, if they have the means to switch and can find a suitable replacement, they should. The point I was getting at is that if OP decides to search and dig and research, if they’re able to find a company they agree with, only to get skin they’re not comfortable with, seems like an unfortunate waste of time and effort and money.

      At this point, though, it’s more of a thought experiment of ethical consumption under capitalism. There’s too many ‘if’ statements to realistically defend or justify every line of thought in this discussion. I wish OP the best of luck in finding a new soap.
