    Dove is from Unilever which is British.
    Head and Shoulders and Pantene are Procter & Gamble Which is from USA.
    Pantene was originally from Switzerland. So I wasn’t aware it’s American now. Since 1985. 🫣

        Yeah, Unilever is quite some British people’s national prides. It started as a Dutch/British joint company, and it’s still quite some Dutch people’s national pride.

        I don’t think they’re that good a company to feel nationalism for but there are worse companies (Nestlé for one)

    Shower gel: Original Source. We love the mint one in our household and have loved it for at least ten years. The brand is British and vegan too, for those who care. They have a lot of fun and wacky variants, but the mint one is still the best one.

    For hair I will probably return to Elvital (L’Oreal Paris) when my last Herbal Essence bottle is empty.

    As for face creams and other stuff like that, I use Neutral which is a Danish brand that is known for their neutral products that are suitable for people with allergies or people like me who would like to put less toxic shit on our skin.

    I love the own brands form Rossmann (German but starting to expand) and for shampoo specifically have mostly switched to solid bars. Gels only for travel 😉

    Whichever one has no warnings in ToxFox¹. I am partial to Schwarzkopf’s Nature Box line but I’m the end I’m not picky as long as there’s no nasty shit in there.

    ¹Explanation for non-Germans: ToxFox is a mobile app released by German eco-NGO BUND. It lets you scan a cosmetic product’s barcode to look it up in an ingredients database. It will show warnings if the product contains stuff like microplastics or ingredients that aren’t entirely harmless.
