I used to be allergic to all soaps! Finally tracked it down to an
allergy to coconut oil. There are many ingredients in soaps that are
derived from Coconut Oil including Lauryl and Laureth Sulfate,
Cocoimydal Propyl Betain and other "Coco-" prefaced compounds. 

Also am allergic to Quaternium, another name for Formadldehyde. And
Non-oxynol, aka Benzalkonium chloride.

You have to know all the names and derivatives of what you are
allergic
to. It's a real tangled web, intended to confuse the consumer.

I did overcome my allergy to coconut oil and can now use most
unscented
pure soaps. I do use Dr Bronner's Peppermint, it does not bother me
now
but in years past I could not use any of his castile soaps.

Interestingly, in the USA "unscented" products are required to have
scent in them.  At least that is what I was told by the Dial soap
customer representative when I called them to complain about the strong
perfume scent of the Dial Unscented soap I had bought.  She said that
only "Scent Free" means no added perfume...
