Bio-based vs. Traditional Hand Soaps

I have done some experimenting with bio-based hand soaps, shampoo and body wash lately, because I have found out that I have a slight allergic reaction to some of the compounds present in traditional soap.  I want to update you on my findings...

Soap and Company Name	Bio-based vs. Traditional	Cost/fl oz	Leaves Soap Film on Skin?	Fragrance
Bath & Body Works anti-bacterial gentle foaming hand soap	Traditional	$0.57	No	Variety of fragrances to choose from
Dial Complete Foaming anti-bacterial hand wash	Traditional	$0.51	No	Variety of fragrances to choose from
Green Klean Anti-bacterial foaming hand wash	Bio-based	$0.75	Yes	Comes in only one fragrance and smells like skunk
Eco Suds Foaming anti-bacterial hand soap	Bio-based	$1.35	Yes	Comes in only one fragrance and smells like pine trees

I've decided that I am going to stick to the traditional soap for now.  My allergic reaction isn't severe enough for me to wash my hands with a bio-based product and feel as though the soap hasn't been completely rinsed off (even after rinsing for a full minute).  I am also not a fan of walking around smelling like skunk or pine trees after using these soaps.  To me, these are NOT clean smelling fragrances.  I am hopeful that improvements will be made in the bio-based cleansing products industry over time and I will one day soon have more options to choose from that have more appealing fragrances!!
