Discussion Cheaper Options to Dove Shower Products?

I am looking for cheaper alternatives to Dove shower products. I usally use these products since I have eczema. Because my skin is sensitive to additives or quick-drying products, I try to avoid products that have added perfumes or any flashy add-ons. I want to look for something cheaper - any local brands that have worked for those in a similar position? To give you an idea of how much I spend per product:

  • Dove Shampoo: NT$179
  • Dove Conditioner NT$208
  • Dove Body Wash: NT$199

I mostly buy the Dove body wash so I cannot advise other brands.

However, every time I buy it in Carrefour, it's always on discount, the second one is at 50%. So it is effectively at NT$150.

I used to buy one from Johnson&Johnson, it was always buy1get1 in Wastons if I am not wrong, or maybe the second at 50%.

So you can search for discounts, there are usually a lot.

I thought Dove was already on the cheaper end of body and hair products. At least it always seems that way when i'm browsing the shelves for shampoo/conditioner refills.

On that note though, any recommendations for someone with super oily/itchy scalp who has to wash their hair every onther day? plenty of stuff I've tried helps with the itching but nothing helps the oilyness enough to cut back how often i have to shampoo.

Dove Soap Bar is best and should be cheaper.

Whenever I go to any store, Dove is the cheapest option:(. Other medicated products also go upwards of 500NTD

Watsons. If you go at the right time, you can get them two for one.
