Hypoallergenic Body Bar Recommendations

Does anyone have any?

I recently switched back to Dove, which means I've broken out in a rash. As the rash on my chest perfectly matched an 'identify my skin rash' chart that I found online as 'accidental soap poisoning.' I've had this problem before. What should I use. I've obviously never found a suitable replacement.

I would like the soap to be bright white, and, solid. Those are my only two requirements. Those, and that I'm not allergic. I don't like rashes on my skin.
 
I've identified the offending ingredients. I'm going to try some Dial soap for my shower before bed tonight, and, I'll post the results.
 
I used to use any old soap or body wash then got into using Dr. Bronner's or artisan soaps. When I went back to the old stuff I developed rashes in my armpits.

I believe the issue was the presence of sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium laureth sulfate. I found some soaps (Lever 2000) that doesn't have SLS and haven't had an issue at all. FYI Dove has SLS.
 
River Soap Company milk & honey soap. I don't know if it qualifies as hypoallergenic (which technically has no legal definition anyway), but it's exceptionally mild and fragrance free; it's also very rich, creamy and non-drying. You can use the company's store locator to find a store in your area that carries the brand.
