If you have contact dermatitis to chemicals, Britain is a difficult
place to be. You won't find hypoallergenic stuff without witchy
additives in the UK anywhere near as easily as you will in almost any
country in continental Europe, and British labelling often conceals
the really dire ingredients like clioquinol (Marion is hypersensitive
to that one). So if the original poster was talking about a holiday
visit to the UK they had a point. Who wants to spend the first half
day of their holiday trying to buy soap or aqueous cream and reading
fine print on labels in a foreign language?
