I tried campsuds before too and wasn't a big fan. I use Dr. Bronners all the
time. It's my shampoo for daily use at home, and I use it for cleaning other
surfaces too. I have a few small Nalgene bottles (1, 2, 4 oz) that I'll fill
with it depending on how long I'm out, though generally the 2oz bottle is
what I tend to bring. I've washed clothes too and that worked well.

As others mentioned before, just stay away from the minty ones. They are
tingly in sensitive areas (scary at first if you don't get the disclaimer!)
and just are generally stronger smelling. I've been using almond for the
last gallon or so and would recommend that one. Barely a scent to it.
