    For me it would depend on the channel.
    For FMCG I would go with SLES.
    For “Natural” including FMCG I would use SCS.
    So I guess in order of preference I would go with (if possible) SLES, then SCS and finally SLS.

    Due to the ethoxylation, SLES is milder than both SCS or SLS (both SCS and SLS are basically the same, only one is mainly a C12-C14 and the other predominantly C12). That’s why I prefer SLES  :)
