Some shower gels have microplastics for added abrasion, but so do some soaps tbf. Still, less good at cleaning because solid soaps involve more scrubbing.

Congress passed a law banning these in 2015. That's not to say micro plastics aren't still present in some, or that they didn't find loopholes, but the plastic beads in body wash issue was actually being addressed.
