Grandpa's Brands Pine Tar Soap, 4.25 Ounce

Creosote smell.. I have NEVER got that from Pine Tar soap. The Creosote/tarman smell is more synonimose with Coal Tar Soaps i feel. Pine Tar is nuch more of a tobacco, cigar, bonfire smoke kind of odour (for myself), but in a great fresh way. This particular soap leaves your skin feeling (dare i say it for a bloke) moisturised.., bot dry or tight ib anyway like allot of soaps do. This soap lathers up well i have found tegardless of HARD water which soaps tend not to like. More importantly, when used you feel NOT ONLY CLEAN..., but disinfected too. You smell fresh but not overpoweringly so, avbit like coal tar soap and any carbolic soaps tend to do so. Ive found it to remove all daily acquired dirts and odours in my line of occupation and the cleanliness lasts all day too.

This soap is awesome. I kept having a rash come up down side of my nose and temple areas. Tried all the usual face cleaners from the supermarket/high street but nothing seemed to take the redness away. Was prescribed a cream by GP but no luck. Two washes with this and the rash began to fade. After a week the rash is no more. Leaves skin feeling refreshed. The smell isn't too bad in my opinion but obviously smelt better face products. I shave my head with a razor so use the soap as shave soap which it also does a great job of. Bought mine February 2015 now middle of May and still have a quater left so good value as well.

I have been using Pine Tar Soap in general for a while. I also use another brand, made in Britain, which has usually worked out slightly cheaper than "Grandpa's". Both are very similar. My skin is quite sensitive and sometimes, depending on weather and work, can occasionally suffer the odd bout of things like eczema, infections, etc. This soap feels lovely on the skin. It cleans well enough to prevent and greasiness, spots and infections, but doesn't dry my skin. It is also mild enough to wash my hair in. For this use, I find the Grandpa's brand the best, although I wash my hair with the other brands of Pine Tar soap too, and so far I have found them all suitable for this. I use a shaving brush and traditional shaving soap, but when I've been short I've also used this to shave with and it did the job as well as my shave soap. When I used this on my hair, I get a lot more volume than with conventional shampoo. My scalp was never itchy either. As a result, I can heartily recommend this as an "all in one", although your mileage may vary and you might be better off with separate shampoo/soap/shaving soap. As with other Pine Tar Soaps I've tried, it soothed pretty-much any problem I had with my skin, and stopped its return. A nice side effect I also noticed with the other brands, is that I'm sure I get bitten less by insects when I have used this and spend time in the woods. I find the smell very nice, infact I absolutely love it, although some people might not like the smell of the actual bar itself. Like most brands of this type of soap, the smell can vary a bit between bars - sometimes it's more tarry and sometimes (most of the time for the "Grandpa's" brand), it smells more like a woodland camp-fire, which is simply heavenly. Fortunately it's not overpowering, so once you've used it people can't really smell it on you. Speaking of smell, a final side effect is that I noticed my arm pits were always still fresh at the end of a long hard day when I'd showered with this. Again, that's just this soap's effect on me, your mileage may vary - but all I can say is that it appears to be a fantastic cure-all for me...

Thought I would try this as been having some dry/red skin on my face. Cleared it up in a couple of days. It is very expensive but its very nice soap, it doesn`t give your skin that "tight" feeling you get from some soaps but you feel really clean. I personally like the smokey sort of smell but its not for everyone.

From 37 weeks onwards in my pregnancy I developed a nasty case of PUPPS, it was red and itchy and I was clawing at my skin until it bled and could barely sleep at night. I tried many remedies including calamine lotion, oatmeal and aqueous cream, none of which worked and just seemed to irritate my skin even more. I searched through the internet and read many good reviews of how this soap made their rash clear up really quickly and decided to give it a go. The soap itself smells like a campfire and pine trees (and it really smelled up my bathroom) but it really did work miracles. After only 4 days of using the soap twice a day, the rash completely cleared up and I no longer felt itchy! I keep using it everyday to keep the rash away. It really is a 'wonder soap' and I strongly recommend it to anyone suffering from PUPPS, just wish I heard about it sooner!

This was recommended to me whilst pregnant for a pregnancy rash that is painful and appears on any stretch marks. This did work to soothe it in the short term. Didn't like the smell which lingered around after on your skin to but it did help.

Great soap, so good for the skin, smells fantastic and creates a good lather. Leaves you smelling super fresh and clean !

After more than 2 years of itchy raised skin that "the professionals" had failed to clear with soap.substities, steroid creams and massive quantities and applications of emollients within two weeks the patches in the photos have gone. This was an almost whole body condition and finally there is relief. It has been a miserable time and ai cannot believe the difference. I wet the skin , lather the soap across the skin, let is sit for a minute or two before showing it off. I have continued with emollients as prescribed but there use is down from 6 times a day to just 3. If you have troublesome skin, give this a go and I hope it works for you. We reached for it in desperation and I am so glad we did. We will continue to use it going forward. One bar lasted about a month.

No resuelve ningún problema relacionado con descamaciones pero parece un jabón fabricado con ingredientes naturales nada mas... En su mano está valorar el precio de este jabón.

I bought Grandpa's Pine Tar soap because I had read positive reviews and also George Bruno (a.k.a. The Sultan of Silver) whose opinion I trust recommended it on one of his beard related videos. From my experience, the soap has been fantastic on my beard. It truly cleanses and cleans my beard and my beard hair remains soft and has not become dry over the month or so of using the soap twice daily. It lathers well with a small amount applied on wet hands, and is easy to work through the beard hair as it becomes nice and slippery once a lather forms. This makes it easy to massage the skin under the beard, especially the chin and cheek areas. It rinses out very easily and my beard has a nice volume once dry. I've used it on my skin and head hair with success, and it makes hair squeaky clean. The bar seems to last quite well too. I also love the pine tar scent; it doesn’t linger at all for those who might be worried about the scent clashing with cologne etc. A great product in my opinion!

Good

É puro e forte, cheiro de fumaça de carne. Eu gostei , mas pode ser bem exótico e inusual para a maioria.

mit der Seife reinige ich meinen Bart. Der Duft ist ziemlich intensiv nach Pinie oder Kiefer und etwas teerig. Im Bad richt es etwas danach, aber ich mag es. Sie macht einen schönen weichen Schaum und vom Geruch bleibt eigentlich kaum was haften. Ich benutze es erstmal weiter anstelle von richtigem Bartshampoo. Probiert es mal aus.
