Works wonders for skin conditions, the smell is not that badOct 27, 2007
By Samus The soap smells pretty good if your idea of "pretty good smells" includes "lumber yard". But this stuff is fantastic for a variety of skin conditions, my dermatologist recommends it. You do get used to the odor after a bit, and once you've used it the lingering scent is not bad enough to freak out your co workers or cause false bomb alerts at airports. Leaves your skin feeling soft and refreshed.

You just have to try it!Mar 29, 2007
By Creed I first began using Pine Tar soap as a medic in Vietnam to treat all kinds of skin conditions. It just seemed to work like magic on everything from rashes to eczemas to itchy scalp.
Then, it seemed to disappear from the shelves and I thought they had stopped making it. However, every now and then I would find an old drugstore somewhere that carried a few bars and I bought whatever they had. Now I see that Amazon carries it and at a great price too.
If you suffer from any kind of skin condition, you should try one bar. Some people complain about the smell but personally I like the smell. It has a woody odor and even that disappears within an hour.

Best Against FungusDec 15, 2008
By Solo Goodspeed I'll spare the details, but I'd been having a deep lower fungus condition for months, a maddening, burning, itching, raw, seeping and generally disgusting misery that nothing seemed to help. Powders, cremes, salt baths, I tried it all to no avail. Then I remembered a scalp and ear condition my son had years ago that we used pine tar shampoo on -- we called it "Burned Wood Juice" because of the scent -- that seemed to clear it up. I bought it in bar form, and two weeks later all the aforementioned symptoms had diminished significantly, and I expect them to be gone in the coming month. I'm so glad I remembered this stuff, just wish I'd thought of it earlier before my summer was ruined.
I'd do a commercial for pine tar soap or shampoo in a heartbeat. I don't know how it does it, but it really fights fungus infections like nothing else I've ever tried. And I find the scent very agreeable, makes my bathroom smell like a forest. I'll be stocking up, as my skin is prone to breakouts, and I can't seem to find the soap in any retail stores, even here in L.A. At less than half the cost (at least here online) of other products that claim to work, but don't, pine tar seems to qualify as one of those Best Kept Secrets. Highly recommended for skin conditions most of us would rather not talk about.

Very pleasedSep 27, 2007
By Paul H. Wilson I am very pleased with this soap. I used it many years ago, as a teenager and it seemed to reduce acne. Now, as a middle-aged very fair skinned person I have started using it again to clean and moisturize in one step, and it seems to reduce some skin problems I have.(Even the dermatologist noticed.) As a guy I really don't like scented soaps but this one smells fine to me, and the mosquitoes don't seem to like it much (jes fine by me!).

Best bar soap ever.Dec 19, 2007
By lucas I have been using Grandpa's Pine Tar soap for years, after one use I was in love. I know the scent is STRONG, but I really like it. Some people think it smells bad, but that's just because we are used to our skin-care and everything else smelling like tropical fruits or cucumbers or flowers. This soap smells real. And I love it. My skin loves too!
