The coal tar soap would be an effective alternative to a
bath gel. Essentially, you're getting the same active
ingredient - coal tar. Many people have had success
with coal tar soap for stubborn, chronic
skin conditions. Coal tar soaps, creams,
and
shampoos have all been traditionally used for skin
complaints that include seborrhea,
eczema, scabies,
psoriasis, and ringworm. If
you have any
kind of itchy, flaky, red or
scaly skin, coal tar soap is generally agreed to be the
best soap to pull out any toxic substances that may
indeed be the source of the irritation; actually, the
real source of many chronic skin conditions is, in fact,
inside the body where inadequate eliminations can lead to
unhealthy levels of toxic buildup and, in turn, inflammed
or irritated skin.
When coal tar is mentioned, we
may think of a thick, black, and sticky substance with an
unpleasant chemical odour. In fact, coal tar soap washes
off easily leaving no residue, and its aroma is not too
overpowering or perfumey. On top of that, it's
affordable, too! We have received numerous reviews from
customers who have tried our soap for their psoriasis,
and they all agree that this soap has definitely helped
to relieve their condition. It's just become and
effective and very affordable part of their daily
cleansing routine.
Another product you may wish to
try is Psoriasis Formula by
TerraVita. As I mentioned above, the
origins of many
skin disorders are, in fact, internal. The ingredients,
and
, in this blend have been included
for their
antibacterial and
anti-inflammatory effects, their positive
effects on the lymph circulation, and their abilities to
promote perspiration and
detoxification.
Compromised lymph drainage has been shown to contribute
to psoriatic lesions on the skin. Many people have had
success treating their stubborn skin ailments from the
inside out. My opinion is that an effective, whole-body
treatment for any chronic skin ailment involves both
topical and internal attention.
ZooScape is one of the best companies I have ever worked with. Their products are excellent and their customer service is outstanding! My packages are always delivered to me in a timely fashion, and I love all the little extra 'goodies' they include with your order! They will definitely continue to receive my business. Keep up the good work!

I love this soap!
This is the BEST soap if you have any kind of itchy, flaky, red or otherwise irritable skin...I can even use it in the winter without it drying out my face. It leaves no residue behind, takes off your makeup easily and smells great - not overpowering or perfumey. The bar lasts forever, and who can even believe the price! I will never use anything else to wash my face again... LOVE IT!

We have just started using coal tar soap. It lathered beautifully for my hair and left my hair feeling softer than ever before. My head didn't itch as frequently either. Good for coal tar soap.

My sister Jo has suffered from severe psoriasis for 27 years now. She's tried almost every product available to help alleviate the symptoms of this miserable condition. Recently I ordered some of your coal tar soap for her to try. Jo loves your soap and says it's the best product she's used to help relieve the itching and flaking of psoriasis. Keep up the good work :-D Best Regards, Roanne Baldwin

Miracle soap
After suffering from severe eczema for years, I tried this product and found almost instant relief. Within a week my eczema was gone completely. After using up my first bar I tried another brand that claimed to be tar soap, but within three days I was covered in eczema again. Soapworks coal tar soap is a miracle. I will never use anything else again.

Coal Tar Soap
I felt that the coal tar ingredient wasn't strong enough, but this is the only soap of it's kind that I can find.[Editor: It is also the only coal tar bar soap we can find! If we ever find another, you can be sure we will bring it to market for you!]
Also, the cost of the soap is OK, but the shipping cost is prohibitive.[Editor: You're right, soap is heavy, and shipping costs are positively correlated to weight.]

I purchased the Tar Soap for the second time to use on my grandkids dog who had mange. The dog had been taken to several Vets, and in spite of expensive treatments the problem continued. The Tar Soap has cleared up the bald sites, and the dog looks great now, and for the first time in its life acts like a puppy, and happy dog. I had to re-order due to the fact the soap was shared with a friend who also had a dog with problems. Three cheers for Tar Soap.

I have psoriasis and have used the coal tar soap. The soap helps in keeping the skin moist so the scaling and itching disappears from the skin. It calms the skin. I like it and would recommend the soap for psoriasitic people. Great soap.

I used the soap and it made me stay wake all day and night at the frist day! I learned to not use soap coal tar at the night (lol).The best use soap is only for the day to day because it makes you energy highly and feel like 10 years old to teenage!!. If you are using soap for night before go to bed and you won't be sleeping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also Recommended: I suggest you use only for day to day Coal Tar. For nightly, the different kind of soap you have been using or else as for relax is a good for you to sleep night.
DO NOT USE COAL TAR SOAP FOR THE NIGHT BEFORE YOU GO TO BED or YOU Won't sleep at the night!!!!
The coal tar soap we ordered works great.

Coal Tar Soap
I recently purchased Coal Tar soap for my 8 year old son who has psoriasis. We have been using the product for a couple of weeks now and his skin is already looking 100% better!! This soap truly helps his skin look better and it is clearing up the patches that he gets on his skin. It is hard to find a soap product that really works for his skin condition and this soap really works!!! It is very affordable and I plan on using it from now on. I am even trying it on myself and it seems to leave your skin feeling softer and smoother than regular soap. I would recommend this soap to anyone with psoriasis or anyone that just wants their skin to look and feel better. Thanks so much!!!

Excellent Product
For 40 years I have used a face cream that contained 2% coal tar. I was told by the pharmacy that it is no longer available. I searched online and found this site and ordered the coal tar soap. It works as well as the cream. My face is as smooth as a baby's bottom. I recommend this soap to everyone. I will be a customer for life. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

Coal Tar Soap For Skin Problems
Probably the most common use of coal tar soap is not for animals, but if you have a pet with skin problems I completely recommend, before you laugh up your sleeve to give it a try. My son had a young dog that had such severe skin problems she looked 'moth' eaten, if her coat had been wool. I ordered some soap from ZooScape thinking he had nothing to loose, and the Vets he had tried weren't helping the dog. In a few weeks her coat filled out, and she got frisky like a puppy she was feeling so much better. As long as they bathe her on a regular basis the coal tar soap is like a miracle drug for the dog, and her coat.
