This old-fashioned Pine tar soap is popular for it's strong pine smell, as well as it's soothing qualities. Pine Tar soap has been used to relieve itching and inflammation due to bug bites, eczema, psoriasis, dandruff, and other skin ailments.  Each bar comes in it's own biodegradable recycled paper pulp box.  I really enjoy reusing these boxes for trinkets, drawer fresheners, or as a travel soap box/dish.  I'd love to hear what you use them for! As with all Free Range Wingo products, it's all natural, GMO Free, and organic where it matters. Variations in color and texture are normal.
