Pine Tar & Essential Oil Soap 3.60oz

Experience the deep, restorative clean of the forest with our handcrafted Pine Tar Soap. Made in Middleboro, this rugged bar is formulated with organic conditioning oils and natural pine tar to deeply cleanse, soothe, and comfort tired skin.

The Scent Profile: Bold, earthy, and distinctly smoky. The rich, natural aroma of pine tar takes center stage, while subtle hints of peppermint, spearmint, and sweet orange essential oils work in the background to gently round out the finish.

Key Ingredients & Benefits:

• Natural Pine Tar: Offers a traditional, deep-cleansing lather and a bold, smoky scent known for comforting dry or irritated skin.

• Organic Shea Butter: Adds firmness to the bar and richness to its creamy lather.

• Organic Coconut Oil: Helps create a firm bar with plentiful bubbles and effective cleansing.

• Organic Castor Oil: Helps boost and stabilize the lather for lasting, creamy bubbles.

• Organic High-Oleic Sunflower Oil: Complements the cleansing oils and contributes to the bar’s mild washing feel.

The Essential Oils & Their Roles

• Peppermint: Adds a crisp, penetrating mint aroma. Its naturally occurring menthol is valued for a cooling sensation in topical herbal preparations and is traditionally used in rubs for tired muscles. A rinse-off soap does not offer the same exposure as a leave-on preparation.
• Spearmint: Adds a softer, sweeter mint note that complements peppermint and balances the smoky pine tar. Its role here is primarily aromatic; it should not be assumed to have peppermint’s menthol-driven cooling action.
• Sweet Orange: Adds a bright citrus note to round out the earthy, smoky blend. Traditionally enjoyed in aromatic blends for its cheerful, refreshing scent, rather than as a treatment for a skin condition.

These notes explain the oils’ aromatic roles and traditional uses, not clinically established treatment effects of this finished soap.

Made with 15% pine tar. Size: 3.60 oz.
