Tar soap also has a beneficial effect on intimate hygiene. Since tar produces a restorative effect, treats irritation, microcracks and softens the skin, regular use of this product has a positive effect on the microflora of a woman’s genital organs.

This natural soap will help eliminate the disturbing manifestations of thrush. This disease changes the microflora of the vagina, resulting in painful itching and discharge.

Tar soap can help restore the acid-base balance in the vagina. If you have candidiasis, you should not use special hygiene products; it is better to use soap with tar to relieve pain and gain self-confidence.

If you have thrush, you need to wash with this product in the morning and evening. For prevention purposes, you can use it 2-3 times a week. Despite the naturalness and effectiveness of tar soap, we must not forget that treatment at home for any gynecological disease is extremely undesirable. If you notice discomfort, itching, or unusual discharge, you should immediately consult a doctor.

Use for psoriasis

Due to stress and reduced immunity, psoriasis can develop. This is a rather unpleasant disease. Patients are looking for various hormonal ointments and medications, but in folk medicine this ailment has long been treated with soap and tar.

In order to be treated correctly and safely, you need to take into account the patient’s skin type. For oily skin, you need to wash your face 2 times a day, and for dry and sensitive skin types, it is better to reduce the use to 1 time per week.

  1. Wet your body and apply soap foam.
  2. Leave for a few minutes, once every 30 days you can keep for up to 10 minutes.
  3. Rinse off with warm water.
  4. Rinse with a decoction of chamomile and calendula, which will soothe and soften the skin.

The harm of soap

Tar soap is mainly beneficial for humans, but in certain situations it can also cause harm. It must be used correctly to prevent negative consequences. Before you start using it, it is recommended to do a simple test: apply soap to the inner surface of your elbow and leave for a while. If no rashes appear, you can use this remedy.

The unusual smell of this soap can cause harm. There are people who cannot stand it; it makes them sick. In such a case, tar soap should not be used.

This product also causes dry skin. To prevent this, you should apply a moisturizer after washing.

Tar soap can be harmful if there are open wounds on the body. In such a case, you should not use this remedy.

Contraindications

Tar soap has some contraindications for use:

Tar soap is an effective natural product that can quickly solve any health problems. The unique properties it possesses will preserve the beauty of your body and hair. To look healthy and beautiful, you don’t have to buy expensive cosmetics; you can replace them with this wonderful, natural product.

At a time when the beauty industry was not yet as developed as it is now, our grandmothers and mothers had to look for improvised methods and ways of caring for themselves. One of these methods was the use of medicated soap for the face, body and hair. The most popular was considered to be tar, which is still known today.




Peculiarities

Tar soap is a powerful antiseptic. It has very strong antibacterial properties. It is because of this that it is often used on problematic and oily skin, reduces inflammation, reduces oily shine and disinfects the skin, erasing old acne and post-acne like an eraser and preventing new ones from appearing. Treats eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis, can get rid of closed comedones and lighten blackheads, scars and spots. Treats wounds, boils, ulcers and scratches. Restores cell regeneration, regulates the functioning of the sebaceous glands of the skin.



In the form of shampoo or liquid soap, it helps relieve flaking and itching of the scalp, cure oily and dry seborrhea, get rid of dandruff and even lice and head lice. It will help delay the wash day for oily hair types.

Soap is also suitable for intimate hygiene - to maintain sterility or treat candidiasis.



Kinds

Depending on the method of use, purpose and form of release, medicinal tar soap can be divided into:

  1. Lumpy. It is a black or dark brown regular bar of soap. Suitable for washing hands, body and face. The classic version, the most common. An ideal option for facial skin - complete with a sponge or mesh for foaming - eliminates pimples and acne, expression lines, excess oily skin, and blackheads.
  2. Liquid. It looks like toilet soap for washing hands and hair, but it’s not very suitable for the face, as it doesn’t foam very pleasantly. Also black. Suitable for getting rid of sweating under the arms, preventing acne on the skin of the back, chest, arms and legs, for some forms of lichen and other diseases of the skin of the body.
  3. Thick soap. It is quite rare and has a sticky, thick, black gel-like consistency. It is used for the body and hair, less often for the face, since the consistency is not particularly suitable for washing.

Compound

The main active ingredient is birch tar itself, obtained from birch wood. Sometimes birch bark tar is used, obtained from the same birch tree, only from its birch bark (bark). But it is more suitable for internal use for cysts, oncology, fibroids, cleansing the blood and intestines, since it is softer - birch bark tar soap is suitable even for dry skin, but it is quite difficult to find one.

The tar itself is thick and viscous in consistency, non-adhesive, dark with a characteristic odor. It contains resins, phenol, toluene, xylene.


Natural soap should smell sharp—tarry, like Vishnevsky’s ointment. If it smells completely different, it means that fragrances have been added to the soap (in the composition they are designated as parfum, with an asterisk * - natural perfumes, from essential oils, without - chemical production). They are not allergic, do not actually affect the dermatological properties of the product, only slightly change its smell, muffle it and increase shelf life.

As a rule, soap contains foaming silicones (SLS)– and a good soap should have natural, gentle ones. Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Ammonium Laryl Sulfate are the most dangerous. They clog pores and prevent oxygen from reaching the skin, preventing it from breathing. Mineral oil works in a similar way - Mineral Oil, which is a product of petroleum refining. Parabens(paraben) are rarely included in soap products. Alcohols have a place if they are cosmetic - but ammonia or ethyl dry the skin and are designated as alcohol.


Remember that the higher the product is in the composition, the greater its concentration. However, tar is used in the production of soap in an amount of ten percent, so it is quite possible for it to be at the bottom of the list. Also, any product must have a GOST mark.

All kinds of additives are possible. For example, glycerin and vegetable oils act as a humectant, soda, coal and salt– additional cleaning additives, celandine and other herbal infusions mix the ingredients, guaranteeing better performance and affecting the activity of the sebaceous glands.





Best before date

If you are going to use the product in skin care, or even more so in intimate hygiene, then you cannot neglect its expiration date. This can result in new inflammation, dryness, itching and irritation.

On average, tar bar soap has a shelf life of twelve months. This refers to a completely natural composition, without additives that extend shelf life. If they are present, then the shelf life increases to three years (36 months). As a rule, such additives are safe and do not affect the quality of the product.

Benefits and harms

The main significant disadvantage of tar soap is that it dries. Frequent washing with it contributes to the appearance of peeling and irritation, reducing the protective layer of the epidermis and increasing sensitivity.

When used during active sun, before tanning or solarium, skin sensitivity may increase and there is a possibility of getting a sunburn.

From the organoleptic properties it is impossible not to highlight the smell of soap– the aroma of tar is unpleasant for many; some categorically cannot tolerate it. However, it does not remain on the skin after washing, indoors or on clothes, so, in principle, it is quite tolerable. If we are not talking about individual allergic intolerance, of course.

Often, looking at a shelf in the bathroom that belongs to a woman who uses expensive products and cares for her skin and hair, you can find, inconspicuous at first glance, a piece of ordinary tar soap. We will look at the reason for the popularity of this soap below.

The benefits of tar soap

Thanks to the presence of such an important ingredient as birch tar, tar soap has many beneficial properties. Remembering the medicinal properties of birch - the mother of tar, representatives of the Slavic peoples have always treated it with reverence. Possessing excellent antiseptic properties, tar has long been known not only as a medicinal product, but also as a cosmetic product.

Tar soap is easily recognized by its warm, bitter smell, which has become its calling card. It does not contain dyes or synthetic flavors.

Tar soap is used as a healing, drying and good cleanser for facial skin. It successfully fights the problem of acne, blackheads, and itchy skin.

When treating skin, in addition to simply washing with tar soap, it is used to prepare medicinal masks. This mask is easy to make and is used at the final stage of skin cleansing.

Take a bar of soap, lather it and apply the lather to your face. One of the most important functions of tar soap is to accelerate skin regeneration by increasing blood circulation.

As a means of combating acne, tar soap is used both on the face and on the back. Since ancient times, tar soap has been famous for its ability to alleviate the symptoms of psoriasis.

By regularly using tar soap, you are doing an excellent job of preventing the appearance of fungus on your feet. If the problem has already arisen, make cool baths by adding tar soap or make applications with a soap solution.

People suffering from excessive oily hair roots can use tar soap when washing their hair. It is also useful for hair loss, dandruff, and as a hair growth stimulator.

Harm of tar soap

Despite all the medicinal properties of tar, which is a medicinal product, tar soap has a number of disadvantages.

  1. The main and most unpleasant drawback is the specific smell. It is quite caustic and stable. If your skin tends to retain odors for a long time, try to highlight its aroma after using tar soap. To do this, it is recommended to use perfumes that have spicy or woody notes. Although, tar often serves as a component of expensive perfumes, adding an element of warmth to them.
  2. Due to its cheapness and availability, tar soap is tempting to use it constantly. But it must be remembered that tar is only an integral part of the soap base. Prolonged exposure to alkali on skin that is more acidic can have a detrimental effect on the condition of the skin.

Using tar soap

  • to treat fungus, hair loss, and dandruff, use tar soap in short courses;
  • as a remedy to combat facial skin problems (acne, comedones), use soap 2-3 times a week;
  • Don't forget to moisturize your skin. Having lost its natural lubrication, the skin begins to actively produce sebum;
  • rinse your hair in acidified water, using tar soap when washing your hair.

Liquid tar soap

I would like to highlight liquid tar soap as a separate item. Due to its more presentable appearance and the absence of a tarry odor in the bathroom, liquid soap is considered a more preferable option by women.

But when using such soap as a remedy, do not forget that it contains aggressive surfactants that cause skin irritation.

Believe me, no one will add expensive ingredients to a product that was originally intended to be affordable.
