Grandpa's Brands Company Pine Tar Soap Review

Grandpa's Brands Company Pine Tar Soap
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Let me start by saying that I KNEW this soap had a very unique smell, described by other reviewers as being similar to a campfire.I thought that would be fine, since I love camping and campfires.Unfortunately, the soap I received smells nothing like a campfire; rather, it smells like a pile of burning tires.Or like burning garbage.(Having grown up in the country, I know what both of those things smell like.)

Anyway, despite the awful smell, I tried using this soap several times.Contrary to what is written on the packaging, it did not lather white; the lather was more of a brownish-yellow.Fortunately it didn't seem to leave any discoloration on my skin.But the main reason that I won't be using this soap again is because the smell stayed on my skin for a very long time... 8+ hours.I could have lived with the brown lather and the nasty smell IF the smell had not stayed on my skin... but there is no way I'm going to go out in public smelling like a trash fire.Not gonna happen!

I really, really wanted to like this soap.I've been searching for something that would help with acne and seb derm, and this soap seems to get a lot of good reviews from folks with those conditions.I'm wondering if the manufacturer changed the formula or something, because the soap I received is just nasty and is not like the soap described in the other reviews.

Anyway, give it a try, but be prepared to smell like ashes and cinders.

My doctor perscribed this product for my continuing problem with dermatitus of the scalp.It works like a charm.It lathers up very well and always leaves my hair nice and clean.They have tried to give it a fragrance that is not so over-the-top medicinal and it's not too bad.It does smell like a medicated shampoo.Overall, it is a good product that I will continue to use for as long as I need it.

i ordered this lotion for my mother, a heart patient (takes heavy diretics)who complained constantly of itchy skin that prevented her from getting a good nightsleep. after trying all of the lotions, pills, ointments and solutions that you can purchase at pharmacies or retail counters, i decided to try this after seeing it at the hospital. my mother got relief almost immediately. it does have to be applied 3 to 4 times a day initially but after about 3 weeks, she only applies it once a day after her bath. this product is not available for purchase at the pharmacies in my town nor is it available for purchase at the hospital. i ordered it from amazon and had it in a few days- great product

Coal Tar Soap Bar (Black) (110g) Brand: SoapWorks Review

Coal Tar Soap Bar Brand: SoapWorks
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you're looking for true coal tar, SoapWorks is a waste of money. True coal tar products contains PAH's (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons). None in this soap. Instead it contains plenty artificial black pigment like a carbon agent. Stains everything but it washes out. This soap is simply a small, artificially black, coconut oil based castille soap. It lathers well and works well in that regard but do not expect medicinal skin care like a true coal tar soap delivers. Try Polytar or a similar product instead.

Revitol Dermasis Psoriasis Cream 1 Bottle Review

Revitol Dermasis Psoriasis Cream 1 Bottle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was reluctant to make a purchase for this psoriasis cream because as anyone knows who deals with this skin condition over the counter remedies and "infomercial type products" RARELY ever work.I've certainly had zero luck with them.The only relief I get is a cream I get from my Dermatologist, but at $500+ a bottle (I have no insurance) I'm always keeping my eye out for other solutions.

I usually research EVERY purchase I make, but no matter how hard I searched Google there were just no REAL reviews to be found-just a lot of websites that seemed like they were just ad placement sites...and even a website called [...].That is usually a flag...it's amazing to me when companies use this marketing tool.I mean what health or beauty company that does reviews would create a website for a product??It's very obvious from the site it was made by Revitol as it contains all the usually fluff these types of sites contain.Video testimonies, "Doctors" praise, etc. etc.

Soo I decided to give it a shot based off the idea that if it was that worthless there probably would be a site or two or at least a review that would pop up for it somewhere online.So here Iam now writing a review so that hopefully others won't be duped into buying this garbage.What you basically get is vitamin E cream.It literally is the same smell, consistency, and colour of my little jar of vitamin E cream...it's even the same style and size container-and has the exact same effects on my psoriasis.I'd swear they are just relabelling vitamin E cream and selling it at a huge price increase.I used it for two weeks solid following the instructions.I have a few different types of psoriasis on my body, and this relieved NONE of the symptoms related to any of them.It actually burned upon application (and these aren't open wounds) and made the redness and irritation worse.

I know that all products don't work the same for everyone that has psoriasis.This is just my personal account.Try it at your own risk...UPDATE!!!

I went to send the product back since they offer this "amazing" 90 day 100% satisfaction money back guarantee if you're not fully satisfied with the product.Soooo I end up reading the fine print after clicking on the "return" link....it says wayyy down at the bottom that "any products that have been opened are not returnable".Hahahah.Awesome.So I basically if you get the product and don't like the colour of the jar it's in or the box it came in you can return it for a full refund!!BUT DON'T OPEN IT.Seriously?!

Can't believe I spent money on this product.

Product Description:
Dermasis Psoriasis Cream helps fight the symptoms that cause your skin to look red and patchy with a two-fold approach:Psoriasis causes your skin cells to replicate at an extremely rapid rate (about 8 times faster than normal), which makes cells build up on your skin's surface-forming thick, unsightly patches (or plaques) of red lesions covered in dead skin. Dermasis's active ingredient, 2% Salicylic Acid, stimulates the shedding of this layer of dead skin cells to help alleviate your psoriasis. We have also added wonderful ingredients to help deep moisturize your skin. Dermasis uses gentle moisturizers, essential oils, emollients and PH balancers to help your skin feel smoother and promote healing, including:Palm Oil: Easily penetrates the skin, and forms a thin, protective layer. Vitamin E Acetate: A powerful antioxidant that increases moisture of the skin's outer layer and may provide protection against Ultra Violet damage. Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Trea Oil): This essential oil has been used by Australian Aborigines for hundreds of years to promote healthy skin. This soothing cream can be used on most skin types to help relieve the symptoms of itching, redness, irritation and scaling associated with psoriasis.
