I use this soap for myself and my three dogs. I live in a wooded area find that it helps repel ticks. It’s a must in spring, summer and fall in northeastern USA. Thanks!

Nothing but beef tallow touches this skin from now on. I use tallow in my hair and moisturizer and aftershave. And tallow soap (with an exfoliating hand towel) to scrub off the day. It's very light and silky. I use it to shave, too. So glad to have found this product.

This is my second order and it is a re-order because I was so pleased with the first quart of Pine Tar Shampoo. The product seemed adequately packed and was shipped promptly, but USPS handling was deficient. When I let Len know that only one bottle of three arrived, he graciously and promptly sent two more. Thankfully, these two arrived unscathed.

I am appreciative that eco-minded, ethical producers are still around and I'm happy to support them. Rock on!

I’ve finally found the true essence of carbolic soap with Old Whippersnapper’s Carbolic Soap, and it’s everything I’ve been searching for.

Let’s talk about the scent. This is where the soap truly shines for me. Unlike many other “carbolic” soaps that lean on cresylic acid and the distinct smell of creosote as its signature smell, Old Whippersnapper uses pure Carbolic Acid (Phenol). My nose confirmed this by directly comparing it to the pure phenol scent from a Chloraseptic spray (minus the cherry, of course!).

You get that classic, unmistakable, strong aroma: deeply medicinal, tarry, and smoky but with a prominent leathery quality. It’s less astringent than other formulas, making it uniquely comforting. This isn’t just a faint whiff; it’s a powerful, nostalgic presence that perfectly fills the air, signaling genuine cleanliness.

The performance is equally satisfying. It builds a beautiful, rich lather and, crucially for my sensory needs, it rinses incredibly cleanly. No lingering, weird film or residue is left on my skin, just a feeling of pure cleanliness. Yes, it’s a potent cleanser and can be drying, but that’s a small trade-off easily managed with my unscented moisturizer afterward.

This soap is more than just a product; it’s a direct, sensory link to my great-grandparent's hygienic practices and the “old reliable” hygiene of a simpler time. It’s profoundly comforting and bringing back so many good memories, making it invaluable, especially now. If you’re like me and appreciate authentic, strong, and unique scents with a rich history, you must experience Old Whippersnapper’s Carbolic Soap. It’s the real McCoy.

5/5 Nostalgia in soap form!

Top shelf product. Will be ordering again.

Always good stuff and easy to deal with. As long as they keep making it, I’ll keep buying it.

I've tried this soap from eBay years ago and it stayed in my memory because it was so good. Now I've ordered and used almost all of the various types and have to say it's a no brainer. Don't go and buy the $15 soaps from the grocery stores. These are 100x better than those brands with zero negative effects. Thank you!

I love this stuff, so far -- cleans well and leaves my hands nice and soft!

Lather is extremely smooth and my skin loves it. I usually use this as a conditioner cleaning after hitting my hair with the pine tar bar.

I’m a seasoned girl. The pine tar shampoo highlights my hairs natural color. Paired it with the lavender conditioner for dry hair. Recommending to my sisters. Like they say a little dab will do ya.😊

Smells great works great reasonable price

Mix and match order. Already loved the pine tar and found some new favorites. The only downside is my wife ripped off all the lemongrass bars LOL.

Always a great value and superior quality soap.
