The Grandpa Soap Company Pine Tar Body Wash

The Grandpa Soap Company Pine Tar Body Wash is a plant-based, deodorizing body cleanser that combines pine tar, tea tree oil, and cedarwood oil to cleanse and help soothe irritated skin while leaving a fresh, woodsy scent.

Formulated from simple, vegan ingredients and produced by a family-owned soapmaker since 1936, this 9.5 fl oz tube delivers a gentle daily wash for those who want botanical actives and a campfire-fresh aroma without synthetic fragrances, sulfates, parabens, or dyes. It’s crafted with Certified Organic Tea Tree Leaf Oil and Cedarwood Oil, and the recycled-content tube reflects the brand’s sustainability priorities.

How does this body wash clean and deodorize without harsh chemicals?

The formula uses pine tar’s time-honored cleansing qualities alongside tea tree and cedarwood oils to help break down surface oils and mask odors with a natural, woodsy aroma. Instead of relying on sulfates or synthetic perfumes, it leans on plant-derived actives and gentle surfactants for effective lather and rinse-off.

• Pine tar: traditional botanical cleanser known for deep-clean feel
• Tea tree leaf oil: certified organic, contributes antimicrobial-scent properties
• Cedarwood oil: adds deodorizing, grounding woodsy fragrance
• Free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, synthetic dyes, and added fragrances

What skin types and concerns does this wash suit best?

This body wash is designed for people who prefer plant-based products and those with mildly irritated or reactive skin seeking a gentle, fragrance-forward natural wash. It’s clinically tested for sensitive skin and formulated without common irritants, but it’s not a medical treatment for severe dermatological conditions.

• Good for sensitive to normal skin preferring botanical ingredients
• Suitable for users wanting reduced exposure to synthetic additives
• Not marketed as a prescription or therapeutic medicated product

How should I use the Pine Tar Body Wash for best results?

Apply a small amount to a wet washcloth, loofah, or hands, work into a gentle lather, then rinse thoroughly. Use daily in the shower or bath—focus on areas that need deodorizing or extra cleansing but avoid prolonged contact with irritated, broken skin.

• Squeeze a dime-to-quarter sized amount depending on lather preference
• Lather on wet skin or washcloth, then rinse completely
• Follow with your preferred moisturizer if extra hydration is needed
• Store tube upright in a cool, dry place; keep cap closed between uses
