Natural Birch Tar Soap Liquid 300ml/10.1 Fl Oz by Neva Cosmetics

Birch tar is a substance derived from the dry distillation of the bark of the birch tree. The benefits of birch tar have been well known for centuries. Unfortunately, with the advent of the modern cosmetic industry, the benefits of Birch tar have largely been forgotten. Acne, eczema, seborrhea, psoriasis, dandruff, and itchy skin have all been successfully treated with birch tar for centuries. Because of the naturally occurring salicylic acid (an organic plant hormone) and methyl salicylate (an organic ester) in birch tar, it acts as a natural exfoliator that sloughs off dead skin and tones new skin. It helps enhance the body's blood circulation and prevents toxins from collecting in muscles and skin. Birch tar can even be applied to small cuts and wounds to prevent infections and speed up the healing process because of it's disinfectant and antiseptic properties. Soap does not contain artificial colors or fragrance additives, has a natural dark color. So it has a strong smell of tar. Smell disappears from skin for 10 minutes after using soap.*
