Oatmeal & Honey Bar Soap
60 Day Satisfaction Guarantee
Nature's answer for itchy skin — summer rash or winter dry.
Product Description
If you've ever suffered through poison ivy, you know there's nothing quite like that relentless, maddening itch. And if you've ever endured a harsh Ohio winter, you know dry, tight, flaky skin tells its own uncomfortable story. Most people reach for whatever's in the medicine cabinet or grab a bottle off the drugstore shelf. We'd like to suggest something better.
Our Oatmeal & Honey Bar Soap is handcrafted with colloidal oatmeal, real honey, and nourishing natural oils — a combination trusted for generations to calm irritated, reactive, and moisture-starved skin. Colloidal oatmeal gently cleanses and exfoliates urushiol — the oily resin behind poison ivy's notorious itch — from the skin's surface in summer, and buffs away dry, flaky winter skin to reveal the softer skin underneath. Honey draws in moisture and supports the skin's natural balance year-round.
The result is a rich, creamy lather that cleans thoroughly without stripping, calms without chemicals, and leaves skin feeling genuinely refreshed — not just washed. A bar for every season. A bar for every skin.
How to use
For Poison Ivy:
Wet the affected area with cool water — not hot, as heat can intensify itching. Work the bar into a generous lather and apply directly to skin. Allow the lather to sit for 30–60 seconds, letting the colloidal oatmeal work against the urushiol oil. Rinse thoroughly with cool water. Repeat 2–3 times daily as needed.
For Dry Winter Skin:
Use daily as your regular face and body bar. Lather generously, massage into skin using circular motions to gently exfoliate dry patches, then rinse with warm water. Follow with Oatmeal & Honey Lotion to lock in moisture and keep skin comfortable all day.

Two Seasons. One Bar.
Spring & Summer — Poison Ivy Season
Colloidal oatmeal is uniquely effective on poison ivy. It physically helps lift and exfoliate urushiol oil from the skin's surface — the key to interrupting the spreading reaction — while naturally calming and comforting the skin during washing. The FDA recognizes colloidal oatmeal as a safe and effective skin protectant. Pair with the Oatmeal & Honey Lotion to keep skin moisturized between washes.
Fall & Winter — Dry Skin Season
Cold, dry air pulls moisture from skin, leaving it tight, flaky, and uncomfortable. This is where oatmeal and honey shine as an everyday bar. Colloidal oatmeal gently exfoliates dead, dry skin cells while the honey and cold-process glycerin flood skin with moisture at every wash. Unlike commercial soaps that strip skin dry, this bar leaves your skin feeling genuinely nourished — even in the harshest winter months.
