Oh sweet relief!!!! I am in the middle of a severe poison ivy/oak outbreak and besides missing the fact for a while that this WAS poison ivy going on, I have tried so many products and herbs to try and help and NOTHING gave as much relief as using this soap. The package comes with three smaller, single-use bars (like a motel soap) about 1/4" in width and one is to use it all up at one time, or throw away what wasn't used up. Wash in as hot as water as you can stand. Sounds like it would be agony to scrub (with multiple large areas on my body with raised welts that are oozing and looking like a third degree burn or something...) but it actually feels SO good to scrub those areas! The soap gets applied right over the outbreak areas, scrubbing for 30 seconds at least and then rinsing off with the hot water. The skin is tougher than we think it is, and this soap is removing the irritant - the Urushiol - that is causing the weeping, oozing and burning. NO more annoying itching!!! No bleeding - just drying it up. Yes, I needed to go into the second bar (more oozing this am in spots) and I cut the next bar in two - using half this time until gone... and thrifty me - I have another half to use again if this second dose doesn't do the trick. Yes - my skin still is very red, sore and bumpy after the second treatment, but the welts have flattened and that annoying itch has practically gone away. (There still may be more areas that might pop up... that I didn't scrub... but I have the solution- more soap bars!) Once the areas have turned towards healing I can use my herbs and salves again on my skin, also remembering my immune system support herbs (taking a beating) - as well as keeping the body 'plumbing' working well to aid in removing the toxins from my body. (I was weak, sweaty, and quite run down with all of these outbreaks going on all over my body... a severe outbreak is no fun at all.) What I love is that this soap is NOT a suppressant - but it binds with the oil residue that is obviously still present on my skin (even after multiple showers and baths this past week) - and washes it away. LOVE THAT!!! This soap will ALWAYS be on hand here at our house - recommended HANDS DOWN! Get some! This is worth its weight in gold when it is needed.Read full review

People who leave negative often one star reviews complaining about small size of soap for $10 or so, Please het real. You not shopping for a fancy 7oz bar that will last for month or two. This single bar is designed for single use relief from scratching and reducing an outbreak and eventually eradicating it completely. Try cut it in half, use at once or toss it. The relief alone is worth tenfold . Im buying in bulk for every summer to have on hand. Just like one reviewer stated earlier “hot water+intense scrubbing “ does the trick especially at bad outbreak. However is good to use every time when you suspect you got in contact with poison.

This product works exceptionally well in relieving the itch and spread of poison ivy. I keep it on-hand all the time. I will not be caught with out it. This is the only product on the market that will relieve the pain and suffering of poison ivy, oak, sumac. I have tried almost every product and none holds a candle to this product.

Too small of a bar for the price- but its some great stuff. I was very dissatisfied with the size. Smaller than some of the hotel sized samples. But as far as how it works- yes! Love it.
