🌲 Easy Pine Tar Cold Process Soap, no stick blender required.

An easy cold process pine tar soap, no stick blender required. I love this recipe! And so do many of my friends and family, especially the men. I don't make any therapeutic claims about this soap, except to say that Pine Tar has been used medicinally for skin conditions for centuries, and is said to have a calming effect on irritated skin. I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions, but either way, this is a unique and satisfying soap to make and to use.
This is a good general introduction to Pine Tar and its uses:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pine_tar
Some interesting dermatological research on Pine Tar:
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5434829/#:~:text=Pine%20tar%20is%20thought%20to,%E2%80%90inflammatory%2C%20antibacterial%20and%20antifungal.
And a great link from Classic Bells website on the use of Pine Tar in soap making:
classicbells.com/soap/pineTarSoap.asp
Where to buy Pine Tar?
That will entirely depend on your location. Australians can purchase pure Swedish pine tar quite easily from online pet supplies shops, saddlery and produce agencies (make sure you get pure pine tar!) and possibly even some boat building suppliers. Soap makers in other countries will have to do their own research. Just make sure you purchase 100% pure pine tar, and nothing else.
*Recipe details*
[950g oils in total]
598g olive oil
85g coconut oil
95g cocoa butter
47g castor oil
114g pine tar (pine tar is not an oil and does not saponify with the lye, but it is usually calculated into the soap recipe as a percentage of the total oil amount. Most soap calculators list pine tar in their oils selection).
9.5g beeswax
38g essential oil (I used 23g tea tree and 15g cedar, but you can use any EO's you think would pair nicely with the pine tar).
237g water (I used all ice, but half water - half ice might be better).
118g sodium hydroxide/caustic soda (make sure your product is at least 98% sodium hydroxide).
This recipe has a 4% superfat and uses a 2 : 1 water to lye ratio.
My mould used in this video is 37cm long, 7cm wide and 5.7cm deep. It holds 1.480kg of soap batter.
METHOD as per video demonstration
*New to soap making? This is important!*
Sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide (lyes) used in soap making, in granular or flake form or in solution with water/other liquids, as well as raw soap batter, are highly corrosive and require careful and attentive handling and the proper use of personal protective equipment.

Thank YOU sweetest Elly. To my surprise, my boyfriend just told me he used to buy pine tar soaps for his sensitive skin. I’m making it this afternoon. So exciting. Again, thank you so much. Your recipes are so good. I made a few of them. Many soap teachers here on KZbin ‘forget’ to mention ‘little details’ on their video. Not sure if accidentally or purposely. Not you.

[@cydrych]

I love PTS. It is great for the beard. I might have to give this a go. As a “blokey bloke” I can confirm that it’s because of the scent, or the lack of floral/sweet scents. That is definitely an added bonus to how well it works on my coarse chin whiskers. 😁✌🏻👍🏻

We always had pine tar at home when I was a child. We were in a small village and my grandma used this tar to stop snakes enter home. And it was a medicine also. While you make the soap, I remembered and nosed the smell as it was here. 💓💓

What a lovely memory. This soap evokes some nice memories for me too. It's quite special in that way :)

Hi from Bundaberg. My hubby and I love pine tar smell too! I'm just starting on my soaping journey and am so excited about trying this soap. I have several skin conditions and use coal tar products currently. I'm hoping this will work out to be an effective alternative for me.

Oh I hope so too Natasha! Greetings from Brissy :)

I just made this with equal parts cedar, pine, eucalyptus, and bergamot EO’s. Smells delightful! Don’t know if I can wait 6 weeks.😳 Thanks very much.
