How should I use SHIK liquid tar soap for oily or uneven-looking skin on the body?

Use it as a normal rinse-off soap on oily body areas, once a day at most, and always rinse thoroughly. Follow with a moisturiser if your skin feels tight.

Does SHIK tar soap leave a smoky smell on the skin after washing?

The smoky aroma is noticeable during washing, but most users find it does not linger on the skin after rinsing. Rinse well and air out the bathroom if you are sensitive to the smell.

Can I use this liquid tar soap on my face, or is it better for the body?

It is made for hands and body, and while it can be tried on oily facial areas, the face is more sensitive. Rinse quickly, moisturise, and do a patch test first.

Birch tar has long been known for its healing properties. Tar soap has antifungal, antimicrobial, and regenerative properties. Therefore, it is recommended as an auxiliary remedy for various inflammatory skin conditions, acne, and is particularly suitable for people with oily skin. For dry and sensitive skin, it is recommended to use moisturizing and soothing products in parallel.

Tar soap is entirely natural as it does not contain synthetic fragrances or colorants. Despite the specific scent of the soap, it does not linger on the skin after bathing. The antibacterial properties of the soap are confirmed by testing protocols of component organs. It is an inexpensive and versatile remedy that aids in the quick healing of various skin injuries.

Instructions for use:

Apply to wet skin, gently massage, and rinse with warm water.

What This Soap Is

SHIK Tõrva vedelseep 300 ml is a liquid tar soap for cleansing skin that tends to feel oily or look uneven. People usually choose this type of wash when they want a practical soap for hands or body with a more traditional ingredient profile, especially if they prefer products without added perfume or colourants.

Key Ingredient: Birch Tar

The key component is birch tar, which has been valued in traditional skin use for its purifying and balancing effect. In a wash-off product, it helps remove excess sebum, sweat and surface impurities while giving the skin a cleaner, fresher feel. The formula also includes glycerin, which helps reduce the tight feeling that can appear after washing.

Tar soap has its own characteristic smoky aroma from the birch tar itself; many users find that the scent does not linger on the skin after rinsing.

Who Chooses It and How to Use It

This soap is often chosen by people whose skin is prone to:

Shine or excess oiliness
Clogged-feeling areas
Occasional visible blemishes on the body

As a liquid soap, it lathers quickly on wet skin and is easy to use in the shower or by the sink. It fits best as a simple cleansing step for oily skin areas such as the back, chest or hands.

Cautions

Dry or sensitive skin: tar-based cleansing can feel too active — follow with a moisturising product and avoid over-washing.
Active skincare users: if you use acids, retinoids or other strong skincare, introduce this soap cautiously and watch how your skin responds.
Stop use if irritation appears.

Use it as a normal liquid soap on skin areas that tend to feel oily, shine-prone, or look uneven. Wet the skin first, pour a small amount into a palm or washcloth, and work it into a lather. Short contact time is enough: massage briefly over the back, chest, or hands, then rinse thoroughly. Because it is a liquid, it lathers quickly and is easy to use in the shower or by the sink. The formula includes glycerin, which helps reduce the tight feeling that can appear after washing.For very oily areas, once a day is usually enough as a simple cleansing step, for example in the evening shower. If your skin is only mildly oily or you wash your hands often, you can use it a few times a week and use a milder wash on other days. Tar-based cleansing can feel active, so avoid scrubbing hard and do not leave the foam sitting on the skin. After rinsing, pat the skin dry; if needed, apply a moisturiser or body lotion, especially on spots that feel dry or tight.If you currently use acids, retinoids, or other strong skincare, introduce this soap cautiously and watch how your skin responds. Stop use if irritation appears. Keep it away from the eyes; if it gets in the eyes, rinse with clean water. This is a cleansing product only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any skin condition.

The soap has a characteristic smoky aroma from the birch tar itself. That smell is noticeable when you open the bottle and while you are washing, but many users find that it does not linger on the skin after rinsing. The key is to rinse the skin thoroughly after lathering, because leftover foam is what would carry the scent after a shower. If you are sensitive to odours, use lukewarm rather than very hot water; heat makes the tar note more noticeable in the air.Unlike some perfumed shower gels, this scent is not added artificially; it comes from the tar component. After you dry with a towel and air out the bathroom, most people notice little or no remaining fragrance on the body. The bottle itself can keep a strong smell between uses, so closing the cap and storing it in a cabinet helps keep the bathroom neutral.If you are used to perfumed products, the smoky aroma may take some getting used to. A good way to decide is to try a small amount and see how you feel during the wash; the scent is not a sign of spoilage and does not mean the soap is too strong for normal use. For hand washing, rinsing under running water is enough to remove any smoky residue from the hands.

This soap is described as a liquid soap for hands or body, and it fits best as a cleansing step for oily areas such as the back, chest, or hands. It is not marketed as a facial cleanser. Facial skin is often more sensitive than body skin, and tar-based cleansing can feel too active on it, especially if you already have dry or easily irritated skin. If you still want to try it on your face, limit it to the oilier zones such as the chin, nose, or forehead, lather briefly, rinse immediately, and follow with a moisturiser. A patch test on a small area of the jawline a day before is a reasonable way to check your tolerance.Do not use it as a mask or leave it on the skin; it is meant to be washed off. For daily facial cleansing, a gentle cleanser without a high tar content is usually a safer choice, particularly if your skin reacts quickly to new products. If you use acids, retinoids, or prescription skincare, introduce this soap cautiously and observe how your skin responds; stop use if irritation appears.Keep it away from the eyes and mucous membranes. If it gets into the eyes, rinse with plenty of clean water. If you have a diagnosed skin condition or are under dermatological care, ask your specialist before using a tar-based cleanser on the face.
