Soap for Skin Rashes: The Best Type of Soap for Allergies and Sensitive Skin
What type of soap is best for allergies or sensitive skin? How does soap work? What ingredients should you avoid in soap? Get the answers to these questions and more in this comprehensive guide.
Understanding How Soap Works
Soap is a true marvel of chemistry. It is a surfactant, a compound that decreases the surface tension between a liquid and another type of matter. In the case of soap, one end of the molecule is “water loving” and moves towards the water, while the other end is repelled by water and aligns with oils and fats. This unique property allows soap to capture oils, dirt, and grime, and then attach to water, effortlessly rolling off our skin.
Ingredients to Avoid in Soap
Many commercial soaps contain a range of synthetic ingredients, fragrances, chemicals, and artificial dyes that can exacerbate allergies and irritate sensitive skin, even if the product claims to provide relief. Some of the most problematic ingredients to avoid include:
- Alcohol – Can have a drying effect and cause irritation or rashes.
- Parabens – Linked to allergic contact dermatitis reactions that can worsen existing redness or rashes.
- Synthetic Fragrances – Often derived from crude oil sources and can cause irritation and other toxic effects.
- Formaldehyde – A carcinogenic preservative that can cause skin irritation and be especially harmful for those with respiratory problems.
- Phthalates – Easily absorbed into the skin and can be particularly harmful for those with allergies and sensitive skin.
- Triclosan – An antibacterial and antifungal agent that can cause dermatitis and increase preexisting skin allergies.
What Type of Soap is Best for Allergies and Sensitive Skin?
The best type of soap for those with allergies or sensitive skin is a “true soap” – one that is created using a combination of fatty acids and alkali salts, derived from natural ingredients such as plant-based oils. These soaps are far less likely to cause skin irritation or lead to an allergic reaction, and are even safe for use on infants and pets.
Castile soap is a prime example of a true soap that is known to be gentle on sensitive skin and those prone to allergies. This is due to the hydrating nature of the saponified oils it contains, making it a great natural moisturizer. Another way to enhance the moisturizing properties of Castile soap is through a technique called “super-fatting,” where additional oils are added after the saponification process.
Tips for Choosing a Safe, Hypoallergenic Soap
When selecting a soap for sensitive skin or allergies, it’s important to look for products that contain certified organic, fair trade, and natural ingredients. Avoid soaps that list any of the problematic ingredients mentioned earlier, and opt for true soaps or Castile-based formulations instead.
It’s also a good idea to do a patch test before using a new soap, especially if you have a history of skin sensitivities. Apply a small amount to a discreet area of your skin and wait 24-48 hours to see if any irritation occurs before using the product more broadly.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between true soap and detergent-based soaps?
True soaps are made from a combination of fatty acids and alkali salts, derived from natural ingredients like plant-based oils. Detergent-based soaps, on the other hand, often contain synthetic ingredients, fragrances, and other additives that can be irritating to sensitive skin.
Can natural soaps be used on infants and pets?
Yes, true soaps made from natural ingredients are generally safe for use on infants and pets, as they are less likely to cause skin irritation or allergic reactions.
How does super-fatting improve the moisturizing properties of Castile soap?
In the super-fatting process, additional oils like hemp seed and jojoba are added to Castile soap after the saponification process. This allows the oils to retain their original form, providing extra moisture and nourishment to the skin.
Choosing the Right Soap for Your Skin
Finding the right soap for sensitive skin or allergies can be a bit of a trial-and-error process, as everyone’s skin is unique. However, by focusing on true soaps made from natural, organic ingredients and avoiding problematic synthetic additives, you can help ensure your skin stays healthy and happy. Remember to always do a patch test with any new soap and consult a dermatologist if you have persistent skin issues.

Though many soap brands advertise relief from allergies and soothing properties for sensitive skin, these claims can be misleading due to several additives and chemicals that can actually make symptoms worse.

Everyone’s health is unique. Because we’re all bio-individualistic, there’s no universal approach to wellness that satisfies each person’s needs. This is especially true when it comes to skin, our largest organ. What makes one person’s skin glowing and radiant can make another’s harsh and irritated. That said, if you have sensitive skin or suffer from skin allergies, there are a few important factors to keep in mind when choosing the right soap for your skin.
How Does Soap Work?
Soap is truly a magical molecule! It’s a surfactant – a compound that decreases surface tension between liquid and another type of matter. In the case of soap, one end of the molecule is “water loving” and moves towards the water; the other end is repelled by water and aligns with oils and fats. The result is one end of the molecule capturing oils, dirt, and grime, and the other attaching to water so it effortlessly rolls off our skin.
What Ingredients Should I Avoid?
Many soaps on the market contain added synthetic ingredients, fragrances, chemicals, artificial dyes, and other irritating ingredients that can exacerbate allergies and irritate sensitive skin, even if the product claims to help this. The following chemicals are toxic to humans in general and especially so to people with allergies and sensitive skin.
- Alcohol – Commonly found in many face washes, hand soaps, and other products, can potentially have a drying effect on your skin and may cause irritation or rashes.
- Parabens – These are added to several detergents to extend their shelf life. It has been linked to allergic contact dermatitis reactions [1] that can cause existing redness or rashes to worsen.
- Fragrance – A fragrance can be an essential oil blend, but countless body care products use synthetic fragrance, often made from crude oil sources known to cause cancer. On our skin, synthetic fragrances cause irritation and other toxic effects.
- Formaldehyde – This is a preservative found in lotions, soaps, and detergents that claim to soothe and heal the skin. It’s classified as a carcinogen, causes skin irritation, and can be especially toxic if you have respiratory problems and inhale it.
- Phthalates – Though these have been banned from body care use by the European Union, they’re still frequently used by U. S. companies. Phthalates are found in many brands’ soaps, detergents, and moisturizers. They’re easily absorbed into the skin which can be especially harmful for those with allergies and sensitive skin.
- Triclosan – This chemical is found in antibacterial soaps and detergents. It causes dermatitis and can increase any preexisting skin allergies. An antibacterial and antifungal agent, this is commonly found in detergents, hand soaps, and several products with the “antibacterial” label. When absorbed into the skin, it can cause dermatitis and increased allergic reactions. Found mostly in liquid dishwashing detergents and hand soaps labeled “antibacterial.”

What Type of Soap Is Best for Allergies or Sensitive Skin?
“True soaps” are those that are created in an old-school manner – a combination of fatty acids and alkali salts. They’re derived from natural ingredients, such as plant-based oils. Because true soaps only use elements found in nature, they’re far less likely to cause skin irritation or lead to an allergic reaction. They are even safe to use on infants and pets.
Castile soap is a true soap that’s known to be great on sensitive skin and those prone to allergies. This is due to the hydrating nature of the saponified oils it contains, making it a great natural moisturizer, especially when combined with sugar, as in our Organic Sugar Soaps.
Another way to elevate the moisturizing properties of Castile soap is a technique called super-fatting, which we use in our Pure-Castile Bar Soaps. In our Liquid Castile Soaps, hemp seed and jojoba oils are saponified, or converted into soap. But with our Pure-Castile Bar Soaps, hemp seed and jojoba oils are added after all the other oils have been saponified. As a result, these oils retain their original form, providing moisture and nourishment to our skin.

Tips for Choosing a Safe, Hypoallergenic Soap
People with sensitive and allergy-prone skin will react best to a soap that contains no artificial fragrances, alcohol, and the other chemicals listed above.

Best Soaps and Non-Soap Cleansers for Eczema
It may be time to rethink your routine and opt for a cleanser that won’t dry out your skin like soap can. Here are 6 great picks that are gentle on eczema-prone skin.

If you have atopic dermatitis, the most common type of eczema, chances are you’re looking for a way to clean your skin that won’t aggravate your symptoms.
“Ultimately the wrong cleanser can make eczema worse, contributing to dryness, irritation, and inflammation,” says Joshua Zeichner, MD, the director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology and an associate professor at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City.
While the wrong cleanser can do more harm than good, “the right cleanser can actually leave the skin hydrated,” he adds.
Read on to find out the best cleansing method for atopic dermatitis so you can feel your best even if you’re experiencing a flare-up.
Why You Should Skip the Soap
If you love a classic soap, here’s the bad news: Traditional soaps can be too harsh for people with atopic dermatitis, stripping the skin of natural oils that help retain water. “When you wash away these oils, the skin dries out, which can make you prone to eczema flares,” says Benjamin Ungar, MD, the director of the rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis clinic and an assistant professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
On top of that, the average pH level of soap ranges from 9 to 10, which is considered alkaline, while the skin’s normal pH hovers at 4 to 5, which is more neutral, according to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI). “True soaps have an alkaline pH and can further disrupt the outer skin layer,” Dr. Zeichner says.
One additional concern is that soaps may contain sodium lauryl sulfate, which creates lather, and is a compound that can irritate eczema-prone skin, the AAAAI notes.
Seek Out Fragrance-Free Cleansers Formulated for Sensitive Skin
If you have eczema, grabbing any old non-soap cleanser at the drugstore won’t do. “Because people with atopic dermatitis have sensitive skin that can be dried out and irritated easily, it’s important that the cleansing products used are directed toward sensitive skin,” says Dr. Ungar.
You’ll want to steer clear of scented cleansers, too. “People with eczema are often sensitive to fragrances, so it’s generally advisable to select products that are fragrance-free when possible,” Ungar notes.
Bottom line: Look for a fragrance-free cleanser designed for sensitive skin. “This doesn’t guarantee that it will be the right product, as everyone is different and should see how their skin responds, but it’s a very good starting point,” says Ungar.
Watch Out for Ingredients That Can Trigger Allergies or That Are Drying
In addition to red flags like fragrance, people should be mindful that a cleanser may contain an ingredient that triggers a skin allergy. “If someone notices that a product worsens the eczema, then it may be worthwhile to see a dermatologist to assess whether further testing for allergies to certain ingredients might make sense,” Ungar says.
According to the National Eczema Association, the following ingredients may be irritating to people with eczema:
- Tea tree oil
- Urea
- Retinoids
- Lanolin
- Cocamidopropyl betaine
- Propylene glycol
- Ethanol
Also beware of super-sudsy cleansers. “Lathering or foaming cleansers generally are more drying than hydrating,” Zeichner notes.
6 Non-Soap Cleansers for Atopic Dermatitis
Shopping for personal care products is often daunting even without the extra challenge of eczema. Here are some fragrance-free non-soap cleansers to look for at the drugstore.
CeraVe Soothing Body Wash for Very Dry Skin
Approved by the National Eczema Association, this body cleanser contains omega-3 fatty acids to help fight skin inflammation.
Aveeno Skin Relief Body Wash
This cleanser features oatmeal, a well-known home remedy for eczema. (The American Academy of Dermatology recommends that people with atopic dermatitis take a “colloidal” bath with finely ground oatmeal for symptom relief.)
Cetaphil PRO Eczema-Prone Skin Body Wash
The goal of this body wash is to cleanse the skin without drying. Patented “Filaggrin” technology allegedly helps the skin hold onto its natural moisture.
Eucerin Eczema Relief Cream Body Wash
This nonfoaming cleanser boasts that it’s nondrying and is especially gentle on eczema. It’s formulated with colloidal oatmeal and ceramides (fatty acids found in skin) to help lock in moisture.
Vanicream Gentle Body Wash
Another National Eczema Association–approved body wash, this cleanser is free of all the potential ingredients that people with eczema should run from (dye, fragrance, lanolin, parabens, sulfates, formaldehyde releasers).
Neutrogena Ultra Gentle Daily Cleanser
Some facial cleansers are too aggressive for people with atopic dermatitis, but this one won’t aggravate skin while it washes away grime and bacteria.

What is tar soap
Tar soap is a special type of soap that contains tar acid obtained from the bark of birch trees and other tree species.
This component gives the soap a dark color and a specific aroma. In addition, tar acid has many beneficial properties for facial skin.
- It has an anti-inflammatory and antiseptic effect.
- Accelerates the healing of minor wounds, calluses and cuts.
- Normalizes the functioning of the sebaceous glands and reduces oily skin.
- Eliminates itching, treats dermatitis and eczema.
- Relieves irritation and redness of the skin.
In addition, tar soap acts as a natural peeling, removing dead skin cells and cleansing pores. It also moisturizes and tones the skin, making it firmer and more elastic.
Nowadays, tar soap is widely used in cosmetology and is becoming more and more popular among people who care about the health and beauty of their skin.
How tar soap affects the skin of the face
Tar soap is a natural and safe remedy for facial skin care. It has a number of useful properties, thanks to which it becomes effective in combating skin problems.
- Skin cleansing. Tar soap perfectly cleanses pores and removes excess sebum. This helps to avoid the appearance of blackheads and pimples.
- Reduce inflammation. The active components of the soap have anti-inflammatory properties and help to alleviate various skin irritations.
- Skin moisturizing. Tar soap moisturizes the skin and restores its natural balance. This is especially important for oily and problematic skin, which often suffer from overdrying.
- Improvement of complexion. Regular use of tar soap helps to make the skin of the face more even and bright. It also helps to narrow the pores and prevent the appearance of age spots.
A well-chosen tar soap can help solve many facial skin problems. But in order to get the maximum effect, it is recommended to choose natural and high-quality products that do not contain components harmful to the skin.
Composition of tar soap
Tar soap is a natural cosmetic product made from natural ingredients such as birch tar, vegetable oil and alkali.
Birch tar contains a lot of benefits for facial skin: it has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal effects. Due to these properties, tar soap is often used to combat acne, seborrhea, and other skin problems.
Vegetable oil, which is added to the composition of tar soap, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, protecting it from dehydration and dryness. This component also helps speed up the process of skin cell regeneration and promotes the formation of a natural protective barrier on the surface of the skin.
Alkali, in turn, is necessary for a chemical reaction to occur and the soap to obtain the desired consistency. However, in tar soap, alkali is used in a minimal amount, which allows you to save all the beneficial properties of tar and oil, which are part of the product.
In sum, all the components of tar soap form a unique composition that helps not only to cope with skin problems, but also enrich it with useful components.
Advantages of tar soap over regular soap
Tar tar soap is known for its unique properties and is enriched with natural ingredients, which makes it more beneficial for the skin than regular soap:
- Cleansing the skin – tar, which is part of the soap, deeply cleanses the pores and rids the skin of excess oil and dirt.
- Eliminate inflammation – thanks to the presence of tar, soap reduces inflammation and improves the healing of wounds and scratches.
- Moisturizing facial – tar soap enriched with glycerin and other natural oils, thanks to which it nourishes and moisturizes the skin.
- Contraindicated for acne – Tar soap may be beneficial for people with skin problems such as acne due to its antiseptic properties.
In general, tar soap is an excellent choice for those who are looking for a more natural and effective way to care for their skin. It will help to get rid of imperfections and maintain a healthy and beautiful appearance for a long time.
How to choose a quality tar soap
Tar tar is one of the most popular face and body care products. It has many beneficial properties, including fighting various skin problems such as acne, eczema, psoriasis and others. However, in order to get the maximum effect from the use of tar soap, you must choose the right product.
Here are some tips to help you choose a quality tar soap:
- Ingredients: Pay attention to the list of ingredients. The more natural ingredients, the better. Avoid products containing artificial colors and flavors.
- Manufacturer: choose tar soap from trusted manufacturers who care about the quality of their products.
- Color and smell: A good tar soap should be dark brown in color and have a specific tar smell. Avoid foods that are too bright or have a strong scent.
- Packaging: it is preferable to choose tar soap in airtight packaging to avoid loss of product quality.
- Reviews: pay attention to the reviews of other buyers. This will help you choose a quality product and avoid buying low-quality tar soap.
Choosing the right tar soap will help you get the most out of it and enjoy healthy, beautiful skin.
Unique tar soap recipes for different skin types
Tar soap is a versatile skin care product. It has antibacterial properties, soothes irritated skin, relieves inflammation and accelerates the healing of minor wounds and scratches.

If you develop pimples, you can use tar soap to cleanse your skin. First, wash your face with warm water to open the pores, then apply tar soap to the skin and lather it in the palms of your hands. Massage the skin for 30 seconds, then wash off the soap with warm water and dry the skin with a towel. Repeat this procedure daily in the morning and evening.

Features of the use of tar soap for certain skin diseases

For example, if you have problems with oily skin and you suffer from blackheads and pimples, then tar soap can be an indispensable tool in this matter. It deeply cleanses the pores, removes excess sebum, allows the skin to breathe and prevents the appearance of new breakouts.
If you have severe flaking of the skin, then tar soap can eliminate this problem. It relieves inflammation, accelerates the healing of small wounds and scratches, improves the protective properties of the skin and strengthens its immunity.
If you have skin conditions such as psoriasis or eczema, then tar soap can be the solution to all your problems. It has an antiseptic, antibacterial and antifungal effect, which helps eliminate inflammation, itching and dry skin.
But do not forget that tar soap is a rather intense remedy, and its use can cause dryness and irritation of the skin if used incorrectly. Therefore, before use, it is recommended to consult a doctor and act according to the instructions.
How to properly store tar soap
Tar soap is a unique cosmetic product that requires special care and storage.
First of all, make sure that the soap is stored in a cool and dry place. The ideal option would be storage in a closed container, away from sunlight and high humidity.
Keep soap away from water. This can lead to loss of properties and melting. When using soap, keep it dry. After use, take it back to the container or on a tray with a special recess so that the water drains and does not linger in the soap.
It is also worth considering that tar soap has a very bright and rich aroma, which can be absorbed by other products. Therefore, you should not store it with other cosmetics or perfumes to avoid damaging its smell and properties.
By following simple storage rules, you can keep all the useful properties of tar soap and use it for a long time.
Myths and truth about tar soap
Tar soap has long gained popularity among people who care about the health and beauty of their skin. However, many myths still circulate around this remedy. Consider some of them and find out the truth about the use of tar soap.
Myth #1: Tar soap has a strong odor that doesn’t go away even after repeated use
No, many people are wrong. Depending on the percentage of tar in the composition of the soap, the smell can be quite stable or completely invisible. Modern production technologies make it possible to obtain tar soap with a pleasant aroma that emphasizes its beneficial properties.
Myth #2: Tar soap is only suitable for the treatment of skin diseases
This myth is also wrong. Tar soap can be used not only for the treatment of skin diseases, but also for daily skin care of the face and body. It is suitable for all skin types and promotes cell regeneration. Due to its anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties, tar soap helps fight acne, blackheads, age spots, and has a calming effect on the skin.
Myth No. 3: Tar soap contains harmful substances
In fact, the composition of tar soap, on the contrary, contains only components that are beneficial for the skin. It consists of natural oils, glycerin, vitamins, minerals, extracts of medicinal plants and, of course, birch tar. This allows us to talk about its beneficial properties and absolute safety for health.
