SOA-Itch Be Gone

I came down with a severe skin irritation, that couldn't get to stop itching. Tried everything. This was the cure worked after second use. Irritation and rash gone. Doesn't smell the best but, Worked and that was the most important. Lather up and left on for 10 to 20 minutes then washed off .

I developed a "contact" rash from an unknown source on the back of my neck. Within days, it spread to the front of my neck, ears, then eventually face. Doctor prescribed 2 types of steroid anti-itch meds. Neither showed any results after 2-3 weeks. In the meantime, I ordered this soap. The first night I used it I felt relief! By the next morning, there was also visible improvement. By day 2, it was barely there! Amazing and grateful! Not only did it get rid of itch and rash, it creates such a luxurious lather and leaves skin so soft. A little goes a long way. So while pricey, it's worth it!

I keep this bar in my shower. It is so perfect for acne control and overall skin health. It rinses well and lathers good. The scent is definitely sulfury but it doesn't last outside of the shower.

I was looking for a product that would work as well as the old Fostex line, and tried this. I'm cursed with very delicate skin, and the recommended strength of 10% sulfur soap just fries me, so any help it might give is overwhelmed by the frying. I found this product helpful in two ways, First, I tried it on its own as a "leave-the-lather-on" treatment (after being fried badly). To my astonishment, my fried skin healed literally overnight. The emolients in this soap, together with the lower sulfur content, are amazingly healing and protective. But, the sulfur content of this product wasn't quite high enough to address the initial problem. So, I tried something. This may work for others with delicate skin too. I bought 10% sulfur soap from Braunfels, and used both Braunfels 10% soap and this product together. I lathered my hands with the 10% soap first (just rotate the bar in a wet hand, about 3x), then lathered with the Itch-Be-Gone until I had copious suds. Smear that on the affected area and let it sit. Rinse after about three minutes. Miracle! No more fried skin, and there's enough sulfur in this blend, apparently, to do the trick. Best of all, I've been using this combo daily and tolerating it very well. Plus, it works as a shampoo, if done the same way. And there's much less sulfur smell than with anything else I tried. I'll be writing a similar review for the Braunfels product, because anyone with sensitive skin may find this helps, as it did me.

Purchased a beautiful quarter horse mare from Michigan four years ago. She arrived in show quality condition and I was very happy with her riding performance. Her first summer in Arizona seemed hard on her from the heat, flies and no-seeums. Over the last three years she developed sweet itch each summer and it went into maybe December each year that she stopped rubbing. This was a severe sweet itch. She rubbed her entire main and top of her tail off down to bleeding skin each summer. I tried: tea tree oil, coconut oil, listerene, apple cider vinegar, castor oil, daily water rinses, no soaps, MTG? MTC?, pure sulfur, charcoal mixed in water, mixture is lavender coconut oil and like five other oils or tinctures, internal medicines from the vet and benedryl ...the list goes on. Needless to say this itching caused her to have a frantic personality in which she couldn't pay attention to me. I started to think she was dangerous and had a condition i couldn't get rid of and I didn't want to be around her. She would start itching her mane on anything she could at any time with her full body weight behind it. Spring arrived this year and later the flies and gnats. I watched her go from a reasonable horse to that frantic attitude in a matter of one week. Searched and search on the net and found reviews on this soap. Even though all the other reviews of all the products i had already tried said the same thing I decided ok I will try this soap and order a full body fly sheet. Give the soap a couple weeks to work then just cover her entire body so the biting creatures can't get to her. Five days ago I received this soap- tried it the day it arrived. After soaking just her mane and top of tail letting it sit for five minutes then rinsing, I expected her to stop rubbing while it was wet then resume her neck rubbing within 15 minutes. The mane and tail dried and she stood there looking at me. I waited for 45 minutes..she started to walk around the stall area i thought ok here it comes..She just came back to me and looked at me. I carefully brushed her mane and tail then left for two hours, came back and not one hair was standing up or showing signs of rubbing. Went through this process for three days going out to her stall area every two hours, brushing the main and tail, leaving - coming back..still no rubbing.. It is now day five. Am I imagining this? From a single five minute soak of this soap lather this mare stopped..just STOPPED rubbing from sweet itch. To say I am amazed is an understatement. I have notified my vet of this result and he too is shocked. The manufacturer of this soap has changed the life of my horse and my relationship with my horse. I have the horse i bought back! If her condition changes back i will post that update here..I have hope again! And I hope no one sees anything more from me here other than to say it is still working.

This definitely helped my dog from itching

I purchased this to deal with itch on my quarter-horse. He had never itched before, even when the others did, so it was an unusual situation. After trying every other option, (anti-fungal sprays, anti-itch creams and baths, etc) I decided to give this soap a try. It is fairly easy to apply and Jake (the quarter-horse) offered not objection to the feel or smell of the soap. The only problem is, it really had not effect on his itching. I followed the directions to apply and leave it on for a while with no effect. Now I must admit I do not know what caused his itching, (we have him on Dex now which is working) so I cannot say for sure that this soap would not work on some other problem. However, for our purposes, it was ineffective.

Seriously...it works wonderfully, amazing formula. Both owner and pet are happy. Omg like the first bathe with the soap, we were a tad apprehensive yet as stated on the instructions to lather and set in for an hr. I did less than half an hr. due to the 60 degree weather so we'll shoot for another bathing session, lather and set for a nice hr. :) great product over all for the mange prob. I bathe him with my bare hands and bores brush also had no prob with chemical effect per my sensitivity. Gosh..I researched that there's a SOA Soap for humans known to work wonders as the particular soap we're all whooped over. Anyway, I noticed the flies are still a buzzing prob after the bath so if any of y'all have the same prob, I highly recommend spraying a mix of 3/4 cup h2o with 1 tbsp of essential lavender oil or some sort of scented essential oil.
