Diabetic Sores: “While visiting my daughter in Oklahoma I got a bar of “Grandma’s Lye Soap”. It is helping my diabetic foot when nothing else would. We also cut the bars in small squares and put a small piece in with my white laundry. I have been giving a few bars to our friends who are diabetic to use on their feet. They think it helps also. We plan on keeping “Grandma’s Lye Soap” around for a while.”

Eczema and Allergies: “Our five year old son has eczema quite severely and we have tried many products including steroid creams, prescription creams and many home remedies. Due to the severity of his condition, we ask him to wear long pants in the summer and try to avoid anything that makes his condition worsen. Recently our allergist suggested we try “Grandma’s Lye Soap”. He uses it as bath soap and we have been so pleased. He felt immediate relief and told me to buy some for his school so he could use it to wash his hands while in school. Our son takes quite a bit of medicine to control his allergies and to find a product that does not have side effects and provides such relief is wonderful!”

Lichen Sclerosis (Diaper Rash): “I have Lichen Sclerosis, a chronic condition resembling diaper rash. At its worst only strong steroids can ease the burning. I am bathing with “Grandma’s Lye Soap” every day, and leaving the soap on a few minutes before washing it off has been an aid in controlling the burning and keeps me comfortable. There is no cure for this condition, so I am thrilled that I found something to help me cope.”

Soap Allergies: “I have developed an allergy to many soaps and I bought your soap from cracker barrel and loved it. Thank you so much for making these soaps. I am not allergic to it.”

Diabetic Sores: “I am a retired nurse, 78 years old and live alone. Being a diabetic, I am careful of what I use on my feet. Recently, I became aware of a burning, itching on my left leg on the ankle. The area was very red with several small bumps. I bathed my foot with warm water and “Grandma’s Lye Soap”. It stopped the burning and itching so I used it again before bedtime. I have also used this soap for bathing and have shampooed with it - my gray hair is clean and shiny. Thanks Grandma!”

Insect Bites: “I had called your company about a week ago regarding your product and its effectiveness on bedbug bites. I have to say with great pride and joy, that it has really improved my legs and arms! They look a lot better than before. In fact, they’re almost gone. I am very impressed with the way the soap works.”

Dry Skin: “I am on my fifth bar of “Grandma’s Lye Soap” and I love this product. I have oily facial skin but often when using regular soaps I end up with dry shins etc. I am a long distance runner, so my skin is often exposed to more environmental conditions than most, plus as a wildlife biologist I am outside a great deal of the time. ….I do not see the dry areas on my shins or knees as I have in the past. I also like the fact your soap is not perfumed so after I shower and put on some type of fragrance, the two are not fighting with one another.”

Psoriasis: “I have psoriasis and for years I have applied prescription ointments, creams and shampoos on the affected areas and nothing has worked. The lesions have gotten worse over the years and doctors have not been able to prescribe anything that I haven’t already used to alleviate the lesions and associated pain. My Mother gave me a bar of “Grandma’s Lye Soap”. Within four days of using the soap, the lesions cleared up and I no longer suffer with open lesions. This has changed my life as I can wear shorts and dark colored shirts without being embarrassed.”

Intense Itching: “A few moths ago I was given a bar of “Grandma’s Lye Soap”. To my great surprise, years of intense itching were completely gone within two weeks. Dermatologists had, for decades, tried various creams and soaps, none of which helped the problem. Then came “Grandma’s Lye Soap”, and the itching stopped. You have made my life so much better! I am grateful.”

Medication-related Itching: For years now, I have had a rare liver disease and one of the side effects of the medication has been a recurring rash and unbearable itching on my back and scalp. Additional medication to stop the itching has all been unsuccessful. . .I purchased your product at a “Cracker Barrel” restaurant and began to use it daily. After a few days, the itching all but quit. It’s been over a month now and it has not returned. I have finally found relief and my hair has its shine back. I am a believer in your product!
