Red Oil for Pain. SoFasCo Oil, invented in the early 1930s, has powerful antiseptic properties for minor skin irritations. Because it provides speedy pain and itch relief, it soon became a southern household name shortened to "that Red Oil" due to its red color. Today, over 90 years later, SoFasCo Oil is called Red Oil Healing Solution as it continues to be a powerful antiseptic that soothes and helps heal life's little hurts. An old-time slogan, "Got A Little Hurt? Get A Little Red Oil,” was often heard in homes and factories throughout the south because it takes the ouch out of cuts, scrapes, burns, and stings without burning or stinging. Kids love it!
