About our African Black Soap

100%  Pure & Natural Raw African Black Soap, Organic, Unrefined Hand Made in GHANA,  West Africa Completely Organic Ingredients, Unrefined, Imported From west Africa Republic of  GHANA. This African Black Soap is authentic high quality AFRICAN BLACK SOAP traditionally hand made in AFRICA. We have been very particular about sourcing the best African Black Soap and this product is authentic and truly gorgeous.

This AMAZING African Black Soap is made from the ash of locally harvested plants and barks such a plantain, cocoa pods, palm tree leaves, and shea tree bark. Many years of use by people around the world has proven it to be an amazing natural alternative for those struggling with troubled skin.

 How is it made?

First the leaves and bark are sun-dried and then roasted in a kettle or pot at an even, constant temperature, which is important to ensure colour, texture and smell. Then water and various oils - palm oil, coconut oil, palm kernel oil (including shea butter and cocoa pod powder) - are added to the mixture and stirred for at least a day. After that, the "soap" is left to set for two weeks to cure. Different tribes and communities in Africa have adopted their own specific blend of oils and cooking techniques, which can be seen in the different colour variations among black soap. 

 What is it good for?

African Black Soap has been used for a long time to treat troubled skin. It's good for fine wrinkles, dark spots, eczema, razor bumps, and clearing blemishes, acne, and rashes. It is also used as a light exfoliator. The soap can also be used on your hair, to treat scalp irritations. The plantain skins give the soap Vitamin A & E, and iron. Because the soap has the highest shea butter content of any soap, it also offers some UV protection. The soap is also good for sensitive skin, meaning its a good option for babies or the elderly.

RECOMMENDED STORAGE:

African Black Soap absorbs water, therefore please don’t let it sit in a puddle of water  after use. Keep it dry to keep it from dissolving. Ideally, place the bar on a wooden soap dish with slats (or similar soap dish with drainage) to allow the soap to drain. Ideally just cut/ break off chunks that you are using and put them in your soap dish with slats, keeping the rest in an airtight container, plastic wrap, ziplock bag, the resealable pouch it comes in or similar in a cool dry storage area.

Please note that the colour/texture size of this product can vary slightly between batches. Shape of the bar may vary.  This product is handmade traditionally in Africa and how hard/soft/ dark the soap is will vary between batches. This product is for external use.
