- Antimicrobial: Helps remove bacteria from the skin.
- Skin Tone: Improves uneven skin tone and reduces the appearance of dark spots.
- Acne: Helps treat acne and reduce inflammation.
- Razor Bumps: Eliminates razor bumps effectively.
- Skin Rashes: Clears some skin rashes and treats fungal infections.
- Dandruff: Fights dandruff on the scalp.
- Exfoliating: Naturally exfoliating, helping reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
- Makeup Removal: Acts as an effective makeup remover.
Important Considerations
While generally safe for most skin types, African Black Soap can irritate some individuals, particularly those with:
- Eczema
- Allergies to dyes, fragrances, or other ingredients
- Sensitivity to sulfur or cocoa
Usage Tips
- Patch Test: Before using, test on a small area like your neck or arm.
- Lather: Rub the soap between your hands to create a lather before applying to the skin.
- Moisturize: Follow up with a moisturizer to keep skin hydrated.
- Store in a Dry Place: Ensure the soap is kept dry after use to extend its shelf life.
Additional Usage Tips
- Start Slowly: Begin with a small amount and avoid daily use if you have sensitive skin.
- Be Careful: If you experience dryness, peeling, or itching, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
- Exfoliate: Use a washcloth or other exfoliating tool such as our soap bags for additional exfoliation.
- Use on Hair: When using on hair, follow with a conditioner for best results.
How to Use:
- Lather on a washcloth or directly on the body. If the soap becomes misshapen or crumbly, it can easily be molded back into form. To prolong the life of your soap, ensure proper drainage after each use to prevent accelerated dissolving.
Pamper your skin with this natural, versatile, and deeply nourishing soap – a must-have in any skincare routine.

Our handcrafted soap bars have a net weight of approximately 4.5 oz (130 g), ensuring a perfect size for long-lasting use while providing the luxurious care your skin deserves.
To ensure your natural soap bars last as long as possible, keep them dry between uses by using a well-draining soap dish or a soap bag that allows air circulation. Avoid leaving them in standing water or under the shower spray. Store unused bars in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and humidity, either in their original wrapping or a breathable container. For added convenience, consider using a soap bag to create a rich lather while keeping the bar dry, and hang it up between uses. Proper care will help extend the life of your soap and maintain its quality!
