i have been using this product for almost a month now... i have to say i absolutely hate it! you are soo right about the drying part... i have sensitive skin and it drys my skin soo bad... my skin became flaky, red, and itchy. i have to constantly reapply moisturizer through out the day just to calm down the burning.
I like that this African Black Soap comes in a tub and is like a paste. Where can I purchase it in USA, San Francisco Bay Area? I've googled it and can only find the hard soap versions. Thx! 4 any 411.
i have this version of this soap and i bought it for my mom and i to use, and i have to say it makes our skin really soft and very very clean. i have noticed that my pores are shrinking. this version of black soap works for us. So glad i purchased it.
black soap turns that color when moisture hits it. Yes it is a brown color, but when in contact with water, the soap itself turns dark, especially when melted to a liquid
there is an african festival in my neighborhood and i bought some shea butter, but i was wondering if the african black soap is good to unclog pores really well.
@xebexe5695 every damn where. In brooklyn on atlantic avenue near 4th avenue. In fort greene on fulton street. In crown heights on eastern parkway and Utica. and uptown 125 street. Along Malcomn X blvd. In Queens on Jamaica Ave. They been selling that stuff all over the city for decades.
Africans are great, they dont use chemicals to make a soap. They instead take things from nature the way its supposed to be and make something amazing.
How often does everyone wash their face with black soap? I'm curious!! I'm thinking about switching to every other day. I have oily-combination skin and I am thinking about cutting down on it, because too much of anything is never really good if you know what I mean.
to sstupidssmile, i use the "raw african black soap". You can get it on Ebay or any other sites on the internet. But make sure it say "raw" and does NOT contain any shea butter at all.
It took about 5 days for my skin to clear up. I had a breakout on my forehead from stress. Stress breakouts are the hardest to clear up and the raw soap worked.
Wash your face with it in the morning and evening and follow with a good moisturizer
I'm contemplating between using the raw blk soap and the one you can buy at any store. Which works better? or do they work about the same? I'm thinking the unrefined because it has no additives.
It just seems like you know and have already compared the two.
@sstupidssmile I am an African and we call it "Oson Dudu" or "Alata" soap..i think the "Alata" name looks like it might have originated from Nigeria but i think most Africans know about it.
dudu olson African soap is the best soap is the best soap I've tried - I really hope these things stay the same and the sellers and producers don't have to skimp on the process to make more money. But I love to support these products, and they are so good!
hey thanks for the review. i just got some black soap from a local store online, and from the pictures it looks like it would be crumbly and hard, but when it arrived it was in paste form like what you have in the video so i thought it might not be the real deal. but i guess it could come in a gummy paste form, too.
I recently purchased some African black soap. I love it. Makes my skin nice and soft. I also use it to shampoo my hair. Works wonders. I bought mine (along with shea butter) from agbangakarite.
You guys...that's not African black soap. Or maybe it's East African black soap because pure West African black :p It's a whitish color almost. Some are very dark, though..I suggest getting the real thing. If it has a name brand on it, it's been messed with!

I love this Raw African Black Soap. It completely cleared up my skin and my pores have shrunken.
It is very important to follow with a good moisturizer.
Make sure it says "100% Raw" when purchasing this soap. There are a lot of wannabes Black soap that are not the real deal.

Just make sure if you get ABS that it lathers WHITE or very very light BROWN, because that is 100% ABS, if it doesn't it has chemicals in it!

her soap is black soap. It just doesnt contain shea butter in it and has a high water content which makes it gummy. I use the same type.

I agree black soap is wonderful. I have very oil and blemish prone skin. I immediately follow up with shea butter as my moisturizer.

Yes, many.
CoastalScents sells it too. (check the reviews)
And it's great. And also works better than any expensive anti wrinkle treatment in the world. It really improves te quality of your skin.
