Organic Raw African Black Soap Body and Face Cleanser

Organic Raw African Black Soap Body and Face Cleanser with Plant Antibacterial Dark Brown Fragrance Nylon Exfoliating Towel & Storage Bag. African black soap is traditionally made in West Africa from locally harvested plants like plantain skins and leaves, cocoa pods, and shea tree bark. The plants are sun-dried and roasted to produce ash, giving the soap its iconic dark color. The ashes are then combined with palm oil, coconut oil, and shea butter before the mixture is left to cure. The resulting soap is chock-full of antibacterial oils, phytochemicals, and antioxidants, making it a deeply nourishing treat for nearly all skin types. Raw vs. refined soap Raw African black soap comes in a bar soap with a dark brown color and malleable texture. It often contains tiny chunks of plant matter that add to the black soap’s exfoliating properties. Raw black soap is free from added fragrance and its natural ingredients create an earthy scent. Refined African black soap comes in a hard bar with brown or black coloring. Some refined black soaps contain artificial fragrances, parabens, and sulfates. weight: 8 Oz.
