African black soap has been used for centuries in West Africa. It is made from all-natural ingredients including shea butter, honey and coconut oil, making it moisturising and soothing. Sun-dried plantain skins are used as a natural alternative to lye - making it gentle on your skin.
A natural acne treatment, our African black soap is handmade by women-run co-operatives in Nigeria who use traditional techniques passed down through generations.
How to use: black soap is a little different from commonly used lye-based soaps. It is soft and will soften further in water so we recommend keeping your soap in its tin (included). ọsẹ abuwẹ translates to "soap you pinch to wash" - to use, pinch a little of the soft soap off to use at one time.
