African black soap acts gently to improve skin texture and tone. The soap also reduces inflammation and may help treat some signs of aging like dark spots or wrinkles. You can use African black soap on your face, hands, body — even your hair.
Generally, African black soap doesn’t contain lye (a common soap component). It’s usually unscented without dyes or other additives. Most African black soaps contain one or more of these ingredients:
Cocoa pod ash, cocoa powder or cocoa butter.
Coconut oil.
Palm kernel oil and palm oil.
Plantain skin ash, leaves or bark.
Shea butter.
This is a great soap along with shea butter for day on beach, camping, hiking.
