What Is African Black Soap?
With natural antibacterial and exfoliating properties, African black soap gently improves skin texture and tone. The soap also reduces inflammation and may help treat signs of aging, like dark spots or wrinkles. You can use African black soap on your face, hands, body, and even your hair.
African black soap was first produced in West Africa centuries ago. Today, its exact ingredients depend on where it is made.
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.
