Benefits of Black Soap from Africa

Black Soap from Africa is also known as ose dudu and anago soap. It is made from the combination of burnt leaves of plantain and palm as well as banana bark, cocoa pods and shea butter. All ingredients are burned in a pot, and coconut oil, palm kernel oil and palm oil are added to the mixture, which is stirred for 24 hours by hand, after which the paste is set to cure for two weeks.

Skin Irritation

African black soap is thought to help soften rough skin and relieve skin irritation caused by acne and rashes. It is even considered beneficial for treating skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, which is when skin cells grow quickly on the surface, forming itchy and dry scales.Ingredients present in the plantain leaves are thought to be the primary components that give Black Soap its healing properties. Some of these ingredients include iron as well as vitamin A, K and E.

Black Soap contains oils that are beneficial to the scalp and hair, leaving it clean and shiny. It also contains glycerin, which is a humectant, meaning it promotes the retention of moisture. This humectant action will attract and retain moisture in the hair shaft.

Avoid using black soap if you have oily hair.

Cleanser

African Black Soap is highly cleansing to the skin and hair and can help in the treatment of dandruff. It contains no chemicals and therefore helps restore natural skin balance while still acting upon harmful bacteria that may cause infection. It is especially beneficial in cleansing off makeup. It may also even-out skin discoloration and minimize fine lines and wrinkles.
You can also use it to clean wounds on any part of the skin by adding it to your bath water and soaking in it for at least 15 minutes. Since Black Soap is chemical free, it will not foam as much as conventional soaps.

Your first week of using Black Soap your skin may feel tight and dry, but this is because it is stripping the oils and dead skin and other impurities. Keep using it and the Pure African Black Soap will soon balance your skin chemistry naturally.

More Information about Pure African Black Soap

Authentic traditional African black soap is a soft soap and it is physically impossible to get it into uniform shapesand sizes. Just like our pure, raw Shea Butter, our Authentic Raw African Black Soap is made in the heart of Ghana, Africa by a real African tribe using the traditional methods and ingredients.  It is made with 48 percent pure, organic unrefined Shea Butter and wild crafted Virgin Palm Kernal Oil, the ash of dried plantains, banana leaves & bark from the local Agow tree.  Aloe has been added for fragrance and additional conditioning. What's more, there are NO chemicals, NO animal fats, NO preservatives, NO colorants or color enhancers and NO artificial fragrances added to our Raw African Black Soap.

Soap is the oldest cleanser around.  It is created by a chemical reaction between oils, water and lye called saponification.  Although lye is used to make soap, there is no lye left after saponification is complete.  There is no such thing as a bar soap that is made without using lye.  The African Black Soap is made using natural lye that is found in the ashes of the plantain drying process that is the best in the world.  So even the lye used in this traditional soap is all natural and chemical free!

African Black Soap has been historically used and clinically proven effective in the treatment of acne, eczema, psoriasis, scars, pock marks, uneven skin coloration, compromised skin texture, dandruff, dull or limp hair, fungus, athletes foot, chronic foot odor, and so much more.
