Traditional skincare from West Africa, made with nature’s purest ingredients

  • Imported directly from Western Africa—unrefined, authentic, and full of heritage
  • Naturally rich in skin-loving minerals and antioxidants
  • Beloved for supporting clearer skin and soothing common skin concerns
  • Rustic in appearance—each piece is uniquely shaped and textured
  • Semi-soft and crumbly by nature due to traditional potash (plant-based lye), not a hard commercial bar
  • Lathers beautifully with a soft, silky feel—especially effective in hard water
  • Ideal for face and body; great for oily, blemish-prone, or combination skin

Why it Works:

  • Palm Kernel Oil – Adds firmness and silky lather
  • Coconut Oil – Boosts cleansing power with rich, fluffy bubbles
  • Shea Butter – Deeply conditions and nourishes with skin-softening moisture

To Use:
Lather in hands or with a cloth, then gently cleanse skin. Avoid leaving the soap in standing water—due to its soft texture, it can break down quickly if not kept dry between uses.

Ingredients:
Palm Kernel Oil, Coconut Oil, Shea Butter, Potash (Plantain/wood ash-derived natural lye)

Note: Due to the handmade nature of African Black Soap, shape, texture, and color will vary with each bar. Store in a cool, dry place to preserve freshness.

oap is imported from western Africa.  Credited by many to aid in many skin care issues, this rustic soap is growing in mainstream popularity.

This raw soap doesn’t look like regular bar soap as it isn't smooth or uniform in shape.  The texture of the soap is semi-soft and it can be a bit crumbly but never hard like regular bar soap.  This is because African black soap is made from naturally occurring lye found in plantain or wood ashes. This form of lye, called potash, creates a softer, more malleable bar that will absorb water easily so it's best to keep this out of direct water or it will break down faster than it should.

A look at its key ingredients:

Palm Kernel Oil contributes to the hardness of the soap, helping to create a bar that lasts longer, promotes lather stability, and adds a silky feel to the soap.

Coconut Oil contributes to the hardness of the soap, helping to create a bar that lasts longer, and provides a fluffy, bubbly lather to the soap, even in hard water conditions.

Shea Butter contributes to the hardness of the bar, lather stability and is wonderful for skin conditioning.   Shea contains a large percentage of ingredients that do not react with lye, thus remaining in the soap to nourish your skin. 

For optimal freshness, store the product in a cool, dry place away from humidity.

Raw black African soap

My skin was hating me, so I tried this and been using it for 2 weeks now and 3 days in my skin was clearer, softer and less red. I love this product and I will be buying more soon.

African Black Soap

I like using this soap to wash my face prior to shaving. It leaves my skin feeling soft and easier to shave when compared to using regular face soap. After shaving, my skin feels soft and smooth.

Raw African Black Soap

I've been using this product for about a week. I could see a HUGE difference in my face within about two days. I've been using the black soap on my entire body and my skin is saying thank you! I will purchase more in the future.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!

I use this primarily as my face wash and it truly deeply cleans my skin and got rid of the redness in my checks and blemishes I was experiencing due to getting older. To me it is a pure cleanser that you only need to use a slight bit of the soap as it lathers up so lusciously and doesn't feel drying to my face. I really cannot live without using this...it is the absolute best cleanser!!
