So I’ve been hearing all the hype about African black soap for ages and finally decided to give it a shot. I got this 100g bar with shea butter, and wow, I’m genuinely impressed.
First off, the smell is so earthy and natural it’s not overwhelming or perfumery, which I really appreciate. You can tell this is the real deal. When I first used it, I noticed the texture was slightly grainy, which makes it feel like a gentle exfoliant. It lathers up nicely too, like a creamy foam, but it doesn’t feel like it’s stripping my skin at all.
Now for the results, My skin has never felt this clean and soft at the same time. I’ve been using it on both my face and body, and I swear my skin is smoother and just… healthier-looking. I have super finicky skin that’s prone to breakouts, and this soap has actually helped calm down some of the redness. My face has a little glow going on, and it’s not that oily shine kind of glow it’s the “wow, your skin is thriving” kind.
The shea butter in it is such a game-changer too. My skin doesn’t feel tight or dry after using it, which has been my issue with other soaps in the past. I still follow up with my moisturizer, but honestly, my skin already feels so hydrated after washing with this.
Overall, I’m officially obsessed. If you’re on the fence, just go for it. This soap has become a staple in my routine, and I’m already planning to stock up on more. Pro tip: store it in a soap dish so it lasts longer it’s totally worth it.
