If you haven’t heard of it before or used this beautiful soap then you now have the opportunity.  This is an ancient soap used for centuries in West Africa and still made in its traditional way.   It is 100% completely natural. It has a mild gentle smell.  The lye used in the saponification process is made from the ash of dried plantain leaves and bark from the local Agow tree (which is harvested sustainably).  This process is what gives it its unique dark brown/black colour.

Black Soap is much softer than most commerical soaps so it must be kept on a soap rack that allows it to dry out properly.  A little goes a very long way with this soap due to its wonderful creamy lather.  As this  is a pure product you may occasionally get a gritty bit so rub it in your hands first before applying. Important when using on babies, young children and sensitive body parts. 

The Virgin Palm Kernel Oil used in this soap is grown from a sustainable source in West Africa
