Unlike many modern cleansing products, traditional black soap is made from natural ingredients such as plant ash, cocoa, shea butter and oils. The result is a simple cleanser with deep roots in craft and tradition. Our black soap is handmade using traditional methods by women\u2019s cooperatives in Ghana. By preserving the original production processes, the soap remains in its most authentic form, without unnecessary additives, perfume or fillers.<\/p>\n<h2>What is black soap good for?<\/h2>\n<p>Black soap is valued for its cleansing and gently exfoliating feel. It is often used by people with oily, combination or blemish-prone skin, but also by anyone who wants to give dry skin a more thorough cleanse from time to time. Many also use it on the scalp when it needs to feel fresher, cleaner and more balanced. That is why many choose black soap when their skin or scalp feels:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Oily or shiny<\/li>\n<li>Combination<\/li>\n<li>Prone to blemishes<\/li>\n<li>Congested or heavy<\/li>\n<li>Dry but in need of a more thorough cleanse<\/li>\n<li>In need of a fresher-feeling scalp<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTraditional<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCleansing<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExfoliating<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFor face and body<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFor hair and scalp<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNatural ingredients<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHandmade<\/p>\n<h2>How do you use black soap?<\/h2>\n<p>Black soap can be used on the face, body and scalp when you want a simple but thorough cleanse.
