Product Details

African Black Soap has been part of West African skincare customs for generations, and this 16 oz Premium cut is handmade in Ghana using those same time-tested methods. Rather than a mass-produced bar built around synthetic surfactants, this soap is cooked and cured the old way, using cocoa pod husk and plantain skin ash as its cleansing base - a process that has stayed largely unchanged for good reason.

The formula brings together palm kernel oil, coconut oil, and stearin oil for a rich, conditioning lather, alongside unrefined shea butter for moisture, natural Vitamin E for antioxidant support, and natural sodium as part of the time-tested saponification process. Cocoa pod husk and plantain skin ash - the signature ingredients of authentic African Black Soap - give the bar its naturally alkaline, deep-cleansing character, lifting away everyday oil, dirt, and surface buildup.

This is a soap, not a treatment: used as part of a regular cleansing routine, it can help the skin look and feel less oily and congested, though no soap or cleanser can clear, treat, or cure acne, and this bar should not be relied on as a substitute for dermatological care. What it does offer is a genuinely thorough, natural cleanse suited to all skin types, including sensitive skin, for both face and body use.

At 16 oz, this premium cut is generously sized and made to last well beyond a standard bar, making it a practical everyday staple rather than an occasional treat. The unrefined shea butter worked into the base helps offset the deep-cleansing action, so skin is left clean without the tight, stripped feeling that harsher bars can cause.

Every bar is ethically sourced, with production that directly supports small Ghanaian farming communities who grow and process the cocoa and plantain ingredients this soap depends on. Choosing this bar means choosing a genuinely time-tested product with a supply chain that benefits the people behind it, not just a marketing label.

Shelf Life & Storage

Shelf Life. Typical shelf life is 12–24 months when stored properly; the printed date on the packaging, where present, always takes precedence over this general guidance.

Storage. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity; let the bar dry completely between uses on a well-draining dish.

Safety Instructions

Patch Test. Patch test is recommended for sensitive skin before first full use; raw black soap is more alkaline than processed soaps, so start gradually.

External Use. For external use only; keep away from the eyes.

Discontinue If Needed. Stop use and rinse thoroughly with clean water if irritation occurs.

Caution & Disclaimer

Caution. For external use only. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Avoid contact with eyes, broken skin, and sensitive areas.

Disclaimer. Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Always consult with a healthcare professional before use, especially if pregnant, nursing, or under medical care. Individual results may vary.

Cosmetic use only. This is a cosmetic cleansing bar, not a medical or dermatological treatment. Any change in how skin looks or feels is cosmetic and temporary, varies from person to person, and is not a substitute for professional dermatological care. No soap or cleanser cures, treats, or clears acne; this bar may help with the appearance of oily, congested skin as part of a routine.
